well a decent rns on the lead programme would make this interesting as certasinly tightly coiled. From the interims:

-- The first six months of 2011 were dominated by the pre-clinical evaluation of AGI-350,, a novel presentation of an existing marketed drug which AGI is developing to treat a significant unmet medical need in the critical care setting.

-- AGI has completed preliminary development and in-vitro evaluation of a form and formulation of AGI-350 which is specifically designed to provide effective and efficient delivery of the drug to the lung.

-- AGI entered into a technology access agreement with Aerogen Ltd. to provide specialized aerosol technology for the administration and delivery of AGI-350 to ventilated patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) setting. This proprietary technology is being customized for use with AGI-350 in the target patient population and prototypes have been developed for pre-clinical evaluation.

-- Furthermore, AGI has initiated a pre-clinical programme for AGI-350 which is ongoing. A model of the target condition has been developed and is being employed to characterise AGI-350 and generate key proof of concept data to inform subsequent clinical development. Once this phase of evaluation is completed in H2 2011, AGI will consider the next steps for this programme, which may involve advancing the product into human trials.


---------------------

ps H2 ends 31 Dec so we are very close to news on agi-350 now.

This is from share tip website www.watshot.com 8 days ago (similar to AGI, they tipped MOS at 4p last year):

AGI Therapeutics (AGI) - Trading below net cash

Drug developer AGI Therapeutics is currently valued at £2.6 million, well below its cash pile of $10 million (as at 31st December 2010). The firm concentrates its efforts in the area of specialty indications with unmet medical needs, with particular focus on treatments for conditions which qualify for Orphan Drug status (i.e. those drugs that are applicable for significant competitive advantages such as exclusivity periods, mainly due to the critical nature of the disease). The firm recently identified a promising new lead product candidate, AGI-350, (described as "a novel presentation of an existing marketed drug which AGI will develop to treat a significant unmet medical need in the critical care setting") for which a programme of pre-clinical testing has commenced. "AGI-350 is specifically formulated to allow effective and efficient delivery of the drug directly to the lung to treat a life-threatening, lung-related, condition. There are currently no formulations of the drug available for inhaled delivery, and AGI believes that AGI-350 will represent the first such approved use of the drug to treat the target critical care population." There are currently major changes underway in the pharmaceutical industry, notably the reduction in large pharma R&D budgets, that will see small biotech come under increasing scrutiny, both from the majors and the market in general. Tucking away a few of these might be a very rewarding punt over the next couple of years or so. The cash burn is around $3 million a year so plenty of space for interest to build here.

I just think it is a classic 'under-radar' opportunity.

The results statement from last week included £6million plus cash at bank at 31/12/10, with ongoing low cash burn.

It also noted a new lead candidate for the drug programme as follows (quoting from rns:

New Lead Development Candidate

AGI-350 is a novel presentation of an existing marketed drug which AGI will develop to treat a significant unmet medical need in the critical care setting. AGI-350 is specifically formulated to allow effective and efficient delivery of the drug directly to the lung to treat a life-threatening, lung-related, condition. There are currently no formulations of the drug available for inhaled delivery, and AGI believes that AGI-350 will represent the first such approved use of the drug to treat the target critical care population.

AGI expects that AGI-350 will qualify for Orphan Drug status, which, if granted, should provide seven to ten years exclusivity post approval in key markets. AGI anticipates the pre-clinical development phase, which includes testing in an established disease model, will be completed during H2, 2011. Depending on the outcome of these studies, AGI plans to prepare and file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with a view to commencing a proof of concept clinical trial in patients during H1, 2012.

For commercial and intellectual property reasons, the drug name and target indication cannot be disclosed at this time.

------

On top of all that the Finance Director bought £25,000 of stock on Friday.


So we have cash twice the market cap, a new lead candidate that could be offered Orphan drug status and an FD throwing a serious lump of cash into the business.

At some point I believe this will rerate significantly. imho

AGI Therapeutics, plc

Preliminary financial results for the year ended 31 December 2010

AGI announces new lead programme and provides business update

Enters into development agreement with Aerogen

Dublin, Ireland, 23 March 2011 - AGI Therapeutics, plc ("AGI" or the "Company"), a specialty pharmaceutical company, today reports preliminary financial results for the year ended 31 December 2010, and provides a business update to shareholders.

Financial highlights

-- Cash and short-term deposits at 31 December 2010 of $10.0 million, (2009: $12.0 million)

-- Research and Development (R&D) spend of $1.4 million (2009: $8.3 million)

-- Reduced net loss of $3.6 million (2009: $10.6 million)

-- Loss per ordinary share of 5.3 cents (2009: 15.8 cents)

Operational Summary

In 2010, AGI announced that it would re-focus its research and development efforts in the area of specialty indications with unmet medical needs, with particular focus on treatments for conditions which qualify for Orphan Drug status.

During the year the Company evaluated a number of potential products, both internal and external, which met this criteria. The R&D costs of $1.4 million incurred in 2010 reflect these efforts, which included conducting a number of feasibility studies on potential new pipeline candidates to validate and support further development. Today, as a result of these efforts, AGI is pleased to announce that it has identified a promising new lead product candidate, AGI-350, for which a programme of pre-clinical testing has commenced.

Collaboration with Aerogen

AGI is also pleased to announce today that it has entered into a development agreement with Aerogen Limited, to provide specialised aerosol technology for the administration and delivery of AGI-350 to ventilated patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) setting. This collaboration will involve the customisation of Aerogen's proprietary technology for use with AGI-350 in the target patient population.

Commenting on the results, Dr. John Devane, CEO of AGI, said:

"During 2010 we completed a process of rigorous technical and commercial due diligence and identified a new lead programme and direction for the Company. We are also pleased to enter into a collaboration with Aerogen in support of AGI-350 and we look forward to providing further updates on the progress of this programme during the course of this year".
