OPKO Partner Vifor Fresenius Receives Marketing Approval for RAYALDEE in Canada
https://tinyurl.com/y7b4ufqmS
Canada is a small market and doesn't have America's pretend capitalism milking the poor and sick so it's not a huge deal, speaking of which:
In the CKD-MBD Market, OPKO's Rayaldee Continues to Struggle While Keryx's Auryxia Gains Momentum, According to Latest Quarterly Update from Spherix Global Insights
Nov 14, 2017
EXTON, Pa., Nov. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- A survey of over 200 US nephrologists fielded in late September indicates that, while many changes are afoot in the bone and mineral metabolism space, the launch of Rayaldee appears to be at a standstill. Despite Q3 reports in OPKO's earnings call about the growth in Rayaldee prescription volume, the survey results detected no notable expansion in the user base of Rayaldee, which remained at a meager 12%. Nephrologists continue to question the differentiation from generic vitamin D, although users of the drug have a favorable view of it as a hybrid of nutritional and active vitamin D. In addition to lacking clear clinical benefits compared to generic alternatives, after nearly a year post-launch, the leading barrier is still limited familiarity and OPKO faces a growing percent of nephrologists who do not see a role for Rayaldee in their practice. Market access issues are also plaguing uptake, particularly for current users, and less than 10% of the respondents indicate that this has improved over the past six months. Finally, the recent update to the KDIGO Clinical Practice Guideline for CKD-MBD left an ambivalent role for Rayaldee and according to one respondent "…the guidelines seem to indicate Rayaldee is a good choice – they did NOT, however, endorse it as a recommendation. The statement was a bit vague and left more questions than answers."
In contrast to Rayaldee's stagnant position, use of the iron-based phosphate binders (Velphoro from Vifor-Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma and Auryxia from Keryx) seems to be accelerating in the hyperphosphatemia market with more than 40% of the respondents reporting increased use of these brands in the past three months. Auryxia in particular saw a sharp uptick in its user base, surpassing that of Velphoro for the first time since launch. Indeed, heavy promotion is evident with both brands with close to half of the nephrologists reporting increased promotion in the past three months. By comparison, 40% report decreased promotion with Sanofi Renal's Renvela, which is beginning to see erosion from generic challengers. And in this market, promotion matters. Nephrologists that have had a call with the Velphoro or Auryxia representative in the past month project more than double the brand share compared to those who have not been called on.
Looking forward, significant increases are expected to continue for Auryxia and Velphoro......
Can be worthwhile to shop for doctors but in our rural area one is often hard to hunt up.
And when TV advertising takes the place of medical journals...
Ah well, I expect Frost will teach them nephrologists snd others some good medicine.

Dr. Karen Liu has enormous tasks ahead of her. She might need to work with tech persons at Data and Telecom Centers, first by computer simulations and then insertion of actual devices onto their system.
Geez, you make her sound like a scientist or even, heavens above, an engineer rather than a grubby flack who has been selling tired, rusted iron.
She doesn't seem to fit the mold of a used car saleswoman to me either but then I never met a woman selling rusty iron.
Best, Terry
Ain't necessarily so.
Is it possible that the upcoming news release will have leapfrogged the legacy standard packaging? The recent hire of Dr Karen Liu appears to support my theory.
I tend to agree that the omens are positive but Dr. Liu hardly sounds like some mindless flack hired for the occasion and easily let go.
I suggest, as gently as I am able, that someone like Dr. Liu is hired when one is able to do so rather than on the spur of the moment.
An extraordinarily instructive example of such strategic hiring that cost a CEO enormous grief can be found in the building of an entire sales staff for a magic jack o' lantern mushroom cancer drug years before any possible approval.
Mushrooms, like broccoli and other foods, are known to shrink cancers and there has even been some preliminary investigation of the broccoli chemical thought to be responsible.
Jack o'lantern mushrooms are thought to be poisonous. [Many mushrooms are thought to be deadly poisonous to humans but there are no volunteers for testing. ] A synthetic drug was developed to avoid the problem and clinical trials were very promising to loud hurrahs from Wall Street science with soaring prices.
But, golly darn, after all the trials were done and everything looked spiffy, it turned out the synthetic mushroom drug was also too poisonous. Toxic is the word sophisticated people use.
But you see, that dreadful market failure under the salesmanship of the the marketing arm CHUCKEE built instead of figuring on selling out to Merck or some other dumbo had made the biotech a veritable powerhouse despite the toxic jack o'lantern trick.
My guess is Dr. Liu could sell snow to Eskim - er, Inuits if all else fails. We have more snow here than we need every winter even with global warming setting in.

