This ones a heck of a specualive investment but it seems that the institutions are willing to stomp up the cash to back it in the long term.
Heres the latest news from Killik stocbrokers on the company..........
MEDICAL MARKETING Joint Venture
We recently highlighted Medical Marketing (MMG) as worthy of attention. The company, in which I have a personal share holding, has this morning announced the formation of a joint venture, Genvax, to develop a novel DNA vaccine platform technology.
Human trials have been underway since 2001 in areas such as Lymphoma and Myeloma but the technology has broad applications in cancer, viral and bacterial infections (hence the term platform). The technology works on boosting the immune system by teaching it to identify hard to recognise cancer proteins as foreign and destroy them. Early results from the 25 patient trial in lymphoma are encouraging and evaluation of the result is expected by March 2005. Successful results should mean big pharmaceutical groups will start to take financial and commercial interests around that time.
This looks to be the first of a series of announcements due from Medical Marketing as it has a range of predominantly cancer trials moving into the clinical stage. (news flow could push the price higher)
The stock has made good progress in recent sessions up to the mid-80p level where the company is valued at just under 40 million. ENDS.
Please DYOR
cheers GF.

It was announced yesterday 10th Otober that the Prudential have acquired a further 2,407,407 ordinary shares,taking their holding to 10,026,407 ordinary shares representing 17.21% of the companys issued share capital.
They must be quietly confident.

Back in this afternoon, 122p too good to resist, almost 10% below institutions stumping up 10million quid. 2006 should be a rewarding year for MMG holders.
Again I have a personal target and won't be afraid to sell if it goes way beyond that.

Still in and have no problems with the long term. Just holding and awaiting the Golden return.
Remember patience in most circunstances = big returns. Have you seen how many times Ive done it before.
cheers GF.

nice to know you're still around GF, I've been fairly impressed over the last year with your picks, maybe you should start your own thread on your weekly or monthly suggestions / ideas on the stocks you like, just a thought (that would certainly help us amateurs)

Any opinions out there? MMG has been dropped from 175p since early September, but I am still holding.
cheers

Just dig in there freind. Evils still pushing his short and I suspect is responsible for a lot of the downside.
Best thing is to not give him any air time etc, etc.
Im just holding and awaiting in difficult times like this.
cheers GF.

If it falls sub 100p Im in with a shed full..not that it will fall that low but you never know with this market.
Finns note suggests we wont have long to wait for the Genvax efficacy results out several months ahead of schedule.. great news.

Good to see you back mitzy,i wondered where you had got to.Early on in the year you were a frequent poster on this board and really seemed to have your finger on the pulse of this company,don`t leave it so long to post again.
swseun i`m holding at a loss after adding to my holding a couple of times during the big rise in sp earlier in the year.
I`m still very confident about MMG ,given that the Prudential have just added to their holding and the appointment of SAFC to manufacture batches of ruthenium cancer therapies.Given the recent turmoil in the markets and the recent placing of shares MMG`s share price is about where it was when i first bought in back in Febuary,not so bad really is it?
Roll on 2006

Stock prime for a bounce/rise.....Market flat to short, AGM next Wed, intensive note from Insinger due after AGM, Genvax data late Nov/early Dec and hopefully tie up before year end with big pharma.....big 6 to 8 weeks ahead for MMI. Theres more stuff due now than there was back in March and we saw how the price reacted then......

Medical Marketing Int'l Group PLC
27 October 2005
For Immediate Release 27 October 2005
MMI GRANTED FOURTH DNA VACCINE PATENT FOR GENVAX CANCER THERAPY
Medical Marketing International Group plc (MMI), the Cambridge, UK-based
pharmaceutical development company listed on the London Stock Exchange (AIM:MMG)
announces that it has received notification of allowance in Europe for a fourth
patent for its Genvax subsidiary developing DNA vaccines for cancer and
infection.
Mark Burton, Technical Manager at MMI explained 'We already have patents granted
in Europe, the USA and Australia for the 'Stevenson 1' family of patents.
Today's news is important as it is the first notification of allowance for the
'Stevenson 2' family of patents which protects our DNA vaccine technology from a
different angle.'
David Best, Chairman of MMI Group added 'This additional patent protection has
come at an opportune time. The potential for DNA vaccines in cancer has already
been shown by our previous clinical results. However, there is now recognition
that DNA vaccines also have great potential in infectious diseases such as
pandemic influenza as they can be rapidly developed and manufactured in response
to such threats. This ever strengthening patent portfolio enhances our vaccine
pipeline and similarly provides greater leverage to the current negotiations we
are having with major pharmaceutical companies.'
