The biotechnology company had announced positive study results for its DCCR tablets on Tuesday.

Soleno Therapeutics stock fell sharply Wednesday, reversing a small portion of its meteoric gains from the previous session.

But smaller biopharmaceutical stocks are notoriously volatile. Soleno stock dropped 15% to $22.90 in recent trading Wednesday, although the shares are still up about 1,056% so far this year, largely thanks to Tuesday’s surge. The company has a market value of $268 million. Prader-Willi Syndrome affects metabolism, and its hallmark symptom is hyperphagia—a chronic feeling of intense, persistent hunger and an intense drive to consume food. Soleno said Tuesday that DCCR showed promise in addressing hyperphagia in a recent clinical development program, and spurring its stock to take off.
