Henderson Morley is a drug discovery company

The company has been developed specifically to carry out preliminary sourcing and screening of candidates to combat diseases caused by the herpes family of viruses and certain other DNA viruses

Latest GECR update 15th October 2006

Latest GE&CR update - 15th Oct 2006 :


The news investors have all been waiting for - regarding negotiations with a US dermatological pharmaceutical firm has finally been unveiled. The licence has been granted under an agreement to
Cutanea, a U.S. pharmaceutical company, specialising in the development of dermatology products in the US market.

The licence is for new applications of ICVT for the treatment of dermatological conditions in humans. The agreement and takes the form of an exclusive American, Mexican and Canadian wide licence to bring products to market through a programme of pre-clinical and clinical development of treatments either by Cutanea or through a sub-licence. Under the terms of the Agreement, Henderson Morley will receive up to 6.675 million dollars in development and commercialisation milestone payments up to the point at which the application receives regulatory approval, and will receive royalties on net sales thereafter.

Under its business plan, Henderson Morley has stated its belief that, following clinical development and regulatory licence approval, sales of the product in excess of $1.5 billion could be achieved over the subsequent ten year period. This would give a potential royalty to Henderson Morley in excess of $115 million over this term.

As a drug discovery company, it is imperative that Henderson continues to grant licenses to further develop its technology portfolio. This is the group's third ICVT license agreement. Encouragingly, Cutanea has a great management team with a proven track record of commercialising dermatology products.

Meanwhile, the company has announced that it has been working away on a vaccine against Koi Carp Herpes virus. The group believes it is now ready to start field trials of a
candidate vaccine, in a collaboration with the Internationally renowned Hagerman
Aquaculture Research Institute in Idaho USA. The initial immunogenicity studies should produce results within 6 months, enabling Henderson Morley scientists to optimise the vaccine formulation, with a view to securing a product licence from the veterinary authorities as soon as practicable.

Clearly activity at Henderson Morley has been significant in recent weeks. The licensing announcement is very encouraging, but with the news now out of the way, the shares have eased - a classic case of buy on the rumour, sell on the news. That said, the stock has now pulled back below the recent placing price. With so much going on at the company, further newsflow in the shorter term is far from unlikely.

*Henderson Morley is a corporate client of Bishopsgate Communications which is owned by RSH, the ultimate owner of GE&CR.

Forecasts and a formal recommendation are suspended ahead of the publication of a detailed note next month.

This share has been a disaster for years is there any Management intention of making it profitable, or is it a means to keep them emplopyed?
You would think that having patented a scheme they's strive to prove its worth; conduct trials on patients etc. and there has been enough time for this since about 2000, when they first listed (on Ofex, I suspect, but can't be certain).
Since coming to AIM there has been no real progress...as far as I recall....so just what are we waiting for? - and on past performance just how long will it be "in coming?" I suspect this is another never-never investment.....the World will be cured of cancer by the time anyone wakes up to this treatment.....that is if it is a treatment...or is it just a "delivery" like Tetrapac waiting in some parallel World for milk to become popular?
I have held this and you know, I'm getting rather sick of it...

KKeith2000 keeps us (here) up to date...but it's just words on the page....I don't see any commercial result....and Koi Carp are pretty ugly, couldn't they have chosen herring, the little sweeties?

kkeith2000 - 11 Jun 2007 16:04 - 234 of 296

hangon some of the things you say are correct but with the small caps it can sometimes work like this, a little buying lifts the s/p we all hope for news it doesn't come the personal investors get board give them back to the mm/s and the s/p drifts down
I do think we will have some good news sometime but when i don't know, some of the products the company have could be worth millions so in the meantime i will wait till i get board

kkeith2000 - 18 Jun 2007 10:18 - 235 of 296

Looks to be on the move, no news yet but over the past few weeks some large buying, after the risers and falls just wondering if this time we could just rise up to the final results which i think out next month and some good news

SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME UPDATE

Koi Herpes vaccine

The Company is pleased to announce that it is in late stage discussions with a
pharmaceutical partner in respect of a licence for the vaccine.

The initial immunogenicity studies regarding the Company's proprietary vaccine
against Koi Herpes Virus (KHV) demonstrated potent antibody responses. Further
studies using a virus neutralising assay have shown that not only were
antibodies produced by the vaccine, but these demonstrated virus neutralising
effects.

A reliable immunofluorescence assay has now also been developed, as well as
larger scale virus production and a variety of standardisation and quality
control measures.

Further announcements will be made in due course.

PREPS and L-particles

This technology, which uses non replicating virus particles that totally lack
DNA, was presented to an International Congress on Protein Therapeutics in
Boston (PEGS Summit, Boston InterContinental Hotel, 16 May 2007). This
generated considerable interest within the scientific community and therefore a
further presentation will be made in August at the 2007 Cancer Immunotherapies
Conference in Cambridge Mass., USA.

To advise on the development of this technology, the Company has retained
internationally renowned consultant Professor Lemoine. Professor Lemoine holds
his chair at Queen Mary's School of Medicine (at Barts and the London Hospital)
and is Director of both the Institute of Cancer, and the Cancer Research UK
Clinical Centre. He also leads the Centre for Molecular Oncology.

Laboratory based studies are progressing well, using state of the art virus
engineering techniques to produce viruses that express marker proteins for
immunogenicity studies - a precursor to pre-clinical and clinical studies.

