Eggsackly--a cheap way to make shorts sweat, and others wonder
All SEC suspended stocks can trade on the Grey Sheets after the ten day SEC Suspension expires. Often, though, it is the Brokers who won't let their clients buy previously suspended stocks and that is the main reason why there is so little trading activity on those stocks....plus, no-one wants to buy, knowing that a previously suspended stock will eventually have their ticker either deleted by FINRA (for unregistered stocks) or have their ticker and registration revoked by the SEC (for SEC reporting stocks).

InNexus Announces Discovery of Novel Protein for AMD Eye Disorder
- Will Bypass Needles with Topical Application A9:00 AM ET
6/29/10 | BusinessWire
InNexus Biotechnology Inc. (TSX:IXS.V)(www.ixsbio.com), a drug development company commercializing the next generation of antibodies based on its groundbreaking Dynamic Cross Linking (DXL(TM)) technology, today announced that it has developed IXS312(VEGF), an antibody fragment with activity against the growth factor VEGF for planned use in ocular treatments.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects more than 30 million people worldwide and is the leading cause of blindness in people over 60 years of age in the US. Speaking on the announcement, Jeff Morhet, InNexus CEO said, "This is a rapidly growing market with limited options for patients. Some treatments cost greater than $15,000 annually. Our product has a novel approach, unique drug design and simplified manufacturing (cost competitive) process. We are in active discussions with several potential development partners to commercialize IXS312 and products based on our technologies."
"Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) is a chemical signal produced by cells that stimulate the growth of new blood vessels. Over-expression of VEGF can cause vascular disease in the retina of the eye and other parts of the body. InNexus' protein research team developed IXS312 to treat ocular diseases, without invasive application steps such as direct injection into the eye," said Dr. Thomas Kindt, InNexus CSO. "IXS312 is a small protein fragment intended for use as a topical therapy for AMD and diabetic retinal dysplasia. Our R&D program has made great progress. We originally modified the fragments to give them stability at body temperature, something very important for packaging and administration and then modified the IXS312 sequence to promote the passage of the product across cellular membrane layers. The recombinant IXS312 is expressed in good yield and was shown to be properly folded through its isolation and purification, binding its antigen target with high affinity. Development is ongoing."
Earlier this year InNexus announced it developed a novel antibody fragment product, IXSCD11a, directed at treatment of psoriasis and produced by recombinant technology identical to IXS312(VEGF).
InNexus also announced today that it is currently in discussions with multiple parties to secure financing to continue the development of its lead product, DXL625, to the completion and filing of an Investigational New Drug application (IND) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as communicated during InNexus' successful meeting with the FDA in March 2009. The filing of an IND for DXL625, estimated to take 18 months following funding, triggers a payment from one of InNexus' commercial partners.

InNexus Biotechnology Inc. (TSX:IXS.V) (http://www.ixsbio.com), commercializing the next generation of antibodies based on its groundbreaking Dynamic Cross Linking (DXL(TM)) technology, today announces the Journal of Anti-Cancer Drugs is publishing the manuscript titled, "The autophilic anti-CD20 antibody DXL625 displays enhanced potency due to lipid raft-dependent induction of apoptosis" by Bingaman et al.
The manuscript showcases in detail how InNexus' lead product, DXL625 (anti-CD20) induces apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells, having a mechanism not previously seen with commercially available antibody drugs including Rituxan(R). Comparison experiments were also conducted with Rituxan(R) to confirm this unique cell killing ability.
"DXL625 was found to be superior in (1) inhibiting growth of lymphoma cells and (2) directly inducing lymphoma cell death," said Dr. Thomas Kindt, InNexus' Chief Scientific Officer. "Treatment with DXL625, even in the absence of any secondary immune mechanisms, elicited significant levels of lymphoma cell apoptosis, while equivalent treatment with the commercially available alternative did not."
"Our manuscript provides wonderful insight into our DXL(TM) technology and is indeed a testament to the accomplishments of our scientific team and the value of their work toward the advancement of cancer research," said Jeff Morhet, Chief Executive Officer of InNexus. "We look forward to advancing DXL625 to Phase I clinical trials and look forward to the team's continued success through 2010 and beyond."
The manuscript is available now for download in the Published Ahead of Print section of the Journal's website.

