I'M ALSO STILL WATCHING AND PATIENTLY WAITING
So what happened to everybody?
I'm buying a house - closing tomorrow----
and I'm not selling these shares ---
they will be worth their weight in gold.....
and IMO, very soon...
Copied from another board yesterday and worth reading:
The uplisting on MTRE is pending and likely to be complete in a short time (expected to be within two weeks).
Once the uplist is done, the three company acquisitions that have been arranged will be completed, and the LifeHealth spin-off divvy can proceed. This involves giving a FREE share of a second, separate company to existing shareholders of MTRE at a ratio of 1:1. This is like a gift!
When all is said and done, shareholders will own shares in two OTCBB companies, both with solid business plans. MTRE will be focused on research and marketing and will be immediately profitable after the closing of the acquisitions. LifeHealth has plans in place including products to market in the non-prescription dental care market, and is exopected to also be profitable in short-order.
There are likely only a handful of days during which MTRE shares can be bought before the uplisting is done.... at bargain prices, IMO. Further info in the I-Box on the MTRE board.
Now you can't say that you weren't told! Do your own DD.
Thanks for posting the CSBR news redsox.
Looks real good to me. Pre-clinical testing of their own drug. Looks like other bios' can use this drug for their own testing. Anyone else posted to their own boards yet? Any opinions?

http://www.championsbiotechnology.com/news.html
This company will be worth a fortune once they receive their DOT approval. Those that can stand the wait will be justly rewarded. Those that can't will go on to other things. With little invested, IMO this is worth the risk and the wait.
Holding strong - waiting patiently. IMO, this little gem will take off soon.
Today's Events - Bouncing back...
This was posted on another message board:
Getting back to the value of this stock
Based on the early morning conference call and webcast - IMO - the drug works; the clinicals will continue; and the partner PRX is positive, and is up for the day.
The weak hands that knew nothing about this drug just ran for the hills - thus putting this stock price on sale for the next few days.
Those that sold after hours at .60 are already probably wishing that they waited.
I didn't wait. I bought more, averaging down substantially. Thanks for today's sale.
IMO, especially at today's prices - this is a big money maker....
It would have been nice to make big $$$ today -- but all is not lost -- just delayed....

ACEL Announces Retirement of Chief Executive Officer
http://www.snl.com/irweblinkx/news.aspx?IID=4104784
Press Release ALFACELL CORPORATION (NASDAQ - ACEL)
Alfacell Announces Retirement of Chief Executive Officer
Company Release - 04/28/2008 08:30
SOMERSET, N.J., April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alfacell Corporation (Nasdaq: ACEL) today announced that Kuslima Shogen, the company's chief executive officer and scientific founder, will retire from the company on or before March 31, 2009. The company also announced that the royalty agreement between Ms. Shogen and Alfacell has been terminated.
The termination of the royalty agreement between Alfacell and Ms. Shogen could reduce payments from the Company to Ms. Shogen by an estimated $20 million over the next 10 years, if the company's lead compound, ONCONASE(R), is granted marketing approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Under the terms of the retirement agreement between the company and Ms. Shogen, Ms. Shogen will continue to receive her current salary for a period of two years after she steps down as chief executive officer. In exchange for the termination of the royalty agreement, Ms. Shogen will receive a cash bonus, an additional cash bonus upon receiving marketing approval by the FDA of ONCONASE for the treatment of malignant mesothelioma, a significant stock option grant that vests upon such FDA approval of ONCONASE, cash payments for the first two years following approval of ONCONASE, and cash payments from Alfacell in the event aggregate annual net sales of ONCONASE exceed $100 million.
"Tina's contributions to Alfacell and the science behind ONCONASE have been immeasurable," said David Sidransky, M.D., Alfacell's chairman. "Her dedication and commitment are unmatched and I know that I speak for everyone at Alfacell in offering congratulations as she moves on to a well-earned retirement."
In addition to the retirement of Ms. Shogen, the company announced that Lawrence A. Kenyon has been named president. Mr. Kenyon joined Alfacell in January 2007 as executive vice president, chief financial officer and corporate secretary. He was promoted to chief operating officer and elected to the board of directors in November 2007. The change in responsibilities is consistent with the efforts of the board of directors to develop a succession plan that allows for a smooth leadership transition upon the potential marketing approval of ONCONASE.
"It is a comfort for me to entrust the further development and potential commercialization of our exciting pipeline to Mr. Kenyon," said Ms. Shogen. "It has been a privilege to be part of Alfacell where I have experienced the rare opportunity to make an important scientific contribution and achieve the realization of my life's work."
"Our focus has begun to shift towards the necessary steps to grow Alfacell and maximize value for our shareholders," added Mr. Kenyon. "The termination of the royalty agreement will allow us to enhance our ability to increase investment in our promising technology platform. We are excited about the future of Alfacell, and I would like to congratulate Tina and commend her for the sound scientific foundation she has built for us."
About ONCONASE(R)
ONCONASE is a first-in-class therapeutic product candidate based on Alfacell's proprietary ribonuclease (RNase) technology. A natural protein isolated from the leopard frog, ONCONASE has been shown in the laboratory and clinic to target cancer cells while sparing normal cells. ONCONASE triggers apoptosis, the natural death of cells, via multiple molecular mechanisms of action.
About Alfacell Corporation
Alfacell Corporation is the first company to advance a biopharmaceutical product candidate that works in a manner similar to RNA interference (RNAi) through late-stage clinical trials. The product candidate, ONCONASE, is an RNase that overcomes the challenges of targeting RNA for therapeutic purposes while enabling the development of a new class of targeted therapies for cancer and other life-threatening diseases. In addition to a Phase IIIb study in malignant mesothelioma, Alfacell is conducting a Phase I/II trial of ONCONASE in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other solid tumors.

