ADXS' generally poor reputation is also a factor (IMO), as compared to some of the other companies (public and private) who are pursuing neoantigen cancer vaccines.
I find that assertion rather puzzling! What sort of "poor reputation" does ADXS have? Is it based on poor performance of ADXS's science, poor performance in the clinic, is it the low PPS? And, what particular audience is it that has negative feelings about the company? Is it other biotech executives, is it BPs, perhaps biotech analysts?
I don't imagine there were polls taken, and other than the gnashing of teeth that takes place on this board, I'm not aware that there is some sort of public perception that prevents the company from gaining recognition as it moves forward with its technology.
Not least of the factors in attracting positive attention, is I would think precisely that ADXS is operating in space a with tremendous excitement and anticipation.
I would appreciate any further elucidation of the theory of ADVS's "poor reputation".
