OK so you thought the title of the other thread was out of date BUT unfortunately there is no way to edit thread titles.

So here is a new title

This one has got the charts at the top again & has a link to the old one.

Looks as those all that activity has come to a grinding halt!!
So should sp retreat be a further buying opportunity or was this merely a false dawn?

It's Bid Speculation and why not at this price, someones bought a stake and we'll find out over next few days who, and then we should see some price improvement, and maybe a bid? Do the Majority s'holders - kingsman and family still have overall majority control? It would have to be an agreed bid I think.

robstuff, what bid speculation?

It seems to be up because of a licence aggreement.

It looks like the big buyer knew about it 2 days ago, giving them an unfair advantage.

OXFORD BIOMEDICA SIGNS LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL, BOSTON UNIVERSITY AND DANA-FARBER CANCER INSTITUTE

Oxford BioMedica (LSE: OXB), the cancer and neurobiological gene therapy company, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston University and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute extending the field of Oxford BioMedicas exclusive access to the family of cytochrome P450 enzymes in cancer gene therapy. The P450 enzyme is used in Oxford BioMedicas novel cancer gene therapy product, MetXia. The extension of the license covers the development of MetXia as a treatment for pancreatic cancer.

Under a separate agreement, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston University and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have subscribed for a total of 352,887 ordinary shares of 1p each at 15.78 pence per share.

The P450 enzyme is naturally expressed in the liver and activates the chemotherapeutic drug cyclophosphamide. By delivering a specific P450 gene, MetXia promotes activation of cyclophosphamide directly in the tumour and thereby enhances its potency as an anti-tumour treatment. Oxford BioMedica licensed the rights to the P450 enzyme for cancer gene therapy from Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston University and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in 1997 and extended the agreement previously in 2000.

Oxford BioMedica has demonstrated proof of concept with MetXia in two Phase I/II trials in patients with accessible tumours, primarily in breast cancer. In April 2004, the Company reported that recruitment had started in a Phase I trial, rolling into a Phase II trial in patients with pancreatic cancer. The safety stage of this trial is on-track to complete by the end of the year.

Very interesting stuff! Looks as though big boys are positioning themselves for future announcements/sp re-valuation.

Makes me glad that I left my profit in after the previous rise, pity that I didn't leave it all in.

:-)

So the big buyer I saw on Wednesday was Credit Agricole Cheuvreux International Ltd.

Apple, you want too hazard a guess as too what price OXB will reach year end if newsflow is as predicted?

can u guess?

I wouldn't dare!

Well here goes for me;
1. No RNS 20p by month end.
2. RNS too reach yr high of 39p min.
3. Multiple RNS it will rocket!
4. Hostile bid upwards of 50p, which would be a steal.
IMHO

Interesting

Like I said there must be some news coming, I suppose that other people know before we do.

This company has so many drugs that there will be lots of news & any 1 of them could transform the company.

i suspect it is Trovax or Metxia
