For those of us that have17 May 2018 10:28
been around many years and watched the market ...
Lemoore and the Immtacs wars .... via immunocore
ONW is really chuffed with himself that he creates Fake news and conspiracy ....... hence the name Jelly Spanner
Back Then we all thought Immtacs had the legs to give SCIB1 a run for its money ... yet it failed to convince in the adjuvant trials, however it still found its niche in Ocular melanoma
11 December 2017
(Oxford, UK and Conshohocken, US, 11 December 2017) Immunocore Limited, the world�s leading TCR company focused on delivering first-in-class biological therapies that transform lives, today announces that it has been informed by the UK�s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) that IMCgp100 has been granted Promising Innovative Medicines (PIM) designation for the treatment of patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.
PIM designation is an early indication that IMCgp100 is a promising candidate for the UK�s Early Access to Medicines Scheme (EAMS), intended for the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of metastatic uveal melanoma. This is based on early Phase I clinical trial data published at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) annual meeting in November. IMCgp100 will be a suitable candidate for entry into Step II of the EAMS process, for which Immunocore is in a pivotal registrational clinical trial in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma. Following this, IMCgp100 will enter the EAMS scientific opinion assessment step.
The point is Trials are public record ... so the competition is transparent, so just because somebody has a wizz bang idea on immunotherapy the will clear cancer in 60 secs, does not mean that it will get to the clinic, most preclinical data takes years to build, let alone run a trial
Scancell is now at that trial stage . with a land grab patent to back it .......
the PTM sector is scancells ...
and SCIB1 delivered the results in the adjuvant market
so if your going after Scancell on the science you really need to know your stuff ... even Fake news can be spotted a mile off ...
