That's handy then - thanks.

These were better efforts from ProActive though ?

Thanks for that 'ProActive' link Ivy. Considering they're on our 'payroll' so to speak, why just a passing mention ? Like an afterthought - and they got that wrong ! Never mind. A good day yesterday as you said and more blue today hopefully - the AvidiMab front is looking interesting. GLA

Hi. No need to be sorry. I was just highlighting the DT piece. Thanks for clarity. ATB

Bermuda thanks for the link to Trinity Delta - I enjoyed these words, "we see AvidiMab bringing additional near-term value". Roll on that day ! And WTP for the highlighting. Collabs now in USA, China and Europe (?) . . . .

Thanks too for the media list . .

The DT on the same news release as the BBC earlier.

"A new type of immune cell which kills most cancers has been discovered by accident by British scientists, in a finding which could herald a major breakthrough in treatment. Researchers at Cardiff University were analysing blood from a bank in Wales, looking for immune cells that could fight bacteria, when they found an entirely new type of T-cell".

That's great news - 3 Pharma working with AvidiMab now, one being in the USA!
Nice little rise atm. GLA

I lodged some comments with the DM, about CAR-T being just one branch of Immunotherapy - there are others I'm told. That said, the article was about one Patient and I wish him luck. GLA

That's the Mail's headline . . . CAR-T therapy under the cosh in the Daily Mail

"Last summer, Joseph McMullan learned that he would become one of the first British patients to receive CAR-T therapy – a breakthrough cancer treatment designed to turbo-charge the immune system to seek out and destroy tumour cells. He believed he’d been thrown a lifeline after chemotherapy failed. The treatment has, with some justification, been dubbed a game-changer, a miracle cure, and even ‘magic’: in trials, some patients with seemingly untreatable and aggressive illness had been brought back from the brink."

Good link thanks. A merest whisker of blue today but more to come hopefully.
Isn't it Tesco's 100th birthday year - "every little helps" comes to mind.
(As a student I met Sir Jack - perhaps I should have listened more !) BFN

C7 - your faith that 'something is happening' is touching of course.

RW that's interesting - I guess you refer to ONW ? Why ?
Any comment on C7's 'points' ?
You've not replied to this - 7th Jan - "So after many months, the DE penny has dropped at last - perhaps you and RW would now have the honesty to apologise to Posters here for your abusive posting on this topic Sunday evening . . . . Then take responsibility yourselves for the gross misjudgement of the situation, rather than attempting to wheedle around and blame others."

You really don't help RW. What do you think about C7's points just now? Waiting . . .

C7 thanks for the market updates . . .

Capitals ? Some emphasis was needed maybe.

As for reasons - was that "Something must be happening ". MMmmm.

Let's wait until we know. ATB

Yes but we don't know IF we intend to apply OR, IF we are far away or close to, do we?

You have "mentioned it a few times now". So you have - on what grounds may I ask?

And "I don"t think we are pursuing other trial sites with all that is involved in the cost of Keytruda being met." But in H2Jan we ain't got another site yet have we? Sorry I'm not being stroppy (although jetlag rules), but I don't follow your assertions. ATB

A Pope indeed. Have you watched 'Spotlight' ?

Come on England and oh, Scancell. BFN

" I do think we are close to being able to reapply for the IND to the FDA"

C7 may I ask why ?

Anyway, Mark Wood atm is scoring 120 per 100 balls - hope he lasts 100 balls . . . . .

430 - 8 - strong buy !

Opium or opinion ? Just joking but, are we not - all - waiting for a bounce ? ATB

Ray. As for shelving SCIB1. . . why not ? That doesn't mean the branch of science goes away. But Scancell should and Pharma would, go for the best and quickest path to progress. Immunobody might be taken up later maybe. But it's gotta be what helps cancer Patients first and also . . . the miserable matter of making some money too. IMHO

Oh for an IND approval or some CRUK news to lift hopes, on Immunobody !!!!

Thanks for that Bermuda. I remember you posting elsewhere that you had 'mentally parked' your expectations for the SCIB1 Combo. We are now in the second half of January and not ONE patient has been dosed yet . . . that connects with DE's musing that projects at the fringe would be sidelined IF a Deal/CVR should arise.

Barring some good luck or an IND, I hope Scancell are NOW throwing 99% of resource at other projects. Hopefully CRUK might have made some progress with the SCIB2 project for NSCLC ?

Never mind - good news coming from somewhere, surely !
