BioShockers Alert
Picked up some SNSS @ $1.03
BioShockers Alert
Added more HNAB @ 0.343.
Judging from what it did last year going into ASCO (http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=HNAB.OB&a=04&b=29&c=2009&d=05&e=9&f=2009&g=d), I'd like to see them break the 52wk high of $1 since they are so close to an NDA filing... But the most conservative price would probably be ~.60-.70.
Another 11% for HNAB already! Congrats... Do you have a price target on it? Thinking about jumping in, but might wait and see if it retraces a bit...
HNAB is really moving today... Great volume for only an hour after open!
GLTA.
HNAB (.297) up 9%! .30 last resistance until 0.47, increasing volume.
POZN - Brean Murray ups POZN to $14 from $11.
From Schwab News.
POZN ($10.97)... Analyst thoughts on POZN and its potential for Vimovo approval!
Dr. Jonathan Aschoff, Ph.D., is a Senior Equity Analyst at Brean Murray, Carret & Co., LLC
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Arthritis-Drug-Vimovo-twst-3473823072.html?x=0&.v=1
POZN ($10.97)with FDA decision on Vimovo coming on (or before) april 30:
The decision whether or not to approve Pozen Inc.'s Vimovo, an investigational drug for the treatment of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis , rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis in patients who are at risk of developing *NSAID-associated gastric ulcers, will be issued by April 30. (*Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs)
Vimovo is developed in partnership with AstraZeneca plc (AZN). The New Drug Application for Vimovo was submitted on June 30, 2009, and based on a standard 10-month review, the FDA decision date is April 30, 2010. Pozen's partner AstraZeneca is seeking approval of Vimovo in the European Union too.
Pozen, which has thus far received $80 million in upfront and milestone payments from AstraZeneca, is eligible to earn $20 million in milestone payment if Vimovo wins regulatory approval in the U.S. and another $25 million if the drugs gets approved outside of the U.S. Based on achievement of certain sales thresholds, Pozen is also entitled to receive sales performance milestones of $260 million.
Pozen shares, which have gained over 70% in the past three months, closed Friday's trading at $10.87 on a volume of 1.07 million shares.

Sounds good camaro! Nice board, but way too quiet!!! Would be nice to set up a new solid biotech board here....
DNDN PDUFA date is coming up soon... If Provenge receives FDA Approval, a lot of these biotechs w/ cancer drugs could see a nice boost, IMHO.
GLTA.
Called DCTH back in $5s, now in 12s and they announce positive phase 3 data a few days back... Stay tuned to this board for more awesome picks like DCTH... From now on, whenever I alert a stcok, I'll be posting DD w/ the stock.
As always, do your own DD as well.

BioShockers 2Q 2010 Watch List
RNN – release of Serdaxin and Zoraxel P2a results
GNVC – momentum play, possible bounce coming
QCOR – advisory committee meeting for Acthar on May 6
AVNR – release of full P3 results
ACUR – advisory committee meeting for Acurox on 4/23
POZN – PDUFA date on 4/30
CYTX – APOLLO trial results to be presented at meeting on May 7
BTIM – stem cell momentum play
INHX – release of interim FV100 data
HRBR – release of Triolex P2 results in obese type 2 diabetes patients
HLCS – bounce play
BNVI – possible partner for Menerba
IVD – possible FDA decision on MAGO4S 510K submission
ISCO.OB – stem cell momentum play
THTCF.PK (also on Toronto exchange: TH.TO) – advisory committee meeting on May 27
If any of these need corrections or if you have a stock you think should be added, let me know.
RNN doesn't look so great anymore... IMO, unless a miracle happens, Serdaxin is finished.
GNVC is a great bounce play, IMO. If their atonal therapy (TherATOH) works (and preclinical results look really promising), GNVC will fly...

UPDATE 2-Rexahn antidepressant fails in early mid-stage trial
Tue Apr 13, 2010 3:38pm EDT
Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
* Overall study fails to achieve statistical significance
* Says patients on 5 mg Serdaxin improved in MADRS scores * Shares down 50 pct (Recasts; adds company comments, updates stock movement)
By Krishnakali Sengupta
BANGALORE, April 13 (Reuters) - Rexahn Pharmaceuticals Inc (RNN.A) said its experimental antidepressant drug Serdaxin did not achieve statistical significance in a mid-stage study, sending its shares down 50 percent in afternoon trade.
The study, however, showed the drug to be safe and well tolerated without the appearance of serious side effects that are commonly linked to certain currently marketed drugs for the treatment of major depressive disorder, Rexahn said in a statement.
"This study was a proof-of-concept study from our perspective. We were looking for a strong signal, which we did get in the severe patient population", President Rakesh Soni told Reuters.
Although the overall study -- on 77 patients -- did not achieve statistical significance, results from the subgroup analysis showed the drug to significantly improve Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating (MADRS) scores in patients treated with 5 mg of Serdaxin for 8 weeks, compared to a dummy drug.
The MADRS rating is used to measure the severity of depressive episodes in patients with mood disorders.
The company said it plans to start a second mid-stage clinical trial in the second half this year and is currently in talks with several major pharmaceutical companies to co-develop the drug.
Soni said the second mid-stage study will enroll about 400 patients and will evaluate the drug's efficacy against similar drugs.
"We are in talks with several companies, evaluating partnerships, and we expect much higher milestone payments for the drug than what we had with Teva," Soni added.
In 2009, Rexahn entered into an agreement with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (TEVA.TA) (TEVA.O) for the development of one its preclinical novel anti-cancer compounds, for which it is expected to receive a couple of hundred million dollars in a milestone payments.
Shares of the company fell to $1.82, but recovered some of the losses and were trading down 48 percent at $1.89 in afternoon trade Tuesday on the American Stock Exchange. (Reporting by Krishnakali Sengupta; Editing by Unnikrishnan Nair)
