Cogane had demonstrated encouraging data across four preclinical models of ALS, including SOD1 mice, and ALS was regarded as a potential fast-track, orphan drug, indication for additional development. However, the failure of Cogane to demonstrate a neuro-protective/regenerative effect in its most comprehensive clinical study, does not bode well for attracting further investment in ALS – some grant money had been secured but significant additional funds would be required to conduct the Phase II part of a potential Phase II/III pivotal study, the Edison report noted.

In the summer, Playtech announced a licensing agreement with the California Online Poker Association, a coalition of Indian tribal governments and card rooms. Mr Bartlett estimated the existing US lottery market to be worth $55bn in sales, with a potential $10bn to be generated online. “This is an important game changer,” said Mr Bartlett. “Internet companies have had a tough 2011 and with the prospect of a relaxation to current law in the US 2012 looks like being a better year.”

When q4 results are posted Thurs the 30% rise may come sooner than later.