Heavens to Betsy, kindergarten science has penetrated to elders here thanks to Bagged dragging them over the line. Not a single duh!
There is a dime store stem cell biotech that thinks it can make a pot of gold growing skin and selling pieces like rug merchants. Scout's honor!
Polarity does have something of value though that Lebby could probably obtain for small change without need for more high-priced cash from LPC or waiting on Polarity's inevitable bankruptcy: their stock symbol - COOL.
What a wonderful memory tool.
Thanks, Bagged.
Best, Terry
Bezos partner with LWLG?
Obviously it would probably work wonders for the old pirate but a dumbo buying into the organic food crock proves he has little or no scientific bent.
I would be mighty surprised, though that is a rare combination that might conceivably work out very well. I would venture Bezos would at least know enough to let Lebby run his business without nterference.
Just speculatin' on an interesting thought in a weak moment.
Best, Terry
My brain is also quite sharp
Hilarious! I hope your keepers are not too mean to you, rambler, and don't let you cut yourself on your - er, brain.
If you ever have anything informative to say, for heaven's sake don't hold back.
Best, Terry
I'm not sure how easy it will be to make their own polymer photonics though
Just label any old plastic tubing or anything that looks like plastic tubing "organic" like Bezos is now doing with food.
I got a kick out of reading government watchdogs are now listing fake organic foods. Besides water, air, salt, iron and a handful of other minerals, I come up empty on non-organic foods.
If Bezos can't sell his plastic organics for photons, maybe he can sell them as organic food.
Best, Terry
And thank you very much.
I think outfits like bitcoin, if not solely fraudulent, are still empty promotions but COOL [Polarity] had some interest as a far more spectacular futuristic science is operating on the same plane.

Play any word games you like but lasers could easily slice you into little pieces while flashlights or even very large spotlights will not harm you greatly unless they fall on you.
Lasers introduced photonics into vocabularies.
Guys working most closely with early lasers in our lab were ordered to get regular eye exams, weekly I think.
Controlling light as packets of powerful energy as opposed to a mostly harmless wave is what LWLG is involved in [admittedly sunlight is not totally harmless but then all light is more than a wave].
Why fight science? Can't we act like adults?
Best, Terry
Country Squire,
WHAT HAPPENED ,,,Down 57 cents ???
Price spikes are always volatile.
At any given time with any stock or most anything else in an auction market, price spikes are volatile.
Years ago, a stock of interest to me at the time - Vermillion [I have forgotten its former name then] - rose from a nickel a share to $17 in two hours. The next day fat-fingered traders filled message boards with tales of woe about managing to lose money on the day.
The event was even forecast and had a follow through. Over a period of weeks the bankrupt OTC stock rose from a penny to $28.
It was not just a scam. A bankrupt biotech had managed to get FDA approval for its lone drug with volunteer help and donations for a phone line.
Last I looked years ago the stock was a dollar or two with bum management but still a hefty gain over a penny or nickel.
For all I know OPK could be falling off a cliff but it pleases me to think otherwise except as another exceptional buying opportunity.
Best, Terry
forgive me my ignorance. it was michael lebby himself who told us optoelectronics is now called photonics.
Are we supposed to take your unsupported word for an unlikely error by Dr, Lebby or is it possible your recollections are fallible?
I gave you brief documentary evidence Dr. Lebby was mistaken if he said any such thing and could easily have filled pages with more.
Lasers are quite different from flashlights, believe it or not.
I suppose Lebby could have had a brief lapse but I prefer to think it was you since my money is on Lebby despite denials.
Best, Terry
this isn't just a pie-in-the-sky idea.
To put it mildly.
It's too damn easy to get carried away with a huge discovery that shapes up well even against some other landmark discoveries.
We had to fight a pitched battle with our oldest kid's first school over a smallpox vaccine. Our pediatrician refused to provide, prescribe or recommend the vaccine that did some real harm to a few kids when there hadn't been a case of smallpox for generations.
Smallpox may have been unique among viral diseases in retaining its virulence through generations. Even the Black Death of the Middle Ages lost much of its terror though its purported milder descendant - bubonic plague - is no joy. Jenner's vaccine was a huge breakthrough though his use of an unwitting young boy as a test subject was vile.
Far tougher was getting doctors to wash their hands. Even Louis Pasteur became reckoned as little more than a street madman when he took up the cudgels for Ignaz Semmelweis - christened "Savior of Mothers" - passing out fliers to passers-by near hospitals before his death. Sammelweis had been arrested and died a week or two later from police beatings for demanding obstetricians wash their hands before examining pregnant women. The "germ theory" was still novel.
Hopefully Dr. West will fare a bit better than some of his forerunners with a truly astounding discovery.
Best, Terry
Photonics - also known as 'opto-electronics'
Not the same.
From the not always reliable Wikipedia:
Optoelectronics is the study and application of electronic devices and systems that source, detect and control light, usually considered a sub-field of photonics. In this context, light often includes invisible forms of radiation such as gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet and infrared, in addition to visible light.
?? Maybe the "subfield" should be reversed.
Photonics is the physical science of light (photon) generation, detection, and manipulation through emission, transmission, modulation, signal processing, switching, amplification, and detection/sensing.
Much better.
Photonics treats light as particles [photons] while light is normally treated as waves. Maybe Lebby should change the name of our company to Light Bolts?
Best, Terry
Stock62,
of course there were never any paid stock promotions.
Oh?
I wish Dr Lebby did promote the company more
LOL!
IMHO Lebby is a splendid promoter of LWLG.
Could he do better than all the appearances, presentations, announcements and conferences?
Sure but all of us have limitations.
Even those worried about aging and showing the telltale signs of Alzheimer's with inexplicable anger and rambling dialogues might be soothed by Dr. West's inimitable promotion of immortality.
I am making nothing up.
When I first heard the scientist who discovered telomeres with their responsibility for both growth and aging, I was most surprised by his enthusiasm for his immortalized fat cells that are expected to be first to market treating the sunken facial features of AIDS victims but then later every woman can look like Stormy...
The webpage for the spin-off fountain of youth [AgeX] way beyond beauty fat [totally my wording] is already up with all manner of preliminaries yet to be settled.
What Dr. West does that may be beyond Lebby's capability is explain a difficult science to Einstein's grandmother so that she can add understanding of immortality to relativity. Nobody understands quantum mechanics or promoters of another failed parallel processor called preposterously a quantum computer would be a stale joke among the science savvy.
Best, Terry
nsomniyak,
Are we sure AgeX will be publicly traded from day 1?
Can't ever be sure of such things until they happen but Dr. West has had success in building a small constellation of companies and does have outside investors in AgeX, indicating moneyed investors.
Where the stock might be listed and when will happen when it happens. Much remains to be known about any listing. Even details of the split from BTX remain in negotiation.

