Eli Lilly stock was soaring Thursday after the pharmaceutical company said it had successfully completed a trial of a new weight-loss pill.
Shares jumped 11% to $817 in premarket trading. Futures tracking the benchmark S&P 500 were up 0.5%.
The surge came after Mounjaro and Zepbound developer Lilly said it had completed a Phase 3 trial for its orforglipron pill. The trial showed that the pill is safe to a level comparable with injectable weight-loss drugs.
