MEDICAL MARKETING, A Speculative Punt That Might Reap Rich Rewards (MMG)     

goldfinger - 01 Sep 2004 15:33

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.

mitzy - yea I agree, it must like watching their house burn down.
Can't they understand they have lost it and try to salvage some dignity and maybe . . . .
It is crazy that the Law allows this distruction of Value by disgraced Directors.
(Not that I ever believed their story, from day one; it was too good to be true.)


HiThere - I'm not sure I follow your suggestion...at 1 per point, if the FTSE rises to 6000, you make a little under 3k - which is hardly a fortune ( although welcome, ), however, the chances of FTSE hittinig 6000 is almost zero in the next two years - and the risk of reaching 0 is EVEN less likely, IMHO. Furthermore if the FTSE fell below 1000, I suspect you'd find it difficult to contact your broker, so I guess your Bet is over and out even if it then rose to 6000.
Don't these "bets" have a Time-element also, so they last maybe 3-months and then you have to re-negotiate, etc.?

MMI advances prostrate cancer clinical trials

Written by Lautaro Vargas
Friday, 13 March 2009

Cancer drug developer, Medical Marketing International (MMI), is pushing forwards with plans to take its commercial prostate cancer vaccine (GVX 3322) into Phase II clinical trials following the successful completion of preclinical equivalence studies.

The Cambridge companys share price rose 6.1 per cent to 6.5p a share following the announcement that it is now in discussions with leading clinical oncologists to define the key parameters for a prostate cancer trial.

MMIs chemotherapy work has also advanced significantly, with pre-clinical studies on how its ruthenium compound ONCO 4417 kills cancer cells hinting that a number of novel cancer targets may be possible.

I read that this swine flu could effect 10 million people in the UK and hundreds could die if not treated.
