Yes yes yes. Cheer up !

Repeat from yesterday - daresay some don't look back . . .

European and US Patents for Glycans granted and published !

Bermuda (and C7) say good news at last . . . Konar ? Inan ? Crumbs ? WF ? Ray P ? All luminaries !

IF it's good news, looking forward to some comment - Scancell now have 3 Immunology sciences patented !

Bermuda says good news at last . . . Konar ? Inan ? and all ?

Well spotted - this might be fuel for our hopes . . .

Reuters too :-

That's a bit strong M8 - I presume you are talking about the 'Remainers' there . . .

I saw you being 'processed' this weekend but I hope you keep posting here (but not fighting) as we have lost so many good posters one way or another. BFN and ATB

Inan is quite open about the fact that he has places in Thailand and also in England.
As it happens, I live in Thailand 10 months a year myself. It's no secret.
But it's not relevant to Inan's or my own interests here as an LTH in Scancell is it ?

Good to see you posting even though you have cribbed my TF moniker ! ATB

What's that about TF ? I knew you'd ask . . . on another Forum, a friendly Forum, (it is possible), one of our more cerebral Members recently posted about ''The higher, the fewer'' and here it is . . . .

''The answer to a classic riddle: "What is a mouse when it spins?" Answer: "The higher the fewer."

Riverboat steam engines adjusted velocity using an accelerometer called a 'mouse,' which, when adjusted upwards upon its shaft, would lower the revolutions of the engine. The higher the mouse was, the fewer the revolutions. What is a mouse when it spins? The higher the fewer.

A philosopher was concerned about a nearby couple who were arguing and says rather pompously to his friend; "the higher, the fewer". His friend remarks something to the effect that that has to be an all-time conversation stopper. The philosopher then runs over to the bickering couple, repeats the pretentious phrase, and they immediately stop arguing because it is so strange. This, I believe, is the intended effect. There comes a point in most discussions that have lost their way that something like this is called for''.

Thanks to the venerable Hector for that. ATB

Yes we should be fair to Knowlesi and all on the BB. IMHO Knowlesi has been rather tripped up and pushed into a quicksand. IMO too, I'd agree there is a possibility of some fund raising of a dilutive nature - hopefully some funds will appear in a different way, but until then !

I'd also note that when BB begins to 'debate' this, it's not usually without reason and often. the dreaded event comes more quickly than we feared.

As for 'ramping' and 'trolling' - sometimes we see it but IMO not among regular Posters. Again IMO nothing written here is going to affect the SP anyway - so why attribute that motive ? We do have a band of enthusiastic optimists for the most part - and that obviously jars with some, sometimes. Anyway I don't think the term needs to be taken too seriously - it's enthusiasm !

My last words discussing this . . ''The higher, the fewer'' . . . .

. . . that's over now. Let's get back to Brexit and to football - (a winking eye would be nice).

Knowlesi, I saw your first post in the saga and thought it negative but it's OK to see that too ! In your 21.51, you use these words - ''persistant positive spin'' and ''less positive spin''. MHO - I don't see the 'positive' posts as 'ramping' (or the 'negative' as 'trolling'). Many LTH have a lot of genuine enthusiasm for Scancell's science and prospects.

I didn't agree with your Sat 17.43 comment, ''The BoD interests aren't sufficiently aligned with shareholders''. I really don't think that's correct and for example, I'm sure the BoD are striving for and would be highly delighted by some monetization - as would we LTH. Aligned therefore . .

Roll on that news ! BFN and ATB

I'm just off to watch the second half - come on L'pool !

(Did you know, last week, National League South, NONE of the top 11 teams won and none of the bottom 7 lost - how weird is that ? ).

GLA

Yes C7 - a profoundly disappointing day . . .

It's surprising that the SP drops that much on net sells of just 156K, (according to your 16.51).

Mai pen lai - onwards and hopefully upwards. GLA

C7. Re yours . . .

''Well dangerous for US to put about the aim of "curing" cancer. It is our aim and thousands of others to ultimately find the cure.''

WE are not 'putting' the claim about. The paper in WF's link is, ''Cancer vaccine: how far are we from curing cancer?
Ruhul Choudhury and Lindy Durrant (Scancell, UK and the University of Nottingham, UK)

''It was and is always Scancells mission to extend human life beyond current Standards of Care''.

Exactly - it's Scancell's aim and they may be getting there.

I am deeply sorry that your experience is not reflecting that ''The conclusion states ''immunotherapy is slowly becoming a more popular choice''. That's ''slowly''.

Moving on - CFC are gonna wallop my FFC by the look of it, so well done. G'night.

Good Evening C7 . .

The conclusion states ''immunotherapy is slowly becoming a more popular choice''. That's ''slowly''.

I'm afraid I'm not qualified to argue the point further but I note your comments.

The Swatcats (Nakhon Ratchasima FC) are on TV atm and then I'm off for one beer and the early EPL k.o.

So BFN.

Thank you very much - closed that loop then ! Jason Luke it is . . . .

Lots going on . . .

Thanks WF. What a brilliant presentation. Noted this and it's my CAPS :-

''Conclusion - Currently, if cancer is diagnosed early, physicians have several options at their disposal for treating patients and immunotherapy is slowly becoming a more popular choice. New potential ways of harnessing the power of the immune system to defeat cancer are being discovered due to advances in medicine. We are certainly closer to curing cancer than we have ever been before. IT IS NOT A MATTER OF IF, BUT WHEN, we overcome the challenges of cancer and treatment with vaccines may be one way.''

Roll on that day then !

OK Crumbs - but do you remember someone notable, tweeting about 'would like to be involved in' and can you remember WHO it was ? I'm going back to about the time Keith Flaherty had signed up for the SCIB1 Combo trial - some time ago!

Gooosed is back with some tweets . . Jedd Wolchok - a name we've heard before :-

''Jedd Wolchok @wolchokj in Q&A highlights ways to get the cold tumor hot. 1. Cancer Vaccines 2. Intratumoral agents (like TLR agonists)

https://twitter.com/gulleyj1/status/1101619522367352833

James L Gulley MDPhD . . .

"Unlikely to see single agent activity unless another foundational pathway is uncovered." @wolchokj We need to be patient as we learn more about mechanisms and biology for combinations. #ImmunoOnc19''

https://twitter.com/gulleyj1/status/1101613935600562179

Fiddling around I see Paul Rennert of SugarCone Biotech following James Gulley ?

Re. Jedd Wolchok - was he the Guy that tweeted moons ago that 'he wanted to be involved in Scancell' or words to that effect ?

Nice day all.

Not new news but BioNTechs' press release . . .

''BioNTech AG, a rapidly growing biotechnology company developing precise and individualized immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer and the prevention of infectious diseases, congratulates its Co-founder and CEO Prof. Dr. Ugur Sahin on receiving the German Cancer Award 2019, one of the most prestigious distinctions in cancer medicine in Germany. Prof. Sahin was honored in the category Translational Research for his seminal work on individualized cancer immunotherapies and in particular the development and clinical testing of mRNA-based cancer vaccines that are tailored to each patient´s cancer mutation profile.''

Thanks for linking that DA. (C7 posted the script 04.30).
