Correction, not a job, it's my source of income , that I so happen to "LOVE" . You see, I have a passion for this. I can study for 18 hours . I get up 3am . I can spend hours on hours back testing my scanners ( that I build and create) and none of it gets me down. It's not so much about the money not ( yes I love the gains) However I enjoy the feeling of getting it right on my 100% plus profits trades. SO DO YOU FEEL THE SAME ABOUT YOUR HOBBY??
The difference between you and I when it comes to this is, "I LOVE THIS"
LOL, WOW. Not a hobby , it's my job I can't get all of them right 100% on GMBL, BIAF yesterday
I read that also, has not been confirmed
You have no clue, RS coming
Good move. I just read up on the DISRUPT Study, there may be a chance with CF-370?

I would have thought that there would have been more positive sentiment at this announcement.

YONKERS, N.Y., Nov. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ContraFect Corporation - CFRX
CFRX, a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of direct lytic agents (DLAs), including lysins and amurin peptides, as new medical modalities for the treatment of life-threatening, antibiotic-resistant infections, announces today that ANSM, the French National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products, has authorized its Clinical Trial Application (CTA) for the study of intra-articularly administered exebacase, in the setting of a minimally-invasive arthroscopic debridement, antibiotics, irrigation, and retention (DAIR) procedure in patients with chronic prosthetic joint infection (PJI) of the knee due to Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) or Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci (CoNS).
"This is a significant milestone for our company as it represents the next opportunity for exebacase to recapitulate the positive and durable results we have observed clinically in the compassionate use setting, after dosing 16 patients. Exebacase presents the potential for a truly revolutionary change to the current treatment paradigm for patients with prosthetic joint infections, which consists of the chronic use of ineffective antibiotic agents leading to expensive and debilitating surgery, whereby the joint is removed and reimplanted 6 to 8 weeks after the patient's confinement to a hospital bed," said Roger J. Pomerantz, MD, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of ContraFect. "PJIs are a completely underserved area of medicine, where no randomized clinical trials have been completed. As the population of the developed world ages, we must find a safe, effective and minimally-invasive way to treat these infections or millions of patients will continue to suffer. Based on promising activity we have seen with exebacase in vitro, in vivo, and in compassionate uses to date, we look forward to completing what could be the first successful blinded and randomized trial in the field of PJIs."
The Phase 1b/2 study of exebacase is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled two-part clinical study to be conducted in France to assess the efficacy and safety of exebacase in the setting of an arthroscopic DAIR procedure in patients with chronic PJI of the knee due to S. aureus and/or CoNS. Part 1 will evaluate the safety, PK, clinical outcomes, and microbiologic response in patients through Day 42. Up to 2 dose levels of intra-articularly administered exebacase in addition to systemic antibiotics will be studied in up to 2 patient cohorts. Part 2 will consist of a long-term follow-up study of safety and efficacy parameters in patients who complete Part 1 of the study. Follow-up assessments will be performed on Days 90, 180, 360 and 720.
About ContraFect
ContraFect is a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of DLAs, including lysins and amurin peptides, as new medical modalities for the treatment of life-threatening, antibiotic-resistant infections. An estimated 700,000 deaths worldwide each year are attributed to antimicrobial-resistant infections. We intend to address life threatening infections using our therapeutic product candidates from our platform of DLAs, which include lysins and amurin peptides. Lysins are a new class of DLAs which are recombinantly produced antimicrobial proteins with a novel mechanism of action associated with the rapid killing of target bacteria, eradication of biofilms and synergy with conventional antibiotics. Amurin peptides are a novel class of DLAs which exhibit broad-spectrum activity against a wide range of antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative pathogens, including P. aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Enterobacter species. We believe that the properties of our lysins and amurin peptides will make them suitable for targeting antibiotic-resistant organisms, such as MRSA and P. aeruginosa, which can cause serious infections such as bacteremia, pneumonia and osteomyelitis. We have completed a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of Staph aureus bacteremia, including endocarditis, with our lead lysin candidate, exebacase, which is the first lysin to enter clinical studies in the U.S. Exebacase was granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA for the treatment of MRSA bloodstream infections, including right-sided endocarditis, when used in addition to SOC anti-staphylococcal antibiotics.