IMO, this stock is heading towards a major exchange before years' end with $4 plus.
Time to grab the cheap shares while you can.
Always nice, and may just be another CSBR upswing.

This is great news for common holders for the following reasons:
1 - This financing is ACCRETIVE to the common shareholders, with the restricted stock being sold at a 59% premium to yesterdays closing price.
2 - The $2.5 million represents a 4.3% ownership stake. Hopefully we will be able to figure out who has stepped up into such a significant ownership role. The identity of the mystery investor may provide additional clues about where the company is headed. I would speculate that a well off friend of the good doctor put the money up due to reasons identified in #3 below.
3 - It appears that the company has avoided vulture financing as the investment is not structured as preferred stock, convertible debt, or priced at a level which is severely dilutive to the public common holders. Again it is my speculation that the company has something pretty impressive in the pipeline for them to be able to secure additional funds on such advantageous terms.

Pass, M.D., a member of Alfacell’s TCAB and a professor of surgery and chief of the division of thoracic surgery and thoracic oncology at NYU School of Medicine and Comprehensive Cancer Center, and their team, were presented The Landon Foundation-AACR INNOVATOR Award for International Collaboration in Cancer Research at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in San Diego.
The team of international collaborators has discovered a unique mesothelioma epidemic in three Turkish villages and has demonstrated that it is caused by a genetic predisposition to mineral fiber carcinogenesis, a gene-environment interaction. These findings and additional research may be applied to understand other geographic areas and communities worldwide to help prevent this deadly form of cancer and help find new life-saving treatments.
The AACR INNOVATOR grant (two-year $100,000 grant) will be applied to additional research for their study.
We, here at Alfacell, congratulate Drs. Carbone and Pass, and their team on receiving this prestigious award and look forward to their continued support with research on the ONCONASE® (ranpirnase) program and mesothelioma.