MW Harry Boxer's four health-care stocks to watch
-
OPKO Health Inc.(OPK) gained 27 cents to $5.79 on 9.3 million shares traded Tuesday. There was no news from the health-care company, which engages in the diagnostics and pharmaceuticals business. The stock, which has been rallying since releasing better-than-expected earnings in early May, has broken out of a multi-year downtrend, and looks poised for more upside. Next targets are $6.50, followed by $7.50.
In my dubious opinion, the only really meaningful comment from Harry Who? is that 3 of the 4 spikers are doing it on no news.
The best runs in my experience start like a forest fire with a dry lightning strike from a cloudless sky.
How can that be?
- My theory is simple enough. Daddy Warbucks, like Frost, get breathless tips from consorts to the wealthy that may be like Frost's and Opko's own ELOX investment. There is still only the sketchiest news on ELOX's grand plans to cure - cure not treat - genetic diseases with a period [codon] too early in the transcription [cellular manufacture recipes] of proteins. This results in rare but catastrophic diseases like muscular dystrophy that created spectacular market moves for Sarepta with a dubious treatment for one of some 72 varieties. ELOX's most advanced development is for cystic fibrosis but still very early.
Should you buy either?
- Only if you think I know something though I deny it. Most of my money is in a company developing pieces of light for computation instead of electrons though every damn fool knows light is a wave.
Might as well enjoy the pain while you can. There are no second chances.
Best, Terry
maybe he will get burnt along with the other shorts when frost decide to unleash the beast hahahahaha
I think it was in Philadelphia where my wife nudged me in a diner we had just stopped in. She whispered to me that one of those madmen walking city streets we had seen outside raving to invisible spirits, like 10-foot rabbits or something, had just sat down at the end of the bar.
The waitress had just stopped him in mid-rant, greeting him like a favorite friend. Don't tell me there isn't love at first sight. I still love her
I can't help myself. Crazy people make me shiver in person. I am not alone. I saw hardened combat veterans back away automatically from one recruit in basic training when he would get that strange look in his eyes as they yelled at him.

