cheers top.....
just poached this from another bb and can I say that these are not my words but looks good to me as I see that it could get some press attention over the weekend...

Ok guys been in here 9 months. The ticker is MEDG, you should have no problem buying it. I never have and have topped up a few times. Always been able to trade on line with Barclays. Perhaps the sudden interest is making it more difficult.

Read the website, this company in my opinion is going to be massive. This will be the first of many partnership agreements. Readabout the guy with anemia who used to inject several times a day and now has not needed an injection for a year.

These products are moving steadily towards commercialisation. The problem was always, whether they had the cash to keep going.

It may take a couple of years but this could be massive.

Today has been the most trades I've ever seen, on one occasion we went 6 weeks without a single trade. I know a lot of you will be day trading this, but for those who decide long term, be patient you could be substantially rewarded.


please make up your own mind on this on the strength of the information provided on the rns .....

MEDGENICS SIGNS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
WITH MAJOR INTERNATIONAL PHARMA COMPANY
Marks first step towards commercialization of Medgenics' Biopump tissue protein
therapy technology
Focus on sustained treatment of Hemophilia


* Feasibility agreement worth up to $7 million (including preclinical development
funding and an option to proceed to commercial agreement)
* Medgenics' first Biopump agreement with a major healthcare corporation
* Uses Biopump in a new application to produce blood clotting Factor VIII
* Deal expected to enhance Medgenics' ongoing efforts towards commercial
agreements for other applications of the Biopump platform technology





Misgav, Israel; London, UK and Vienna, VA, - 23 October 2009 - Medgenics (AIM:
MEDG and MEDU) is pleased to announce that it has signed a preclinical
development and option agreement with a major international biopharmaceutical
company that is a market leader in the field of hemophilia. This groundbreaking
feasibility agreement is worth up to $7 million in payments that will include
funding for preclinical development of Medgenics' Biopump protein technology to
produce and deliver clotting protein Factor VIII for the sustained treatment of
hemophilia.




Under the terms of the agreement, Medgenics will receive $4 million to work
exclusively with this partner for one year to develop a Biopump to test the
feasibility of continuous production and delivery of this clotting protein.
Additional payments totaling $3 million are payable upon Medgenics meeting
certain technical milestones and upon the partner's exercise of an option to
extend the exclusivity through an additional period to negotiate terms to
commercialize the Biopump technology for Factor VIII. This is a new application
of the Biopump tissue protein therapeutic platform, which has previously
demonstrated success in the production of erythropoietin ("EPO") in treating
renal anemia and interferon alpha for use in treating hepatitis-C. The market
for Factor VIII is greater than $3.2 billion per year (La Marie 2008), and
according to the World Federation of Hemophilia, some 400,000 people in the
world have hemophilia.


Dr. Andrew Pearlman, Chief Executive Officer of Medgenics, said:
"We are very excited to have reached this key milestone toward commercialization
of our technology. The fact that this agreement is for a new therapeutic
application of our Biopump demonstrates the versatility of our platform
technology. It further validates the belief that our platform can be applied to
help treat many chronic diseases and will attract further interest from other
major partners.The fact that a market leader in hemophilia has entered such an
agreement at this early stage testifies to the promise of the Biopump technology
for use in treating hemophilia. It reflects our mutual expectation that this
feasibility program will be successful and will lead to a definitive agreement
to complete the development and to commercialize this unique and exciting new
therapeutic option which could make a major difference in the lives of
hemophilic patients."


"Medgenics' Biopump platform technology has already achieved unprecedented
results in the sustained treatment of anemia; the only indication that we have
tested in patients to date. In a Phase I/II clinical study using our EPODURE
Biopumps to produce and deliver EPO in patients with chronic kidney disease, a
single administration of EPODURE Biopumps has been shown to provide effective
anemia treatment for up to 12 months without any need for additional EPO
injections. We believe our Biopump technology will address many of the current
challenges in healthcare and provide an important advance for the treatment of
chronic disease."


"While this first agreement is directed to the treatment of hemophilia,
Medgenics is continuing its discussions with other potential partners with a
view to signing additional agreements for other indications using different
therapeutic proteins."

AIM listed Medgenics has raised £0.265m through a placing of common shares at 6p each. The company, which has developed an alternative to the use of syringes in the medical world, told Sharecast back in August that it had been constrained by limited funds from performing more tests of its revolutionary technology.

The funds will enable the company to stage tests of its Biopump technology as part of the process of gaining regulatory approval in the US, chief executive officer Dr. Andrew Pearlman told Sharecast.

Medgenics has also recently moved significantly ahead in discussions with major pharmaceutical companies and with institutional investment funds.
Advanced discussions are now underway towards potential partnership in the coming months to co-develop a Biopump producing Factor VIII protein for the treatment of hemophilia, a market greater than $3.5b/year (La
Marie 2007). In addition, the Company has recently entered advanced discussions with institutional investors interested in multimillion dollar investment in Medgenics in the coming months. Medgenics is also in active due
diligence with an Asian biopharma company that has conveyed its written interest in a combined investment in the Company and licensing agreement for collaboration in certain Biopump applications in selected Asian
markets to be agreed. The Board is also pleased by recent serious interest by companies in other new applications of the Biopump platform, and believes that such interest demonstrates the attractiveness of the
Biopump platform for strategic partners.
The Directors believe that these discussions could lead to concrete steps in the coming months.

