funindasun and floblu14,
Yeppers it is big. So far they are saying they don't think one vaccine can take care of the problem.
If the results come in top line it might be a barn burner.
They will know the results in weeks. If the results are top line they are far ahead with the progress the drug has already made.
Time will tell.

Floblu14,
Would it not make sense for MNTA to use the voucher for M254 due to the mutiple uses that is going after? That is the one then need to get to crank out profit quickly.
Getting 54 or 74 uses would make that voucher cost per drug a very good deal IMHO.

No I had not seen that. Sounds like they want to be Darwin Award Winners with MNTA saying they were going to have more information on results shortly. Fine with me.
Bunch of people around here are getting the Covid virus. Just doesn't want to go away.One friend tested positive yesterday. We have not been around him for a couple of months. 5 others in our complex have come down with it.
I will be getting the test shortly before they will do a hip replacement surgery on me. I have monitored my O2 and temp and no indications of it yet. Only problem is they are cancelling July surgeries and rescheduling until late August. I am worried they will cancel mine for Aug. 12th and I am in extreme pain. I tried to bump it up to no avail. I was able to get them to give me some pain meds for when the pain is out of control.
If we hear MNTA is working on Covid this stock is likely to explode. They would be ahead of the game and on a total different approach if I understand it right.
I think more people would be willing to go along with ours vs. some of the other vaccines being worked on. If accurate, I see people making comment after comment on the net that they won't take a Gates vaccine.
Not sure about the new patent application and if it means anything with J & J. We shall see shortly I guess.

Let us hope MNTA is ahead of the curve on moving forward studying the potential. They commented the last CC call they were being asked to reconsider the pancreatic drug for covid.
I think they can develop a block buster with their past work for pancreatic cancer. They are already ahead of the curve on what they learned and showed the FDA from that study. It should take less time to fine tune the potential.

MNTA to the rescue?
"A new study suggests up to 8.5% of people who overcome the coronavirus do not develop antibodies against a second infection.
Scientists from St George’s University of London looked for the immune-fighting proteins in 177 people in the weeks after they fought off the infection.
Antibodies prevent a virus from reinfecting an individual, but tend to diminish over time.
With the number of confirmed coronavirus cases approaching 8 million, one expert pointed out close to 800,000 may become reinfected, reducing hopes of herd immunity.
“Reassuringly”, those who did produce these antibodies continued to do so two months later.
The same expert stressed, however, that we need to understand the immune response several years down the line."
If they can put their knowledge and advanced work on the pancreatic drug to work fast they just might pull it off. Doesn't look like it is going away any time soon.
Others might develop a vaccine for Covid-19, but will it be totally effective?

Momenta is in the top 10 stock increases today according to Yahoo Finance.
There will be a bunch of investors picking up on this tonight as they search the web.
We finished number 8 which is no small feat for a mostly unknown stock to the average investor.
We have three Phase 111"a going on and continued positive news on all fronts.
M254 alone has 57 plus symptoms the drug might help and they are going for approval for all at one time.
MS patients have to be optimistic with todays news. Less shots, less often likely, with a subcue and better health potential.
If they could pull off a Covid-19 Racine before everyone else the sky is the limit. How many millions or more of shots world wide? Not saying they will, but as they said they already have a step up on clinical trials due to the pancreatic trials.

floblu,
I hope all listen to the conference call. They were really upbeat. They are looking to have a subcue shot for over once a month approved at the same time.
For patients this will likely be a big plus vs. other company drugs.
My take from the CC is that they think they will be better than any other drug out there now and will less reactions and less shots. My words.
They are setting up M254 with these clinical trials at the same time along with the other indications.
Covid 19 was a big surprise and like they say they are ahead of the curve with all their other clinical trials on pancreatic cancer as their drug does not increase the bleeding like heparin does.
It is going to be a very interesting last six months of the year here as all these clinical trials come in during the last half of the year.
The great thing is the most investors still have not heard about our company.

funindasun,
Good morning likewise.
We were posting at the same time.
I think the last paragraph on the press release was saying in so many words they think we are better vs. the others.
I do wish they would remember they have investors on the West coast and it was 5:30 here when they had the CC. Missed it when it is that early. Didn't even see the PR until 6:30. We are 3 hours behind in the summer. Do they even think about that?
I think the rest of the year is going to be looking up big time.

I just let the board know what I see. It either works out or doesn't work out all the time. I don't ask you to respond.
Let us wait and see as the 6,190,000 shorts, as of 5-29, get margin calls tonight.
As today is the end of the next reporting period we will know the true number for 6-15 in a few days.
I suspect the number might be higher.

You are welcome. Read the rest.
The more I think about this I am wondering if Momenta is going to claim their patent should not be valid at all for manufacturing. ie "they did not adequately describe the manufacturing process" and the patent should never have been approved.
Copaxone would have had to go off patent for us to get FDA approval to produce a generic.
Therefore, if their patent wasn't proper in the first place and never should have been approved, could they argue Teva should not be able to manufacture Copaxone at all since they may never haver had a valid patent. I know that is wild but they had to be off patent for us to get a generic approval.
Just saying, if they never fully described the manufacturing process are the now stopped from producing the drug. If that happens, it is rocket time for Momenta. Otherwise why go to all this trouble if they were not going to shut Teva down on selling Copaxone? Just thinking out loud here.

