I wonder where is will end up

I think any of us that know this industry already have the answers to these questions. DCVax and NW Bio will not remain independent long enough for any of this to happen under the current Management Team. It will be sold, friendly or hostile. That is pretty much a given.

Past experience with other M & A that the current NWBO valuation is based on is meaningless IMO, unless the scope of their potential applications & the expected (hoped for) outcome is analyzed & critically considered.

This all has to be proven, with trials, trials and more trials. In order to expand the technology beyond GBM it will cost $Billions and take another 7-10 years. If you know this industry well, you should know how many road-blocks that exist at every turn, in the most regulated space any company has to operate in. You are also assuming a better technology and competition doesn't exist. Rest assured it does. What is new and shiny today could be old and rusted tomorrow. Science is moving faster that at any point in time.

its broad application potentials have been documented & future expansions are reasonably predictable

Once again, we are years and years and $Billions away from any of this. It also hasn't been proven in other indications until a trial is run and results are reviewed and determined a success or failure. You are putting the cart before the horse. I am long and own way too many shares, but a lot of what you say is based on opinion, not fact. The only facts we have that can be vetted via a marketing application and approval is with GBM. All other indications are speculation at this point. Trust me, the FDA just wont take your word for it ;) This is fact.

Its pretty easy to put a valuation on DCVax at this point: $15-25B based off what we know today and the numbers for treating GBM worldwide, not tomorrow or 10 years from now.
