AMBS Market cap = $14 Million

TAGG peaked at $100 Million
MJNA at $100 Million
SPNG (Spongetech) at $170 Million
GZFX (GameznFlix) at $100 Million

Which one has/had more promise?


"I believe in MANF," said Dr. Rubinfeld, "I have reviewed a great number of technologies in my 45 year career in the biopharmaceutical field, and I believe that MANF could be one of the biggest successes that I have ever seen. The fundamental scientific premise of reducing protein misfolding is basic, yet very profound. The data, while early, demonstrates very clearly at the cellular level and in animals that MANF reduces apoptosis, improves cellular function, and restores behavioural deficits in a number of disease models, including Parkinson's, Stroke, Myocardial Infarction and Traumatic Brain Injury. These are all indications with very large markets and clear unmet medical need. I believe that if we are able to further de-risk MANF with positive toxicology studies and early clinical data, the Company's new orphan drug strategy could get MANF to market rather expeditiously. MANF has the commercial potential to become a blockbuster drug."

Dr. Rubinfeld is one of the four original co-founders of Amgen .

Dr. Rubinfeld served as a Senior Director at Cetus Corporation from 1987 to 1990 until he co-founded SuperGen in 1991, and served as its President & CEO through 2003.
