Scancell Share Discussion Threads

The excitement on the MFF seems to have faded fast.

Thanks Bermuda.

RuckRover,

As previously mentioned, Ketruda was originally approved at a dose of 2mg per kg of body weight. Later trials were carried out at a fixed dose of 200mg regardless of body weight allowing in depth analysis of PK data for both doses.

The outcome was that the fixed and weight based doses gave very similar exposure and clearance - even at higher/lower weights:-

'Doses of 200 mg and 2 mg/kg provide similar exposure distributions with no advantage to either dosing approach with respect to controlling PK variability. These findings suggest that weight-based and fixed-dose regimens are appropriate for pembrolizumab.'

'All patients, including high-weight patients, achieve exposures in the range which has been demonstrated in clinical dose-ranging trials to provide near maximal efficacy. Exposures which match or exceed those at 2 mg/kg also ensure that maximal target engagement is achieved'

So both are adult doses and they're virtually identical when it comes to how the drug performs in the body so either will be absolutely fine in the SCIB1 trial. I assume they'd use the 200mg fixed dose as that is the standard commercial dose but no big deal either way.

Thats the village idiot sent packing again.
Not sure why he even bothers to post over here.

[tosh123] 29/4/2019 14:35

Gazza,
it sure was a low risk, but having traded this share for over 7 years, i would have hated to miss out on something positive, no matter how unlikely that may have been.

He absolutely has no idea what point he's trying to make, the guy is a buffoon.

[gazza] 29/4/2019 14:24

Tosh,

"so i really dont see what you think your point is ?"

I don't think he does either!

[gazza] 29/4/2019 14:23

"""" the risk of something happening whilst i had no shares,""""

As we have had no incidents of "something happening" in the past 4 years (apart from steady share price decline), I would suggest this is one of the lower of the many risks.

[tosh123] 29/4/2019 14:20

ineptico... ????? You keep repeating this, your point is what exactly ?
You dont make any sense, trying to make a point that doesn't exist.

As a long term shareholder, and having recouped my initial investment, why wouldn't i want to retain some " free shares " to see whether the company could eventually do what they hadn't managed to do over the last 7 years ? .... What point is it that you THINK you're making ?

This is a lottery, so you need tickets, the important thing is, how much did your tickets cost you.... Yours are probably the most expensive out there... so i really dont see what you think your point is ?

[inanaco] 29/4/2019 14:02

The Risk of being out of Scancell .........

?

"""" the risk of something happening whilst i had no shares,""""

Tosh April 2018 / 2019 ..

LOL

[tosh123] 29/4/2019 13:45

Its time for you to permanently slither back under your rock.

[tosh123] 29/4/2019 13:16

And the village idiot returns.... One would have thought that he had taken enough hammerings.... But like the proverbial headless chicken, still he runs around not knowing what he's doing.

[inanaco] 29/4/2019 13:00

Tosh does not agree with you Loz

another Tosh Classic

""""I was tempted to sell more in the early teens, but my average is so low, it wasn't worth the risk of something happening whilst i had no shares, so a ballsy shout on your behalf, congratulations."""

Thanks Bs - with relatively little progress in well over a year & in what would have been the largest trial of any Scancell product to date, I'm disappointed in the lack of progress there. Yes the SCIB1 combo trial is slated to start this quarter but I'm not convinced the trial numbers even if successful would be sufficient to attract a deal.

The SCIB2 (Immunobody+) trial with a larger cohort & with a prioritised evaluation of the nano-vesicle tech would imho have allowed CRUK to press ahead.

Lets hope that the new recruits free up a sizeable portion of Lindy's Scancell time.

[bermudashorts] 28/4/2019 19:35

gooosed,

Yes would be good to get some clarity from Scancell. CH did said in the Q&A session of the Proactive event that it will be an off the shelf nano-vesicle delivery system and that CRUK will need to independently license it. My understanding is that Scancell's role is in evaluating different systems, I assume based on preclinical testing in the lab to compare performance. Then I guess they'll make a recommendation to CRUK.

[gazza] 28/4/2019 17:54

That's a very good question gooosed.

[gooosed] 28/4/2019 13:18

Scancell have previously confirmed what funds would be used for.

In the case of SCIB2 when they confirmed the development collaboration with cancer Research UK :

"Under the terms of the Clinical Development Partnership, Cancer Research UK will fund and sponsor a UK-based Phase 1/2 clinical trial of SCIB2 in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor in patients with solid tumours, focusing on NSCLC in the first instance. The charity's Centre for Drug Development (CDD) will be responsible for manufacturing the clinical trial supplies of SCIB2, conducting pre-clinical testing, sponsoring and managing the clinical trial, including the clinical trial timelines."




Months later it was confirmed that a cash raise was to be used in part to :

"Support the Cancer Research UK ("CRUK") development of SCIB2 for non-small-cell lung carcinoma ("NSCLC");"




CRUK confirmed slow progress being made merely advancing from Due Diligence to Exploratory in a 15 month period.




The latest update confirms that nano delivery system to be used still not sorted - so who's responsible ? Scancell or CRUK ?

[bermudashorts] 27/4/2019 12:24

Wild,

Of course email Scancell but the point is that 2mg per kg is an adult dose too, it's the equivalent of the 200mg fixed dose. It's not specifically a paediatric dose, they have simply retained the per kg weight dosing for children as obviously a fixed adult dose would equate to a much higher dose.

[bermudashorts] 27/4/2019 10:10

Wild,

Not sure whether you read advfn but if so hope you're well. Regarding dosing levels of Keytruda in the SCIB1 trial, when Keytruda was first approved by the FDA, the recommended dose was 2mg per kg of weight. This was changed to a fixed dose of 200mg regardless of weight in 2017 as pharmacokinetics data showed very little difference between the 2. So I don't think it's using a lower paediatric dose, just that Scancell have been using that slide for a long time and haven't updated it!!

As far as I know Keytruda has been approved for paediatric use in a couple of cancers and for those they seem to have retained the weight based dose of 2mg per kg (makes sense) but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been approved for melanoma .

[the real lozan] 26/4/2019 10:19

Yesterday provided ...More questions than answers -
'Questions' *WE ALL* might ask ourselves, like -
Did inane'n'co "retire", so HE could devote more time to the BUY,BUY,BUY SCAM ???
Since HE awarded HIMSELF a PHD, Does HE refer to HIMSELF as *Doctor* or *Professor*???
Does HE wear 'A white coat' {The one HE got off the icecream van} whilst posting ???
Why CAN't such an 'educated ex purt' get anything RIGHT ???
If Trump visits UK, will Donald ask to meet HIM [along with other top politico's}???
OR
Is inane'n'co just the 'prawn' { underwater Crawler} *WE ALL* think HE is ???

[gazza] 25/4/2019 22:25

Goy,I didn't realise Onan had so many ids!

[goyathlay] 25/4/2019 18:51

LSE warriors need to post on here:





This was created (tongue-in-cheek, I might add) in the bad old GKP days. It makes a quite amusing read.

[gazza] 25/4/2019 18:40

Bermuda, The 21p was for the first 5 targets. The SCIB1 value by TD was 4p. I calculated an share price of 68p by 2026 (launch) (SCIB1)The NPV calculation at 12.5% discount equates to 27p today.
