WTP,
Yes, we can drop the word strategy.
The plan to have a US presence, operation, trials and possible NASDAQ listing do seem to have been put on the back burner.
This is different from and separate from financing from firms who happen to be based in the US.

Moving on, I think the appointment is a clear indication of the direction of travel for Scancell. They will pursue licencing deals for all of their platforms. This has been the suggestion by Trinity Delta for a couple of years in their SP predictions.

AB,
"under John Chiplin there was an identifiable US strategy and that is now long dead and buried."

Agree, it looks like the US involvement will be pursued through licencing now.

Ivy,
I spoke to him at the last AGM in 2019. As you say, he is very chatty and friendly, seemed a really nice guy.

TP,
"The Redmile investment should be seen as a seperate "US strategy" (if that is the right term?) should it not?"

Correct. Operating and pursuing business opportunities in a country is separate from seeking financing there.
It would seem that US progress has halted for the time being.

I had a lengthy chat with professor Lewis at the AGM, I wish him all the best for his health.

Moljen,
No problem. I’ve had a thread with my name in the subject rolling on for days and discussing a completely different topic!

Ray, I’m not sure what benefits treatments would bring if you have already sustained damage, for example to the heart. Hopefully a vaccine will prevent the disease taking hold and being able to cause damage in the first place. Another reason why a long term, effective vaccine is so important. The virus cannot be control by distancing measures however stringent.

Here’s quite a comprehensive article..

Crackin,
Forgot to say, you are right
Boris has lost the plot, I doubt he ever had the plot
ANYTHING positive on Covidity will send this over 20p - those were the days my friend I thought they’d never end.

Crackin,
20p? Now let me think, that IS a distant memory June 6th 2016.
18 months later it was 10p.
A replay of the 20p days is due soon. Let’s just hope they have rewritten the ending.

Ivy,
If they remove all the irrelevant banter there won’t be anything left!

C7,
“ Strong enough guys??”
Possibly, but I’ll just check the bird flight direction and entrails to be certain :)

Moljen,
No apologies necessary. Any inside information welcome although zero chance of Kepa getting n my dream team lol.

Max,
You are correct as CH said:
Great science leads to great products
Great products lead to great data
Great data leads to great deals

We will only get the great data once trials start, so hopefully soon and a news release accordingly.
Until we hear something concrete, I’m afraid the SP will fluctuate according to the whim of buyers and sellers.
Since CH uttered those words we do have another string to the bow in Covidity.

Ivy,
Got you. It is easier to muster support of 3 large holders than 3000 individual ones.

Ivy,
“ Happened to me in RRE earlier in the year”
It has happened to me on more than one occasion!
Can’t work out why owners and II’s have a much lower price expectation than PI’s :)

Crumbs,
“ I'm sure they review all the time and plan with what is happening in their investments and what may happen and their own needs.”

Exactly right, just what all of us do!

Ivy,
If you own 51% of a company when the SP is 12p, you would still have 51% if it rose to 24p.
Am I missing the point?

2CV,
“ Any thoughts from the scientifically minded ?”

This is what Burble our resident expert had to say....

“ Covidity (covid-19 immunobody), will be seen as the end to long-term viral infections (sadly I fear excluding HIV) as we know it.”

Morning Ivy,All,
Ivy, you make some valid points.
The thought of hundreds of millions of pounds pouring in from license fees and royalties and investors being showered with dividends is a nice dream. One of the risks I’ve always highlighted, and you have pointed out, is an outright sale of the company. I would hope this would not be for much less than £1, so perhaps not such a bad risk!

I used to worry about the dependence on one person and still do to an extent but less so these days. LD has worked in this field a long time and there are a number of people who have worked with her for a large portion of that time. I can’t imagine LD surrounding herself with anyone not on her intellectual level or who doesn’t have the same passion. I think she will have passed on her approach, methods, processes (physical and thought) and work ethic. Don’t forget , as Edison said “genius is one percent inspiration and ninety nine percent perspiration”. The IP LD has already produced will account for a lot of the value of Scancell. So I believe the company would still achieve success even if it had to be without LD.
AIMO.

Evening Bunsie,
I have the same question as Bermuda, what would you class as day trading garbage. I totally agree that it is fantastic we have such knowledgeable people as far as the underlying science is concerned. It would be wrong, in my opinion, to think that this is all that matters as far as Scancell, its investors and prospects are concerned.
We may have the “best” science in the world, but this in itself is no guarantee that it will translate to approved products or that even if approved they will be the commercial success that we hope.
This is a risky investment and many things can go wrong, not just the science. This is a long journey and there will be many obstacles along the way, some we will not have envisaged.
There may be some here that are day traders. I don’t even know what that means. I have had a large sum invested here for eight years and I only want success for Scancell, not just for financial gain but for the benefit of those suffering from melanoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer and others. As C7 said yesterday, we need to put things in perspective.
I, along with a growing number, aren’t afraid to discuss any aspect of Scancell, good bad or indifferent. I would class Bermuda and Burble amongst that number although it may be inappropriate for me to speak for them (or they may want to distance themselves from me!)
So genuinely, if you think there are topics that legitimately come under the heading “day traders garbage” I would be glad to hear them. I can guarantee you an impartial consideration and honest feedback.
