We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Dr Smith has also been on a Fox hunt last week….
Sorry I meant Dox hunt
My perfect DX sale would be the whole division along with affimer diagnostic IP.
Small royalties on future affimer diagnostics would be a bonus.
Then they could concentrate on the therapeutics division getting AVA6000 through phase 2 with cash in the bank.
It might not be Avacta putting it into clinic licence talks ongoing ……
Hi RMFatGB
Ben111 just posted thought it was his twitter playing up.
I have just checked and everything gone except replies from 2021.
So all launch and Coris takeover stuff deleted or being updated 🤷
@AvactaDx

Likes all gone only Replies there but only from 2021 🤷
They all can’t be wrong and put their reputations on the line….

“And the really cool thing about our technology and there is not many companies on the planet who have this and lots are saying we want it.
Is that we hit the barricade and the actual cancer cells themselves, both at the same time and that’s a very cool thing.”

“While our lead pre|CISIONTM candidate AVA6000, is progressing through clinical development at pace, we continue to develop other potentially high value assets.”

Easy hold…..

I am thrilled to join @avacta full time at such a pivotal time in the Company’s growth. Our #AVCT pipeline is truly game changing for patients with cancer and I am excited to get to work with this amazing team. #BringingHope #LetsDoThis

😜she knows what’s coming…..
My view how this plays out:
Like Point Bio Avacta will be bought out full takeover,but will keep their name and top management and become a full subsidiary of the acquiring company.
This is a trend BP are using buying a company and letting them get on with it without the funding worries and Stock market red tape.
Avacta BOD have done a fantastic job so far so why break it.
No one knows Affimers and Pre/Cision more than Avacta BOD and staff so just let them crack on.

The reason I only comment on Avacta is because they are the only share I own on AIM.
I have held others in the past but AIM is too risky.
The rest of my portfolio a few in FTSE 100
A few in SP500 USA
My Property portfolio and small bit in a company that’s mines crypto on NASDAQ
So yes only Avacta for me on this board…
Just sit tight and wait GLA
"Targeting potent therapies to the tumour, while limiting the systemic toxicity that often characterises these therapies, is one of the holy grails of cancer drug development. The data we released today show that the pre|CISION? modification is cleaved specifically by FAP, and not by other human enzymes, and this mechanism can be used to target the activation of a chemotherapy to the tumour microenvironment, significantly reducing the systemic exposure and improving the safety of the drug.
Astrea Bio starting to see promising results of affimers through licence agreement with Avacta.

Dated 7th November 2023.

Could see some royalties coming through from Astrea.
The agreement includes a £0.5 million upfront payment to Avacta which gives Astrea the rights to generate and develop Affimer reagents in-house for affinity separation. It also provides Astrea with an option to convert the agreement into an exclusive license if certain commercial performance criteria are met over the next three years and subject to the payment of an additional undisclosed option exercise fee.
Avacta will receive royalties on future sales of Astrea's purification products that contain Affimer reagents.
Look at this approval for Brukinsa, 86 patients with mantle cell lymphoma who had received at least one prior treatment. The trial measured how many patients experienced complete or partial shrinkage of their tumors after treatment (overall response rate). In the trial, 84% of patients had tumor shrinkage with a median duration of response (time between the initial response to therapy and subsequent disease progression or relapse) of 19.5 months.
Now look at the side effects deceased but still brutal.
Brukinsa was granted Accelerated Approval, the FDA also granted this application Breakthrough Therapy designation and Brukinsa also received Orphan Drug designation.
With AVA6000 and in AS own words PARADIGM SHIFT in oncology?
I’m convinced AVA6000 will be granted one of the above in 2024.
C7 patients at present having their tumours zapped by 385mg ,fireworks will start going off in the media very soon.

A good explanation of problems treating sarcoma’s and a little mention of AVA6000 in last paragraph.

Agree market has overlooked ODD
First line in link:
Securing an orphan drug designation is no small feat, in part because the number of patients affected cannot exceed 200,000 in the United States.
Hope your predictions come true…
So many things can happen to Avacta in the next 6 months.
FDA Approval looks a cert after P2
Major Partnership
Massive Licence
Full T/O
But could approval come earlier ?
Paragraph below :This support can expedite the development process by providing guidance on how best to design clinical trials that meet regulatory approval requirements
Has FDA requested 2 week dosing ?????
What Is the FDA ODD?
ODD provides incentives such as tax credits, marketing exclusivity, fee waivers, and the opportunity to apply for grants to support clinical trials. It also gives sponsors access to specialized regulatory assistance from the FDA’s Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD). This support can expedite the development process by providing guidance on how best to design clinical trials that meet regulatory approval requirements for drugs and biologics intended to manage a rare disease or condition.

This is an interesting read collaborations with MedImmune, Avacta, and Novartis.

We have also started several collaborations with MedImmune, Avacta, and Novartis to further expand our technology transfer activities. In addition to this, we are in the final stages of drafting a business plan for a UCL-based spin-off company that will commercialise our technology for cell reagents, drug discovery tool, and several applications in clinical science with our initial focus into topical administration of anticancer drugs.
Until a licence deal arrives and the SP re-rates Avacta are vulnerable to an opportunist bid from BP.
It would have to be a large enough bid to entice a lot of PI’s because Avacta board have a plan to stay independent as long as possible.
Everyone expecting a large BP such as Novartis or Takeda but there are three companies who have a lot invested and will also will be watching out for any bid.
Eli Lilly now have a Pre/Cision licence and will be privy to a lot of P1a data.
LG Chem will now proceed with Investigational New Drug (IND) enabling studies for Affimer PD-L1 antagonist programme.They can see exactly what affimers are doing.
Daewoong
Avacta own a third of joint partnership in Affyxell and would not like to see BP come in on that deal.
Could one of these pounce only Eli Lilly have the muscle to take a full T/O
But the Korean’s could take the Affimer platform.
GLA
Actually they didn’t announce the deal by RNS until 3rd Feb a few weeks after the JPM conference.