This has plenty of running room if it could just find the momentum.
I'm in @.1885 think she's finally gonna bounce.
Looks pretty ripe to me!!!
I'm ready. .25's and .24's. Looks like shorty is calling BS on the fundamentals. I was thinking the exact opposite.

This is now officially on my pincher list.
CFRX
Major up gap to fill. Delisting awarded time to comply to February and even the potential to be extended again.
Now CFRX just needs something to go their way.

dead cat bounce coming
Wow isnt that low ? or .35 pps ? im confused ...
yes i agree.... can happen any moment
ADX & PPO coming together slowly.
It'll get there!
got in at 0.0358, 4k shares for dead cat bounce...
Interesting. Reduced to a 2.4% stake. Guess that'll be the last we see of them unless CFRX science can turn things around. It can happen.

They have a few other potential anti-bacterial products in their pipelines, but none were beyond preclinical testing other than Exebacase. And Exebacase just got stopped in Phase III testing - which is why stock prices just dropped like a stone.
Here's their described pipeline page
https://www.contrafect.com/pipeline/overview
Realistically - each of those other potential anti-bacterial products are years from being revenue generators.
If there is not some underlying positive angle that the company can redirect Exebacase toward, it's going to be a while before this company takes off and generates any revenue stream.
Is there anything positive about this company that may make me want to buy a bit?
Yeah - I am not necessarily giving up completely on this company, but I will probably see how things stabilize, and don't really have to get rid of the stock for tax purposes until December.
I might buy in again depending on how things look in 2023.
Not a total loss yet. The company still has another product under development.
CFRX: Results from Interim Futility Analysis in July 2022… - May 26, 2022
Mine was in my IRA. Watching LII's and the chart for the dead cat bounce. Figure if the rest of their pipeline even has a chance it'll stll be a long time before this sees over the $ again. The data suggests that they still may be able to tweak a bit here and there and make another go of it. We'll see that possibility in a month or so.
The company plans to provide further details regarding the development of exebacase following completion of its own analysis of the accrued study data.
While I may not stick around to find out I may keep an eye on it for the future. IMO, they have a good team put together that has pretty good potential for the future.
Edit: This also on a day that the market gets the crap kicked out of it. The bounce may not be till tomorrow. Took some .54's.
So it goes with clinical-stage biotechs,... I guess I will be using the tax write off this year on this one.
Yes it was. Very disappointing.
Right at close. Of course.

Yeap ...
Best,

HDG,
Bummer on futility. It is a NO-GO.
Regards,
Spiky
s-
I expect - as best case - a back to +/- 0 for close, every day till announcement due to AH news fears.
Best,
G
Well - share prices to seem to have gone somewhat green for the day.
HDG,
Volume is starting to pick up. Let’s see where this heads into the afternoon.
At least so far there is support for the stock price.
Regards,
Spiky
s-
HDG,
DSMB seems late based on the original estimate of 1st week of July.
It seems like CFRX is still expecting results anytime soon. If not soon they had a chance to release an updated guidance.
Regards,
Spiky
s-
No idea what is going on ...
- app. 80k (20% of regular) in AH on Friday with additional - $0.45
- down - $0.46 in PM (9k volume)
Meanwhile no Friday AH news ... no news yet. (usual PM release time: 07:30 ET)
Best,
G
s-
HDG,
I was watching the volume Friday afternoon to see if news was somehow leaked and that CFRX was going to give bad news after market close. I felt that volume was not that high to suggest a leak, so I held onto my position.
I agree with you, of expecting a GO for futility and a dilution afterwards. Back in March 2021, CFRX diluted a day after announcing the BARDA grant. I plan to sell all of my position when market opens, assuming CFRX release info pre market.
Regards,
Spiky
s-
I know Instead of Super Tuesday it was a Black Friday ("SALE" on Friday only back to "standard" price next week?).
Meanwhile the movement during the day - especially until app 3 PM ... maybe till close - was "understandable: potential AH news on Friday (usually a bad news) I have no idea why the AH looks like as it is additional -15% with the volume (20% of the regular volume, 50+% of average volume.
I could think only one thing: I still assume "Go" a good news but dilution is coming also.
Best,
G