BTW there is no 18 minute mark here.
That was the point of a sardonic rejoinder.
I notice France will be playing Croatia for the World Cup instead of Russia.
Oh to be in a Croatian restaurant in NYC, assuming there is one.
We were in a Senegalese restaurant in NYC a day or two after Senegal beat its former colonial master, France, in a past World Cup competition.
With remnants of the celebration still filling the air, even the dainty, foul-tasting, fiery hot Senegalese peppers were tolerable.
I suppose the thought of a Croatian victory over France is still repugnant to certain revanchists like my long ago Polish friends who were heroic veterans of the WWII Polish Army but it would be very sweet to me for its symbolic nature to Croatians.
Time marches on and even petty enmities from past grievous harm gets lost eventually along with the rubble.

New Frontier Data...on Friday released revised industry sales projections, predicting that the $8.3 billion U.S. medical and recreational marijuana industry will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 14.7 percent, to an estimated $25 billion by 2025.
There is no such industry since marijuana is a slang term no better than pot to describe a bifurcated industry divided at least between fully legal synthetic cannabinoid drugs and illegal - at the federal level - biologics.
The tortured ladies and gentlemen of Insys occupy the fully legal area despite the terrible pursuit by gangster government and raging, ignorant politicians ranging from President Trump to Senator Elizabeth Warren and yet continue to be the #1 target of the witch hunters.
There is change grinding to a new day.
Greenwich Pharmaceuticals is nearing FDA approval of at least one of its biologic cannabinoids but the biologics of the highly praised GWPH will always be inferior to INSY's synthetics.

DCCfan,
I've invested in both LWLG & POET on the outside chance one or the other may grow into a reasonable sized company and hopefully the SP will grow with them. Dr. Lebby is well aware of who Poet is
I have posted yawners about an early billionaire who made it on optical fiber stocks when all[?] were OTC penny stocks near or in bankruptcy.
Brad was no scientist, had little knowledge of any kind of the field but had been advised it was going to be big.
Brad liked that. Trusted the advice of what was coming and simply bought stock in every public company, whether bankrupt or not.
Of course Lebby knows about Poet and many others but he chose to be CEO of LWLG because...
Lebby is not likely to ever announce publicly any other photonics company is a dud with no future, a mediocrity or even 2nd only to LWLG.
Lebby knows the risks and obstacles of his field and that surprises and defeat constantly spring up on the cutting edge.
If you, or anyone, knows of a photonics company with transceiver devices incorporated into proprietary polymers with the abilities of LWLG's polymers please, please let me know as indicated by the Schiets's find so even we paupers can be billionaires overnight.
Don't tell anybody. People get so angry.
BTW I wish you great good fortune with POET or LWLG or both. The future certain was only ever known to cyclops and that was a curse.

The Saami and the Inuit have both lived in the further most northern reaches of the Arctic, survived a rugged life with great health despite a diet with a near absence of vegetables and grains loaded with fat, suffered much the same onslaught of efforts to exterminate and yet have only a single gene in common.

AgeX Therapeutics CEO Dr. Michael D. West to Present at Ending Age-Related Diseases
No link is provided by design but this is not a fake headline. The presenter is a respected scientist who has made a phenomenal discovery in regard to aging.
Except for one fellow here who claims "age is no excuse," and then presumably no advantage, the implications are awesome. In the unlikely event the doctor can save you from all age-related diseases - including Alzheimer's from which he appears most assuredly free from personal appraisal - one would seem to only need to avoid being eaten by alligators, nuked by one of our president's foreign friends or other such untoward events - to make it to the purported rip in the universe about a billion years in the future.
And the odds of accomplishing such limited immortality seem to me somewhat better than having pure energy instead of matter do all our heavy thinking for us instead of corrupt matter that Gnostic Christians tried to free humans from by mass murder.
I will leave figuring the odds to you and other heavy thinkers hereabouts.
Best, Terry
Thanks, Bobby. Clears up a lot for me and congrats on your figuring a somewht rational price for AgeX.
Though I'm sure August 1st is going to be an interesting trading day for BTX as well. It *should* drop 21% after BTX is spun off on 7/31.
I am sure you meant "after AgeX is spun off on 7/31."
But the great majority of stock investors and traders are not accountants, let alone CPA's, and no reputable CPA would give an opinion on any accounting value of AgeX without a great deal more information that is still in negotiation.
Buried somewhere in the accounting I surmise will be money going to BTX as happened with other spin-offs, though this one is unique. Such financing of BTX has been ingenious.
My WAG ["wildass guess"] is that BTX's price will falter little or none on D-Day with a possibility of a rise. I haven't the foggiest notion what AgeX will fetch.
Best, Terry
Nice, Bobby, but how did you come up with market value of AgeX before it even gets to market? Did you list full value of "subsidiaries" or percentage value?

