Description: RCKT Rocket Pharmaceuticals October 28, 2025
Rocket Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:RCKT) is a late-stage biotech focused on AAV-based gene therapies for rare, high-mortality diseases in the U.S., with a pipeline that spans preclinical to Phase 2 trials.
Its AAV program includes RP-A501 for Danon disease (Phase 2), RP-A601 targeting Plakophilin-2 arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (Phase 1), and a preclinical BAG3-dilated cardiomyopathy candidate; the lentiviral (LV) platform advances RP-L201 (Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I), RP-L102 (Fanconi Anemia) and RP-L301 (Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency).
Key financial metrics (as of Q2 2024) show a market capitalization of roughly $120 million, cash and equivalents of $45 million, and a monthly cash burn of about $6 million, giving the company an estimated runway of 7–8 months without additional financing.
The gene-therapy sector is driven by a projected CAGR of ~15 % through 2030, buoyed by FDA’s accelerated pathways for rare diseases and increasing payer willingness to reimburse curative therapies, which could amplify the commercial upside of Rocket’s orphan-drug pipeline.
