Latest Mesoblast (ASX:MSB) News

Rare earths, lithium and antimony stocks drove the week, while a handful of capital raisings and profit warnings hit hard. The biggest gains came from drilling wins and deal news. The sharpest falls came where investors faced dilution, weaker earnings or takeover friction.

Small-cap healthcare names produced the biggest share-price swings this week, while larger names advanced on sales growth, trial progress and fresh contracts. Investors rewarded companies that showed clear commercial traction, but fundraising and weak follow-through punished others.

Mesoblast Limited (ASX:MSB, Nasdaq:MESO) has received FDA Investigational New Drug clearance to initiate a pivotal clinical trial of its cell therapy Ryoncil in children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, aiming to address inflammation-driven disease progression.

Mesoblast Limited (ASX:MSB, Nasdaq:MESO) reported net sales of US$30.3 million for its FDA-approved cellular therapy Ryoncil in the March quarter, bringing total revenue since launch close to US$100 million. Strong sales in February and March offset January’s seasonal dip.

Cannabis and psychedelics delivered the week’s biggest winner, while a cluster of smaller caps slid on fresh losses, leadership change, and near-term uncertainty. Investors kept paying up for FDA clearances and reimbursement wins, but punished businesses where early pops quickly disappeared.

Mesoblast Limited reported its first commercial sales of FDA-approved Ryoncil, generating $48.7 million in net product sales for the half-year ended December 31, 2025, while reducing its net loss by 16%. The company also secured a $125 million five-year credit facility, restructuring its debt to support ongoing commercialization and development.

Two capital raisings and one brutal reset set the tone, even as several companies posted clean growth or strong clinical updates. Radiopharmaceuticals kept delivering good news, but investors still punished supply-chain and cash needs fast.

Mesoblast Limited is set to release its half-year financial results and operational update, spotlighting its FDA-approved cell therapy and expanding international partnerships.

A handful of healthcare names did the heavy lifting this week, driven by FDA wins, guideline upgrades, and big shifts in sales and cashflow. The flip side: several clinical-stage stocks fell hard as investors stayed picky about near-term proof and funding.

Mesoblast Limited reported a 60% jump in Ryoncil sales to US$35 million for the December quarter, alongside securing a US$125 million credit facility that enhances its financial flexibility and supports ongoing clinical development.

A small-cap healthcare rally had a clear centre: distribution deals, US regulatory steps, and big cheques. Osteopore, Echo IQ and Anteris led the week, while a handful of names slipped despite solid operational updates.

Mesoblast has received encouraging feedback from the FDA on its cell therapy rexlemestrocel-L, showing meaningful pain relief and potential opioid use reduction in chronic low back pain patients. The company’s ongoing Phase 3 trial aims to confirm these benefits and advance regulatory approval.
