Specialist cancer drug discovery company, Sareum, and oncology-focused development and commercialisation company, Cancer Research Technology Limited, last week announced the publication of the latest results from their joint research collaboration with The Institute of Cancer Research. The results were presented at the National Cancer Research Institute Cancer Conference, in Birmingham, UK.

Of particular interest was data showing how the drug candidate Chk1 (Checkpoint Kinase 1) can produce up to twofold increases in the efficacy of marketed cancer chemotherapeutics.

Sareum is developing seven early-stage cancer drug programmes, one of which is ready for licensing and two are close to licensing. Chk1 is the most advanced and we believe that, as with some other Sareum cancer programmes, it is attracting interest from potential licensees.

Major pharmaceuticals groups have a well-known need to build their cancer drug pipelines and to bring drugs to market quickly. We believe Sareum can be expected to react even more positively to any good news, particularly were the company to sign a deal.

cheers markymar - been a real good day - rrl did well too - very good day at the office today

i hope you managed to make some s here too and had a good day also

hello driver - yes good point ref asm - you say much there in few words - their as1413 failed yet still around 2.3 ish - the asm director buys look a bit sick there now - down sizing ahead i believe for them etc

i was also watching pyc today - but didnt move for 2 reasons - 1 l2 was not strong enough for me for pyc - and about a year or so ago i was locked into the dreaded pyc (dreaded then) for months - a rise not unlike today's came along and i made a swift exit just below break even - so to go back to pyc i would be extremely wary - however it may be a bit of a dark horse tomorrow - take a look at pyc rns from last year - i seem to remember thinking not much of it at the time...... but now? gla and have a good evening

remember I stress this is an rns from last year!! but interesting now - but will need a tad more research...