This is interesting from Espacenet,
https://worldwide.espacenet.com/publicationDetails/description?CC=US&NR=2020172571A1&KC=A1&FT=D&ND=3&date=20200604&DB=&locale=en_EP
Talking about Teva they say,
"DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0015] Other than a statement about molecular weight and amino acid composition, which are recited in the FDA-approved label for the product, the label and other available literature for COPAXONE® does not provide detailed information about the physiochemical characteristics of the product. It has been previously found that Pyro-Glu (FIG. 1) is a component of Copaxone® (glatiramer acetate or GA) that is present within a predetermined range (U.S. Ser. No. 12/408,058). For example, in many cases the pyro-Glu content of a GA preparation can be between 2000 ppm and 7000 ppm or 2400-6500 ppm. “
Not sure what impact this has as regards to Teva. All I can think is this might be making a case that Teva can’t extend their patent for lack of an adequate description.
That just might put us in the drivers seat. We shall see.

Kawasaki disease.
Just wondering with the Covid-19 starting to cause Kawasaki type disease, in children, if MNTA is paying attention as they are on fast track for dealing with the FDA for this disease.
Might be an opportunity in light of more children starting to show up with symptoms like this disease from Covid-19
They were talking about it on the news last night.

vinmantoo,
It is very relevant to making the Ivig plasma donated go further on those donating that had the virus.
Instead of just one person getting the donated plasma it can be spread out to many with lower doses of the hsivig modified plasma. Remember that it is up to 100 times more powerful.
Boing X 2
Floblu and Funindasun,
I agree with both of you.
MNTA has enough informations from the clinical trials to go to the FDA and say there should be a trial with this known safe dose, from our on going clinical trial, which already has shown effect at a low dose.
What have they got to loose. There have been no major problems on their regular clinical trial.
Only one donor of Covid-19 plasma isn't going to cut it to do an enormous population of infected people.
Only MNTA has the ability to make the IVIg go further with their patented process.
Good question for the up coming quarterly conference call.
Floblu you have the inside track on getting this question answered.

funindadun,
I would not be surprised if the low dose hsivig will not do the same thing.
MNTA needs to tie down their patent for Covid-19 with hsivig.
They were already mentioning Covid-19. Need to make sure they have all the bases covered here.
There will not be enough IVIG to go around along with all the other uses IMHO.
Boing X 2
funindasun,
I agree.
I would much rather take a sub Q shot of the modified IVig than a Bill Gates vaccine shot.
MNTA has the tech to pull off the sylation of the Covid 19 IVIg quickly. A vaccine might take a year or longer.and then who knows what they put in the vaccine. Mercury as they have done in the past?
They are finding out more people have been infected then they thought so supply might be there to rapidly protect more people.

That would make this a blockbuster drug with the IVig shortages.
It would not surprise me if they come to us for help on the covid-19 virus. It sounds like they might be working on something already.
This virus keeps on mutating and I am not so sure it is going away fast. Az cases jumped yesterday by 265 and Mexico is seeing it escalate by 10 percent in one day.
This is not the flu. I feel it is more complicated. A short time now will tell.
We bought a new car after going to six car dealers. The only people looking, with masks and gloves, were a few older people. Great time to get a zero to less than .1 percent interstate's rate with good credit. The show rooms are almost empty and the car dealers are struggling to say the least.
Neimen Marcus and AMC theaters are filing for bankruptcy.
Restaurant Mgr we know said he expects 30 Percent of restaurants not to reopen. He said most don't have packaging supplies on hand to do take out orders only. Hard to get supplies now. His restaurants hope to open in 10 days when they get some supplies.
Another article today said they expect 80 percent of restaurants not to reopen.

But, but this can't be! MNTA is calling IVig a drug.
How can that be when a certain person on the board says it is not a drug?
Before he responds, I am aware it is a blood product but does require a prescription.
I intend to keep on calling it a drug otherwise it would not require FDA approval.
Love the new patent application 1-10%. Will be a blockbuster if it ends up with those numbers.
Will be interested tor read the claims when they are posted.

I feel for you and wish you well.. It does take a while for you to get things transported to you.
We went to our sons in another city last night and as we came back this am. we stopped at a Costco in his city and there was a two mile long line waiting to get into the store.
They were letting seniors in an hour early. We left and came back to Phoenix and stopped at the Costco near our house. There was a mile long line there. We got in early as we are over age 60. We were able to get a package of paper towels and toilet paper for our son who works long hours and has trouble getting time to shop. He is a first line defense worker.
No tuna, cans of peas, chicken, meat etc. We were able to get him a eight pack of chicken noodle soup.

Also, type A more prone than type O to get the virus. Not saying one with type O can't get it but it might be less severe.

You are well aware IVIG is an approved drug. MNTA modified the drug. If no adverse affects and tying down the dosage amount it should get approved faster than if a non approved drug as a starting point.
You are a sore looser, that sold his stock, that just has to keep stirring the pot on this board.