Other in-house studies are also making good progress in exploring the use of
these particles as candidates for human herpes virus vaccines.

ICVT formulation

The development of an injectable formulation of ICVT in conjunction with the
University of Aston, Pharmaceutics department, is nearing completion.
Standardised assays have been developed and initial chemistry and release
studies have also been completed. It is envisaged that a final formulation will
be ready for Pre-IND discussions with the FDA by December 2007.

Feline Herpes

Previous in-vitro studies completed in-house have demonstrated that the Feline
Herpes Virus (FHV) is extremely sensitive to the effects of ICVT. Consequently,
Henderson Morley is pleased to announce that a specialist animal health Contract
Research Organisation has now been contracted to undertake field studies to
examine the use of ICVT topical drops in the treatment of FHV conjunctivitis.

The studies are expected to start within 60 days, with results of the study
anticipated within Q1 2008.

The studies will examine animals that are already infected by FHV. The animals
will be given drops to be applied by their owners or by veterinary health care
professionals. No animals will be harmed in these studies, ethics committee
approval will be gained, and the studies will be supervised by independent
veterinary advisers.

The drops to be used in this study have been shown to be safe and well tolerated
in human studies. If the cats were not enrolled into this study it is likely
that they would remain untreated. If the treatment proves successful, it is
likely therefore that the welfare of the cats treated in this study will be
significantly enhanced, with potential future benefit for the wider feline
community.

Feline herpes virus infections are very common, and represent a major cause of
morbidity in animal care institutions, the wild feline population and domestic
cats, especially at times of breeding.

A recent sero-epidemiolgical study demonstrated that in wild cat populations
feline herpes incidence was as high as 75%. Also in approximately one third of
clinically normal cats, it was possible to isolate virus from their respiratory
tract, and that over 97% of the whole study group had antibodies against FHV-1
by ELISA. This indicates that the infection is extremely common and is prone to
recurrence, even in those animals that are clinically normal.

There is currently no anti-viral treatment licensed to treat feline herpes
infection in the UK or any of the major markets, so a significant market
opportunity exists.

Laboratory Expansion

The first phase of the HML laboratory expansion has now been completed. This has
resulted in a newly formed Molecular Virology Laboratory with enhanced virus
growth capabilities. Virus handling and purification, sterilisation,
inactivation and quality control measures have also been enhanced.

Preliminary Results

The Company will be announcing its results for the year to 30 April 2007 before
30 September 2007.

kkeith2000 - 20 Jun 2007 22:00 - 237 of 296

Its now fair to say until we get a licence for one of the products this share will generate little interest and you can understand why from the past

I do believe the RNS today is positive and for the brave in time will come good, but as always do your own research

kkeith2000 - 29 Jun 2007 09:47 - 238 of 296

On the move again could this be the one we have been waiting for?

STRATEGIC REVIEW


The Board of Henderson Morley announces that, further to the announcement made
on 23 January 2007, the Company is continuing to explore strategic options in
order to maximise shareholder value. One of these options is the sale of some
or all of the business, and the Board has engaged advisers to assist with this
process. This process may or may not lead to an offer being made for the
Company. Consequently the Company is considered to be in an 'offer period' as
defined in the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, and the dealing disclosure
requirements listed below will apply.

During this process the scientific development programme and out-licensing
strategy continues unaffected.

The Company will keep shareholders informed of progress in this respect.

kkeith2000 - 03 Jul 2007 07:50 - 240 of 296

This is going to fly now

Waited a long time for this

kkeith2000 - 03 Jul 2007 12:39 - 241 of 296

After a near 40% rise in the blink of an eye dropped back down a bit to 16% now
Reading the RNS it looks like the company is trying to force someones hand who as been stakebuilding

Active - 03 Jul 2007 18:24 - 242 of 296

I've made my maiden purchase today at 2.76 pence. I think just on speculation we are set for the next wave off rises with HML. I would expect the price to get to nearer to 4 pence in the next few days before anyone shows their hand!

kkeith2000 - 03 Jul 2007 19:47 - 243 of 296

I would think so as well. The directors bought a few at 2.5 i think so they would want a fair price

Am hoping tomorrow some press coverage may throw some light on things

kkeith2000 - 11 Jul 2007 10:56 - 244 of 296

A new website but can't find anything on Koi Herpes vaccine

cynic - 11 Jul 2007 11:27 - 245 of 296

didn't know that goldfish went in for oral sex so much that herpes would give them concern ...... do they also get genital warts which are a closely related virus?

Marcel1970 - 09 Aug 2007 16:33 - 246 of 296

HML Anyone know when the next update is due, its now lower than it was before the last RNS. Anyone any thoughts?

banjomick - 05 Nov 2007 22:26 - 247 of 296

Looking like sentiment is changing but a bit early to say if HML can stay above 2p and move forward.AGM 14th November 2007 which may have some bearing on recent volume.Only have a relatively small amount of these from a few months ago so haven't looked in any great detail.Interesting though!

banjomick - 07 Nov 2007 09:02 - 248 of 296

Hmmmm,looking good but will it last?

cynic - 07 Nov 2007 09:05 - 249 of 296

why should it?

banjomick - 07 Nov 2007 10:56 - 250 of 296

exactly but then again why not? :-)

All depends on news as always...............

moneyplus - 07 Nov 2007 11:18 - 251 of 296

Maybe the long rumoured bid is just around the corner--it's certainly perking up!!
