Yep, looking good ...but expecting profit taking this afternoon.. however, I'm staying in for a long while yet!

Topped up on LBB ... looking interesting ahead of results due soon.

Looks good, although tends to + or - 10%. Good to hold more for the future.

Still looking skywards.

N+1 Singer needs to update this share. They are slow sometimes. :-))

Buying at 12p :-))

A 2 bagger for me and still looking up.

SUMMIT PRESENTS NEW PRECLINICAL AND CLINICAL DATA ON SELECTIVE C. DIFFICILE ANTIBIOTIC SMT19969 AT ICAAC 2013

Summit presentations points to antibiotic's potential

Drug developer Summit (LON:SUMM) is presenting data that points to the huge potential of its antibiotic in tackling the C.difficile superbug.

The results from studies of SMT19969 are being presented at a prestigious industry event in Colorado.

Delegates will be told that the company’s phase-one clinical trial of 56 healthy volunteers revealed the drug to be well tolerated in all doses and sparing on gut flora.

The major bacteria groups were largely unchanged with the exception of total Clostridia, which were reduced during treatment.

Results from preclinical efficacy studies were similarly encouraging.

Evaluating the potency and selectivity of SMT19969, they reveal it is highly targeted, but kills all strains of C.diff tested.

A separate analysis of SMT19969 reveals its use with traditional antibiotics does not diminish its potency.

The data will be revealed in five posters and podium presentation at the 53rd annual Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (IAAC) meeting in Denver.

Summit chief executive Glyn Edwards said: "These new data presented at ICAAC 2013 further validates the promise of SMT19969 as a novel and highly targeted antibiotic for the treatment of this serious infectious disease.

"These results demonstrate that SMT19969 selectively kills all C.difficile strains tested, is highly sparing of healthy gut flora and shows no reduction in activity when used in combination with other antibiotics. This profile is encouraging for treating CDI and significantly reducing rates of recurrent disease and we look forward to advancing SMT19969 into phase-two clinical trials in the second half of 2014."

Come on N+1 Singer upgrades needed fast.

I haven't been this excited by a share since Staneco and edible packaging and PDX and their Pump with no moving parts. Both of these rocketed whilst I was on board and later collasped but I was long gone...Can SUMM make it where these two failed and actually make money for the company and shareholders over the long term?
In at 4p 4.87p and 14p
