Is that not just the same work that we already knew about. I see an October date in there?

Rivaldo , thanks for pointing this out.

Excellent confirmatory news, Rivaldo.

Wow great find riv, so that should be an RNS again tomorrow. Been a busy week in the ORPH offices. That RNS clerk must be off furlough

So does that suggest £12m each for the 3 challenge studies, given the £10m for the characterisation study, or is there an option on a further slot, subject to availability, for which they haven't paid a reservation fee?

Interesting that the duration is given as 4 years - is that to allow for long-term follow-up or are they allowing for significant delay somewhere along the line?

Great find. Excellent!!

Hvivo and a £46m contract from Business Energy & Industrial Strategy just gone up on Bidstats?

[marvelman] 21/1/2021 16:16

I doubt anyone here will want to correct you Ross as most are of the same opinion as you have stated.

[mark10101] 21/1/2021 16:16

Ross, exactly, when they tempt you with a decent bid price there are never any available. Take just now, they have dropped the price but I tried all the way down to £1k worth and they would not let me have any. Alway a good sign.

[ross k] 21/1/2021 16:07

Let's be honest and realistic here while we have the expertise of John Henry on board. If this does drip further because of the selling pressure, what really is the target before we bounce, 22 is a solid support, it dips below 22 for a brief period while it's impossible to purchase in any decent amount, so you want to risk selling now to try and get back in at around 21 or even 20, not worth it IMO if your here for the long investment.

[marvelman] 21/1/2021 16:02

Well I won't deny it has not crossed my mind to sell down a few while this death spiral continues unabated but but only for a fleeting moment. An RNS could come any day now although I do hope it is not accompanied by one of CF's warnings about the share price getting ahead of itself :-))

[c0lin1] 21/1/2021 15:57

whats your buy target john?

[john henry] 21/1/2021 15:45

Cantors also pushing down only need PEEL and the main 3 MMs are all trying to shift stock.

Job Function: Biomedical Scientist graduate. Pounds 11.00 phCrazy pay. London living wage Pounds 10.75 phI am very positive on Open Orphan, just very surprising to me. I feel sorry for young people. Not easy.

JBER still trying to shift Invesco stock and find buyers, Offer being pushed down

Thankless task at the Mo as theres simply no volume buyers.

[lako42] 21/1/2021 13:43

The current employment market suggests they won't struggle at all but another opportunity to take a negative stance.

[m5] 21/1/2021 13:37

Totally agree.

[ross k] 21/1/2021 13:37

Now that's exactly my thinking also

[pogue] 21/1/2021 13:29

£8.72 an hour if over 25 is min wage, £8.20 21 to 24, however for a graduate a job for 6 months in an area they are actually qualified in is worth its weight in gold for the CV better than putting down MacDonalds burger flipper or Tesco shelf stacker. Who knows some off them maybe kept on for a proper job.

[judijudi] 21/1/2021 13:19

Doubt they will fill those vacancy’s at that hourly rate for London

And shows CF is keeping a lid on costs :-)

[m5] 21/1/2021 12:53

Must admit I don't care either. Don't want it, don't take it. Plenty of people on less than that anyway.
