TapImmune, Inc. (TPIV.OB) is “One to Watch”

QualityStocks (November 20th, 2009) Writes:

TapImmune, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on developing innovative therapeutics and vaccines in the areas of oncology and infectious disease. The company’s lead product, the TAP vaccine, moves characteristic markers called antigens to the surfaces of cells. Without TAP, there are no cancer markers, making it impossible for the immune system to spot rogue cells and cancerous cells, allowing them to grow undetected.

The company’s vaccine has demonstrated its effectiveness in restoring TAP which in-turn restores and augments the characteristic marker (antigen) and subsequent recognition and killing of cancer cells by the immune system. The TAP molecule also works as an accelerant to enhance targeted vaccines against infectious diseases. For example, including TAP in the studied Smallpox Vaccine showed potency was increased by 100-1,000 times.

TapImmune’s technologies have broad applications in developing therapeutic and preventative vaccines. The company’s technologies have been featured on ABC News BusinessNow, B-TV, in BusinessWeek, Popular

Attacking Cancer With Specific Anti-Tumor Pathways

Stuart Smith (October 20th, 2009) Writes:

BEVERLY, Mass., Oct. 19, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cellceutix Corporation (OTCBB:CTIX) today announced that data recently presented by the Company at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) along with other data developed by the Company indicate that Kevetrin is selectively targeting very specific anti-tumor pathways, such as AKT and p38 MAP kinase. The data presented at the AACR showed that Kevetrin was less cytotoxic than paclitaxel, cisplatin and 5FU while having better anti-tumor activity in two multi-drug resistant lung cancer cell lines. This indicates that Kevetrin is not acting primarily as a cytotoxic agent but may be targeting specific components of the signal transduction pathway, such as AKT and p38 MAP kinase. The Company is continuing to explore other potential targets.

Other data developed by the Company indicate that Kevetrin has potent anti-tumor activity in one cell line (MDA-MB–231) despite only partially inhibiting AKT in that cell line.
