Rare disease drug developer Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. is expected to hit the market next week — the first of a new wave of biotech initial public offerings — with an IPO that could raise nearly $95 million. The Novato company, founded by former BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. chief medical officer Emil Kakkis, last week priced 4.8 million shares in its IPO at $14 to $17 per share. Ultragenyx, which would trade on the NASDAQ exchange as “RARE,” has four drugs in clinical trials.