SOMERSET, N.J., April 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alfacell Corporation (Nasdaq: ACEL) today announced that Dr. Intae Lee with the University of Pennsylvania has reported that Alfacell's ONCONASE (ranpirnase) could be a promising radiation sensitizer for lung cancer treatment. Dr. Lee presented the pre-clinical in vivo and in vitro data in a poster at the 2008 American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting being held April 12 - 16 in San Diego.
In the poster titled "The inhibition of radiation repair by ranpirnase +/- I-buthionine sulfoximide on lung cancer," Dr. Lee provided pre-clinical evidence that ONCONASE +/- I-buthionine sulfoximide significantly increased the radiation-induced growth delay of lung tumors in vivo without increases in skin reaction, compared to radiation alone. Additionally, in vivo and in vitro data presented indicated that ONCONASE significantly increased apoptosis (programmed cell death) in several human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines (A549, NCI-H1975 and HOP-62). Dr. Lee and his team of researchers also showed that the radiation repair mechanisms known as sub-lethal damage repair (SLDR) and potentially lethal damage repair (PLDR), which lead to radiation resistance in tumors, were significantly inhibited by ONCONASE in vitro.
"Our research suggests potential utility of ONCONASE as a radiotherapy enhancer for the treatment of NSCLC patients," said Dr. Lee. "It is important to overcome PLDR as it can ultimately lead to radiation resistance. One of our key findings is the inhibiting impact of ONCONASE on the PLDR mechanism, which is a pre-requisite to developing a radiotherapy enhancer."
Kuslima Shogen, Alfacell's chief executive officer, added: "This work by Dr. Lee and his team provides further evidence of the potential for ONCONASE to mitigate the resistance that often develops in, and confounds the treatment of NSCLC."
About ONCONASE(R)
ONCONASE is a first-in-class product candidate based on Alfacell's proprietary ribonuclease (RNase) technology. A natural protein isolated from the leopard frog, ONCONASE has been shown in the laboratory and clinic to target cancer cells while sparing normal cells. ONCONASE triggers apoptosis, the natural death of cells, via multiple molecular mechanisms of action.
About Alfacell Corporation
Alfacell Corporation is the first company to advance a biopharmaceutical product candidate that works in a manner similar to RNA interference (RNAi) through late-stage clinical trials. The product candidate, ONCONASE, is an RNase that overcomes the challenges of targeting RNA for therapeutic purposes while enabling the development of a new class of targeted therapies for cancer and other life-threatening diseases. In addition to an ongoing Phase IIIb study in malignant mesothelioma, Alfacell is conducting a Phase I/II trial of ONCONASE in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other solid tumors.

SOMERSET, N.J., April 2, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alfacell Corporation (Nasdaq: ACEL) today announced that it has confirmed that 316 evaluable events (patient deaths) have occurred in the confirmatory Phase IIIb clinical trial of its lead compound, ONCONASE (ranpirnase), for the treatment of patients with unresectable malignant mesothelioma (UMM). In accordance with the statistical plan for the trial, the company has begun the process necessary to conduct the formal statistical analyses required to complete the final sections of the ONCONASE rolling New Drug Application (NDA).
The trial was designed to show a statistically significant improvement in overall survival for UMM patients who were treated with a combination of ONCONASE and doxorubicin as compared to UMM patients who were treated with doxorubicin as a single agent. Enrollment in the ONCONASE Phase IIIb clinical trial closed on Sept. 30, 2007. A total of 428 patients were enrolled in the trial.
Alfacell has licensed the U.S. commercial rights for ONCONASE to Strativa, the branded product division of Par Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Strategic marketing and distribution agreements for ONCONASE have been secured with BL&H Co. Ltd. for Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong, USP Pharma Spolka Z.O.O., an affiliate of US Pharmacia, for Eastern Europe, and GENESIS Pharma, S.A. for Southeastern Europe.
ONCONASE has been granted fast track status and orphan-drug designation for the treatment of malignant mesothelioma by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additionally, ONCONASE has been granted orphan-drug designation in the European Union and Australia.

One Day these patents will make history....
Short Lived - For a minute there yesterday, i thought we had an oral ct deal.....one day soon...
This news blackout IMO is good news. If they had anything to hide, they would hide it in a meaningless press release.
No news in this case - is good news. Load up at these cheap prices, sooner then later, we may see $2 - $3.
IMO something may be up, as the price is today....I can't find any new articles - anyone with some info??.....