Medgenics, Inc.
('Medgenics' or the 'Company')
PATIENT NEARING UNPRECEDENTED 11 MONTHS OF ANEMIA RELIEF IN CLINICAL TRIAL FROM
SINGLE TREATMENT OF BIOPUMP TISSUE TECHNOLOGY
NEWS FOLLOWS SIGNIFICANT INTEREST OF STRATEGIC PARTNER FOR NEW APPLICATION
* EPODURE patient approaching 11 months continuous anemia relief from single
treatment, and reaching one year anniversary without any injections of EPO;
* Significant new interest from major pharmaceutical companies to develop a
Biopump for new applications;
* Serious new interest from institutional investors; and
* Medgenics awarded $1.3 million Israeli government grant.

August 27, 2009 - Medgenics (AIM:MEDG, MEDU) is pleased to announce that one of
the patients, who was treated with the Company's EPODURE tissue Biopumps almost
11 months ago, continues to be effectively treated for anemia without a single
erythropoietin (EPO) injection. This patient (#2) was dependent on frequent
injections of the therapeutic protein (EPO) for the 18 months prior to
receiving a single administration of 3 tiny EPODURE tissue Biopumps in the
Company's phase I/II anemia trial in Israel. He has now gone a full year since
his last EPO injection, while his hemoglobin level has been continuously
maintained within the target range of 10-12 g/dl for this period. By contrast,
conventional anemia treatment by EPO injections must be repeated up to 3 times
every week to provide sustained treatment. To the best of the Directors'
knowledge, nothing approaching EPODURE'S length of sustained anemia relief in
patients has been shown from a single treatment of any other kind.


The patient (#2), stated:
"For me the treatment has been and continues to be successful, without
complications or discomfort. At 72 years old, I continue to do physical work in
the citrus groves several hours a day, but unlike in the previous year, I have
not needed injections. The treatment has improved my quality of life."

Medgenics' unique tissue-based EPODURE Biopump platform technology is
proving to be effective in maintaining hemoglobin levels within the target range
for many months in most of the patients treated so far, even at lowest dose of
treatment, according to internationally renowned nephrologist, Dr. Anatole
Besarab, who is a member of Medgenics' Scientific Advisory Board.The Company
plans to present the study findings at the upcoming American Society of
Nephrology meeting in October.

Dr. Besarab has said:
"With a patient now nearing 12 months without EPO injections and others for more
than 6 months, it is becoming clearer that the EPODURE Biopump is able to
produce sufficient erythropoietin to effectively elevate and then sustain
hemoglobin levels in patients with sufficient administered dose.I am not aware
of any other technology that can achieve such prolonged and sustained therapy
from a single treatment. Additional studies are needed in a broader range of
patients, and we look forward to them to further confirm these very positive
results."



Medgenics has also recently moved significantly ahead in discussions with major
pharmaceutical companies and with institutional investment funds.
Advanced discussions are now underway towards potential partnership in the
coming months to co-develop a Biopump producing Factor VIII protein for the
treatment of hemophilia, a market greater than $3.5b/year (La Marie 2007). In
addition, the Company has recently entered advanced discussions with
institutional investors interested in multimillion dollar investment in
Medgenics in the coming months. Medgenics is also in active due diligence with
an Asian biopharma company that has conveyed its written interest in a
combined investment in the Company and licensing agreement for
collaboration in certain Biopump applications in selected Asian markets to be
agreed. The Board is also pleased by recent serious interest by companies in
other new applications of the Biopump platform, and believes that such
interest demonstrates the attractiveness of the Biopump platform for strategic
partners.
The Directors believe that these discussions could lead to concrete steps in the
coming months.
In addition to the closing and commitment of additional funds announced last
week, which brought the total to $520,000, Medgenics notes that it was awarded a
government grant in Q2/09 of $1.3 million from the Office of the Chief Scientist
(OCS) at the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor of Israel. These funds will
be received as government participation in approved R & D expenses incurred
during the period April 2009 to March 2010. The OCS awards grants to industry in
Israel to advance technological innovations. This is the fourth consecutive year
that Medgenics has received this respected grant.
Dr. Andrew Pearlman, CEO of Medgenics said
"We are excited that we have a patient who is now reaching a full year of
effective anemia treatment without any EPO injections and with only a single
treatment of EPODURE. In this period a typical patient in the U.S. being treated
per the FDA guidelines for EPO administration would receive up to
150 injections. Month by month we have drawn growing encouragement from the
continuing positive results of the Biopump anemia study. We are pleased by the
significant progress with potential partners and institutional investors which
gives us great hope that this will yield concrete results in the coming months.
Meanwhile, the Company continues its focused efforts to raise several million
US$ in the coming months to enable it to continue and expand the clinical trial
and our other operations and to realize the potential of the great opportunities
it now has."
The Company would also like to clarify that, further to the announcement made on
20 August 2009, included within the $55,000 debenture investment by
"shareholders who are physicians with expertise in the clinical field addressed
by Medgenics' lead product, EPODURE" was an investment of US $5,000 from Stephen
McMurray, a director of the Company.
