This brings to mind a widely reproduced editorial cartoon depicting the Standard Oil monopoly as an octopus:

Birmingham to lead ground-breaking research into patient experience of cell therapies
“Cell and gene therapies offer ground-breaking opportunities for the treatment of disease and injury. As therapies of this kind are so new, the impact upon patients receiving them has not yet been studied – until now.”

“I agree that the idea that BP is some kind of boogie man that actively destroys future competition through Wallstreet is a little far fetched, but I don’t totally discount the possibility.”
This excerpt from Ike's posting capturing verbatim comments at the ASM says it all IMHO:
Quote:
(LG): "I only have one other thought, which I give a lot of thought to actually. In the context of your point about 'with the better our stuff gets the tougher and meaner the other guys get,' there's another word that goes with tougher and meaner and it's more brazen. And the more brazen they get, maybe they're walking into a trap. That's as far as I'm going to go, because they have been . . . we have to be conservative in what we say . . . we'll use the word 'outlandish' in how brazen they've been and the better our stuff gets, the more obvious they're going to have to get and at some point, if you have built the right things that I was talking about before, with investor relations and media and you're getting the story out there about the little engine who could, there will become a tipping point, I sincerely believe, that they'll do themselves in. And we want to be there to catch it, and that's all I'll say about it but it isn't just a one-way street where they rule the world, it gets tougher and tougher the better we get and that provides angles we can work with.”
Add my appreciation to IkeEsq and attendees to the ASM on Saturday and their follow-up reports.
Beartrap, you may have read the article (link below) by Mark Lowdell of INmune: January 24, 2019
“Prof. Lowdell has been a Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Manufacturing Officer since the formation of the Company in September 2015.”…….hmmm - 2015 ?

Sincere best wishes for your healing.
Cancer immunologist (Robert Prins) receives grant to research brain tumor treatments……Jan 29, 2019
“Researchers are studying a new combination therapy using checkpoint blockade in conjunction with a personalized dendritic cell vaccine, which was developed at UCLA, for people diagnosed with glioblastoma, a type of tumor that had previously been thought to be shielded from the immune system. Prins and his team hope by combining the two treatments they will be able to create a new way to treat people with brain cancer, as well as develop new ways to track the immune response.”
“…….. I still cannot fathom why NWBO management did not go out on investment bank "road shows" presenting the DCVax platform and need for investment in their company. I know I would have done this a long time ago after Woodford and they present at investment bank health care conferences. JMHO “

“Question- "Are you under a moratorium that prevents you from answering any questions at all, including this one?"
Response- "Sorry, I couldn't possibly say."
Just playin'... “
IkeEsq….
Thank you for taking this on, it is very much appreciated.
“Imagine what this additional improvement might look like for cancer patients. Is this Kat's Cure+ ?”
“Truthfan, any idea if this is the same offering they put out a while back, or just a repeat offer of the same thing, or something new?
Some interesting bits tucked away like the technology share between InMune and Novacure, with Inmune focussing on in vivo priming and Novacure on ex-vivo
And the amount of time that Mark Lowdell is contracted to devote to InMune.
And I'm sure lots more for someone with more thorough DD than me to turn up.”
Clues are there if one looks. A+
“I wonder what nwbo thinks of this statement from inmune because their most recent paper on Direct alluded to how tnf was integral.
https://www.inmunebio.com/index.php/en/technology/inb03
High levels of soluble TNF promote conditions that prevents efficient immunologic crosstalk. When the system is working properly, NK/DC crosstalk allows for a more robust immune response.”
“I don't see LP's name nowhere in this new Company neither in the Management nor in the Directors. Did I miss it? If true then it is clear that LP is focusing only in NWBO and DcVax. For me with my present knowledge in this area, it is a very good sign.”
INmune Bio, Inc. Announces Pricing of Initial Public Offering

“Well this pushes the Chinese possibility... “
Thanks Dan....
I appreciate the info you offered
“I am familiar with the big 3 USA distributors of pharmaceuticals. I am not sure I see the angle of why they would like to locate with NWBO though all 3 of them are constantly combing for new middle space service offerings to add value for customers like re-packaging for 1 example. It could be Amerisource is looking into logistics as an add on service but they have not gone there in the past. They could buy a logistics provider and move into that space in addition to adding frozen storage and packaging for shipment? Did you have any specific thoughts on why Amerisource could be a candidate? “
“It may not be a Pharma, but if not it's something/someone who's got something going with NWBO.”
They fear treatments like DCVax, both its potential existence and it’s possible success cannibalizing their existing businesses.
Thanks for your response Jon
Doc Logic, Evaluate, Flipper……
In reference to your manufacturing discussion, this is a naive question, I know (that’s because I am naive.) Although Cognate serves a number of customers, I wonder if recent job postings on their site may refer to DCVax’s manufacturing process. These new job listings may just be routine HR business.
I seek enlightenment
Quality Assurance - Change Controls jobs listed recently by Cognate. I haven’t noticed these job titles previously.

Thank you….. you read the tea leaves quite accurately.

Very much appreciated - thank you TC
“I think that would be a positive action, presumably as a pre-launch activity. But, what makes you think they are associated?”
“And I believe some have suggested that LG was in the UK for some time a few weeks back. Perhaps whatever those business activities LP was alluding to, they may involve the UK?”
“....if all those things do not warrant some news individually or all together by NWBO I will {be} shocked.”
One needs to be more than just vigilant when dealing with “unseasoned low price equities with little Wall St. sponsorship and low institutional ownership”
Speaking of Shorts - it is interesting to follow Weyland Tech’s (IHub message board WEYL) strategy to identify naked shorts…..those same scalawags that are suspect in victimizing NWBO. WEYL’s action was suggested to NWBO some time ago on our MB but, for whatever reason, was not adopted.

“All you people here are just writers for the ongoing soap opera. You don't want anything to end and certainly don't want to challenge leadership or Woodford. That's obvious by the way any idea to standup for yourselves gets ignored. The game here is to keep retail engaged.
It's all a lie. I'm done here.”
He’s doing great Doc Logic. He’s been to 6 rehab sessions now and he’s 6 weeks from his surgery. The rehab people are all super pleased with his progress as well. Best thing... he’s in no pain. Thank you so much for asking!
