95% knockdown of Hepatitus B, very impressive.

As you can see, it crashed hard, but it is very expensive to research gene therapy in medicine, but when a breakthrough ccurs, it occurs in a very big way.

This company is going on my "watch" list and "alert" list.

Like ALKS pending drug for making people crave alcohol much less, this will be in BIG demand if approved by the FDA as Hepatitis affects MILLIONS of people worldwide, just like alcoholism...

I wonder if it will hold up after the profit takers take their share.

There you go my friend, ask and you shall receive.

I myself am eyeing ALKS, why? Alcoholism has affected myself and my family for generations, it is also WORLDWIDE. This new drug, if approved by the FDA (passed stage 2 clinical trials) will raise the stock 100 percent, I know for a fact VA wants it, and the military and some state agencies want it. It's much more effective to give a person a shot than to make them get an interlock device or go to AA all day and then they cannot hold down a decent job due to court orders.

Many vets and soldiers turn to alcohol because it is a depressant for one, and also is legal, but the health ramifications are KILLER, not to mention the health care costs. Eliminate the preference for alcohol, then VA can zero in on the Sarin crap and PTSD and find better treatments.

I suggest anyone who drinks a lot look at Micky Mantle's life, in the end he was like my stepdad, they both said "Fluck it, it wasn't worth all those lost years, not to mention the health decline."

If I recall correctly, you were hitting it at it's Zenith before one campus got busted, which is nothing nowadays, but you know how those wall street anals are. Congrats on raking it it in and the multiple splits.
