STICKY ALERT:

This is patently false information. You have posted this (and stickied it before). It has been corrected before. You need to read the F-R rule and understand it. It does not determine the pps of a stock. Rather it sets the market cap level which a drug coompany should have in order to have a positive Phase III outcome, ie $300M. AEZS current market cap is ( Market Cap 33.10M). Hence according to the F-R rule the 2 Phase III's have tremendous odds of failure.

F-R rule shows a company with less than $300M market cap has never had a successful cancer Phase III. AEZS market cap is ~$10M.

Quoting from an article:

The Feuerstein-Ratain Rule Update: Still Perfect Predicting Small-Cap Cancer Drug Failure

A market cap under $300 million forecasts phase III study failure.

"Sure. When Dr. Mark Ratain and I came up with the concept for the F-R Rule in 2011, we were limited to analyzing a data set of 59 phase III oncology clinical trials conducted between 2000 and 2009.
For the update, I asked the research staff at BioMedTracker to help me bridge the gap between the initial analysis and the present by compiling a new list of phase III oncology phase III studies conducted from 2009 through February 2014. BioMedTracker delivered to me a list of 72 oncology phase III trials.

-- Twenty-eight of the 72 studies were positive -- a success rate of 39%.

-- Forty-two studies were negative -- a failure rate of 58%. Results for two of the studies could not be determined.



Since that article there has been an exception. Feuerstein tweets:

Can't believe anyone would use Feuerstein to support AEZS. If you follow his tweets you will note that for approximately 4 years he has referred to AEZS as sxxx.
