AIM - WINNERS

Scancell Holdings PLC, up 25% at 11.52 pence, 12-month range 8.65p-29.40p. The cancer immunotherapies developer says it has expanded its Modi-1 trial for the use of checkpoint inhibitors on cancer patients. Scancell says the safety review committee has approved the addition of two new cohorts of 21 patients each. This move follows the successful completion of cohort four of the trial, which showed that patients with renal, head and neck cancer who received at least two doses of Modi-1 combined with CPI tolerated the treatment well, with no safety concerns.

Tertiary Minerals PLC, up 12% at 0.10p, 12-month range 0.083p-0.31p. The mineral exploration and development company says it has received permission from the Forest Department of Zambia to carry out soil sampling in forested areas at its Mukai and Mushima North project licenses. The firm says it is exploring the two license areas for copper, with two targets, C1 and A1, identified at Mushima. Chair Patrick Cheetham says: "Our objective is to now complete soil sampling over the exciting targets we have developed at Mushima North and Mukai as well as at our Konkola West Project. This will enable us to prioritise our Zambian Projects for follow up drilling having already completed similar programmes at our Lubuila and Jacks Projects."

AIM - LOSERS

Aptamer Group PLC, down 45% at 2.64p, 12-month range 2.00p-100.00p. The provider of Optimer binders for use in therapeutics, diagnostics, bioprocessing and research says it has terminated its sale process after announcing it had conditionally completed a fundraise. The company says it conditionally raised GBP3.6 million, and accordingly the board decided to terminate the formal sale process. "The company is not in discussions with any party in relation to a sale and is not in receipt of any approaches," says Aptamer. The company also reveals that Chair Ian Gilham and Interim Chief Executive Officer & Chief Financial Officer Rob Quinn have resigned, effective from August 21. The company announced that it had appointed Steve Hull as chair from the same date, and promoted Andrew Rapson, current head of finance, to CFO.

Jadestone Energy PLC, down 32% at 23.70p, 12-month range 23.00p-103.00p. The oil and gas production company focused on the Asia-Pacific region says production is temporarily shut at Montara floating production storage and offloading facility offshore Australia due to a gas alarm in tank 4S. It says the tank will be emptied, cleaned and inspected over the next few weeks. Production at Montara had only resumed in March after closing down in August of last year for repair activities. Chief Executive Officer Paul Blakeley says: "While disappointing and frustrating to have to shut in Montara again, we will find and repair any additional defect while continuing with the overall planned programme of inspection of the storage tanks on the FPSO. The safety of our personnel, as well as the long-term integrity of the asset, are paramount. We will provide a further update once the inspection of tank 4S is complete."