Anti-Cancer Drugs (on the web at http://journals.lww.com/anti-cancerdrugs) reports both clinical and experimental results related to anti-cancer drugs, and welcomes contributions on anti-cancer drug design, drug delivery, pharmacology, hormonal and biological modalities and chemotherapy evaluation. An internationally refereed journal devoted to the fast publication of innovative investigations on therapeutic agents against cancer, Anti-Cancer Drugs aims to stimulate and report research on both toxic and non-toxic anti-cancer agents. Consequently, the scope on the journal will cover both conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy and hormonal or biological response modalities such as interleukins and immunotherapy.
InNexus Biotechnology Inc. (TSX.V: IXS) (www.ixsbio.com), a drug development company commercializing the next generation of antibodies based on its groundbreaking Dynamic Cross Linking (DXL(TM)) technology, today announced the development of a new psoriasis product based on its proprietary dermal permeating Transmab(TM) technology.
Scientists at InNexus have designed and produced by recombinant technology, a novel antibody product directed at treatment of psoriasis, an autoimmune skin disease. The product, designated IXSCD11a, is being formulated for topical use either as a lotion or in patches to be applied to affected areas. IXSCD11a is an antibody fragment based on InNexus' Transmab technology that penetrates cell membranes and dermal barriers. IXSCD11a has shown significant increase in cell penetration compared to other products targeting psoriasis.
Dr. Thomas Kindt, InNexus' CSO, said, "The target bound by the antibody fragment is a cell surface molecule involved in inflammation, which is a factor in the development of psoriasis, as well as a number of other autoimmune conditions. It binds the CD11a receptor that is key to the immune cell-cell interactions that lead to inflammatory processes causative of the painful and disfiguring psoriatic lesions. A full-length antibody product previously marketed by another company with specificity for this receptor was used successfully for treatment of the most serious forms of psoriasis, but was withdrawn due to incidences of fatal brain infection caused by systemic immunosuppression. IXSCD11a was designed to circumvent this side effect because low molecular weight antibody fragments do not persist in circulation long enough to mediate systemic immune suppression. In contrast to full-length antibodies that persist in the bloodstream with half-lives of 18-24 days, antibody fragments like IXSCD11a are eliminated within three hours. Immune-suppressive activity of IXSCD11a is likely to be confined to the region of application and eliminated rapidly."
Jeff Morhet, CEO of InNexus, said, "2009 might have been a year for survival, but 2010 is a year for biotech companies to differentiate and show their value. It is our aim to develop safe and effective treatments for disease conditions that cause physical and mental suffering to millions of people. Our IXSCD11a product combines the proven efficacy of previous products with a desired and reassuring safety profile. This is exciting science."
According to the National Psoriasis Foundation (http://www.psoriasis.org), psoriasis affects 125 million people worldwide (2-3% of total population) and is present in all racial groups in varying rates. Psoriasis is the most prevalent autoimmune disease in the U.S., affecting 7.5 million people.

InNexus Bio Issues a Shareholder Update
AM ET 12/2/09 | BusinessWire
InNexus Biotechnology Inc. (TSX Venture:IXS)(www.ixsbio.com), a drug development company commercializing the next generation of antibodies based on its groundbreaking Dynamic Cross Linking (DXL(TM)) technology, today issued a shareholder update on several key initiatives for the 2009 calendar year.
Dear Shareholders and Friends,
Despite the challenging economy of 2008/2009 and the cautious investment environment particularly affecting small publicly traded biotech companies, InNexus has successfully advanced the development of its lead pre-clinical candidate, DXL625 (CD20) for the prospective treatment of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Review of this product at a Pre-IND meeting with the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) resulted in a highly positive outcome as the FDA, in support of our regulatory and manufacturing plans, provided a rare manufacturing exception that will allow for the onsite manufacture of DXL625 at our facilities on the campus of the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona for use in Phase I human clinical trials. The FDA also provided recommendations for a more cost efficient and expeditious design for final preclinical studies to set the stage for clinical testing within humans in Phase I. We have targeted late 2010 for completion of the preclinical studies and submission of the IND to the FDA. Following the submission and approval of our IND, we will begin our first human trials. This is an exciting milestone for the company and can greatly increase the value of a therapeutic antibody product. Ongoing development of DXL625, however, remains dependent on continued flow of investment funds into the program and InNexus is in active negotiations with potential partners to share costs and accelerate the development of DXL625.
We continue to rely on investments from lead investors, as well as the senior leadership of InNexus, to fund operations and R&D efforts. To maximize productive use of these investments and ensure successful operations into 2010 and beyond, we have taken aggressive steps to streamline our operating costs by reducing staff, implementing across the board salary cuts, subleasing available surplus space in our facilities and deferring senior leadership salaries. We are considering other cost saving measures to further reduce our operating costs and insure the focus of our business and development activities.
To further advance our scientific and financial efforts, we have added two new members to the InNexus team. Earlier this year, we were privileged to add the eminent oncologist Dr. Daniel Von Hoff to our world-class Scientific Advisory Board and he has already made significant contributions to our programs. More recently, we have reinforced our leadership team with the addition of David Petulla as our Chief Financial Officer. InNexus' previous CFO, Wade Brooksby, due to ongoing health concerns, left his demanding role on the leadership team but remains actively involved with our team and Board of Directors.
In addition to internally developing DXL(TM) products for various applications, we are also actively identifying collaborators to co-develop and license our proprietary technologies. Following the successful FDA meeting earlier this year for DXL625, we commenced a focused business development effort. While time consuming and difficult, our effort during 2009 has resulted in the signing of research and development collaborative agreements with multiple large international pharmaceutical companies for the evaluation and development of DXL(TM) based antibodies. With these new partners and ongoing programs, we hope to formally announce and provide greater detail of our collaborative efforts during 2010. We will continue efforts to build industry collaborations by advancing these relationships and actively engaging additional pharmaceutical partners for potential collaborations and licensing agreements.
In the coming year, we also expect to further advance our lead product, DXL625 (CD20) as well as developing additional antibodies for oncology and other disease conditions, showcasing the potential for DXL(TM) based products and our offering to the pharmaceutical industry.
We believe our partnering activities will provide significant value to the company and its shareholders. The InNexus leadership team is confident that the company has intellectual resources and a business strategy to not only survive but also truly thrive in this economically difficult environment.
Thank you for your continued support of our efforts and best wishes, Jeff Morhet InNexus Biotechnology Chairman and CEO