JohnnyLightwave,
No way you make this hire unless you're ready to roll out a product to the market. Better yet, no way Dr. Liu makes the move unless she's convinced that the wave has the goods
For sure, Johnny, but maybe some kind soul can enlighten me on the previous abortive attempt to sell the unfinished polymers alone. Was that maybe at about the same time shareholders rejected additional sale of shares to raise money for further R&D?
I was not aware the latter had happened but it is as common as dirt for stockholders to destroy promising R&D for penurious thinking. I suspect even more common than the ludicrous monstrosities going through comedic cycles of hugely bloated float and reverse splits with no end in sight ever.
This explains a lot about the previous torturous path of LWLG and previous aliases.
I have always rejected the notion that need creates invention.
Even long ago in a very short college course in economics taught by an unadmired prof, I was surprised by instruction to skip a section on nuclear power development. The textbook by Samuelson was far and away the most popular ever written at the time whatever the case today.
"Samuelson knows nothing about physics, let alone nuclear power," said teach.
For the first and only time, I had to give grudging respect to the professor with his plastic science.
In reality, invention creates need.

I prefer to think about the wonderful possibilities headlined by the imminent proof of a cure for blindness.
My wife, who is 7 years younger than I, has become badly crippled with arthritis claimed to be osteoarthritis without a precise diagnosis. Our dog has miraculously left her deathbed with a "cure" for ostensibly that may be applicable to humans.
The "cure" is a new drug that keeps the joints lubricated while steroids and NSAIDS restrict the lubrication. All that is known for now is that it is a wonder drug, at least temporarily, for some dogs.
While we desperately look forward to eventual approval of such a drug for humans, AgeX proposes development of a multitude of such drugs and treatments.
A full life beats even a long life in my humble opinion.
Just a thought.
Best, Terry
I have not been as enthusiastic about the prospects for AgeX as for the parent company but there surely are some eye-catching tidbits in this announcement:
AGEX-BAT1 and AGEX-VASC1 are cell-based therapies in the preclinical stage of development comprised of young regenerative cells formulated in the company's proprietary HyStem® matrix designed to correct metabolic imbalances in aging and to restore vascular support in ischemic tissues respectively.
Clear as mud, with or without glasses.
From Wikipedia:
Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).
That's clear enough and restoring vascular support [veins] is obvious enough but the methodology is not to me [hardly surprising].
In addition to the product candidates in early development, the company, through its LifeMap subsidiary, currently markets genomic interpretation algorithms. In addition, the company, through its ESI BIO division, markets Cytiva®, comprised of PSC-derived heart muscle cells used in screening drugs for efficacy and safety.
Talk about hitting the ground running
I haven't any idea how the market will react to this wildly futuristic culmination of Dr. West's monumental discovery but it should be a nice diversion from troubled times.
I assume the fees are nothing to write home about but still....

Archaeological evidence shows that the first human use of geothermal resources in North America occurred more than 10,000 years ago with the settlement of Paleo-Indians at hot springs.
https://tinyurl.com/https-www-energy-gov-eere-ge
The premiere geothermal power company in America also utilizes waste energy, most notably from cement companies, to generate power but its growth overall has been sluggish while the poorest countries on the planet are going balls-out for the cheapest, most dependable, greenest, more abundant than all other energy sources combined from the earth's internal sun. Such countries range from Nicaragua to Kenya, Rwanda to Papua New Guinea. The 2nd and 3rd leading countries in geothermal power generation are The Philippines and Mexico behind the U.S.' diminishing heritage lead. The fastest growing geothermal developer is Turkey, beset by war, revolution, corruption and failing democracy with mediocre geothermal assets.
Meanwhile American oil companies proudly proclaim their rapid development of the most dangerous fossil fuel of all: methane.
The longterm future development of photonics promises a huge lowering of harm to the planet from natural reduction in heat generation that is far more promising than the flight to Iceland by datacenters.
Does any of this help your personal profit expectations from LWLG?

The greatest patent story I know of was a patent awarded to an unqualified scientist who provided a sworn affidavit to the Patent Office that he had applied for the patent based on a stolen inter-office memorandum his employer had ordered him to submit.
The patent examiner testified he found the wording of the patent submittal rather unusual in what seemed a general ignorance of the science but the USPTO rejected the challenge because the scientist awarded the patent hadn't proven he wasn't the inventor.
The consequences threatened to destroy the true inventing company completely with their scientific foundation demolished but the winner went bankrupt by its own folly. The patent was returned to its true inventor, a former Russian professor who had carried out his experiments at Moscow University.
Last I heard the Russian was a professor at Harvard. He had tired of the corporate wars. I guess he was more attuned to the even more lurid academic ones.
I think the continuing development of the science of LWLG headed by one of the top experts worldwide is the greatest challenge to thieves.
