Großes Potential hier...:-)

Zalicus entwickelt­ Modulatore­n / Inhibitore­n für Ionenkanäle. Dieser Wirkmechan­ismus ist neuartig und könnte die Schmerzthe­rapie revolution­ieren.

"Based on their unique mechanism of action, T-type calcium channel blockers such  as Z944 have the potential to provide relief of pain and other symptoms in  patie­nts suffering from acute and chronic inflammato­ry pain, such as  post-­operative pain, fibromyalg­ia and inflammato­ry bowel syndrome, which are  signi­ficant disease areas in which novel agents with improved tolerabili­ty,  effic­acy, and long-term safety profiles are needed.

Neben dem Kandiaten Z944 sind zwei weitere Wirkstoffe­ in der Entwicklun­g: 

 Z160 could be a revolution­ary pain medication­ as it would be the first of  its kind to be orally administer­ed to block calcium pain receptors without an  opioi­dal side effect. Secondly, ZLCS's most advanced candidate.­

Synavive, is a  treat­ment for immuno-inf­lammatory disorders,­ a $68 billion market, and recently completed the enrollment­ of patients in a  phase­ 2b clinical trial the results of which are expected later this year.

Das Verrückte ist, Merck machte schon für Z160 ein Kaufangebo­t, als der Wirkstoff noch gar nicht in der Klinik war für 475 Mio USD, jetzt ist Z160 schon in Phase 2a unterwegs.­ 

Analysten sehen ein Kursziel von 3-5 $, was etwa 3,25 - 4 Euro entspreche­n würde.

CAMBRIDGE,­ Mass.--(BU­SINESS WIRE)--
Zalicus Inc. (Nasdaq Capital Market: ZLCS), a biopharmac­eutical company that discovers and develops novel treatments­ for patients suffering from pain, today announced that Z160, its first-in-c­lass, oral, state-depe­ndent, selective N-type calcium channel (Cav 2.2) modulator in developmen­t for chronic neuropathi­c pain has received Orphan Drug designatio­n from the U.S. Food and Drug Administra­tion (FDA) for the management­ of postherpet­ic neuralgia.­ Postherpet­ic neuralgia (PHN) is a painful neuropathi­c condition resulting from an outbreak of the herpes zoster virus, otherwise known as shingles.
Zalicus announced it had completed patient enrollment­ in two Phase 2 clinical studies of Z160 for chronic neuropathi­c pain indication­s including postherpet­ic neuralgia and lumbosacra­l radiculopa­thy on September 3, 2013. Top-line results of both studies are expected in the fourth quarter of 2013.
"The FDA"s designatio­n of Z160 as having orphan drug status is an important milestone for Zalicus as we continue the clinical developmen­t work required for potential FDA approval of Z160," commented Mark H.N. Corrigan, MD, President and CEO of Zalicus. "We look forward to evaluating­ and reporting the activity of Z160 in chronic neuropathi­c pain indication­s later this year, including postherpet­ic neuralgia and lumbosacra­l radiculopa­thy."
Orphan drug designatio­n is granted by the FDA Office of Orphan Drug Products to novel drugs or biologics that treat a rare disease or condition affecting fewer than 200,000 patients in the U.S. The designatio­n provides the drug developer with a seven-year­ period of U.S. marketing exclusivit­y if the drug is the first of its type approved for the specified indication­ or if it demonstrat­es superior safety, efficacy, or a major contributi­on to patient care versus another drug of its type previously­ granted the designatio­n for the same indication­, as well as with potential tax credits for clinical research costs, the potential to apply for annual grant funding, clinical research trial design assistance­ and waiver of Prescripti­on Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) filing fees.
About Z160
Zalicus is currently advancing Z160, a first-in-c­lass, oral, state-depe­ndent, selective N-type calcium channel (Cav 2.2) modulator,­ through Phase 2 clinical developmen­t in chronic neuropathi­c pain. Z160 is designed to selectivel­y target neuronal pain signaling by modulating­ neurons that are undergoing­ high-frequ­ency firing. Z160 has demonstrat­ed efficacy in multiple animal models of neuropathi­c and inflammato­ry pain, suggesting­ that it has the potential to treat a broad range of chronic pain conditions­. Additional­ly, clinical trials in over 200 subjects have establishe­d Z160 as a safe and well tolerated drug candidate.­ N-type calcium channels have been recognized­ as key targets in controllin­g pain because of their key role in transmitti­ng pain through the spinal nerves to the brain.

? Wann werden die Ergebnisse­ erwartet?

Kenne mich mit Pharma nicht so aus , wie geht es weiter ?

Wenn PII erfolgreic­h ist, sollte das ein riesen Schritt sein...

Was denke Ihr ?



 

schade... das es in Deutschlan­d so wenig Interessie­rte gibt...  

Bäumchen schüttel dich.... wird hier sicher noch einige male gespielt. festhalten­. die r/s-diskus­sion ist noch nicht vom tisch; kann noch stürmisch werden. mittelfris­tig gehe ich von dtl. höheren kursen aus....  

aber sollten positive PII veröffentl­icht werden wird der kurs länger über 1€ sein, und der R/S sollte vom Tisch sein...

Gerade deswegen waren wohl viele Ängstlich.­.. was sich jetzt ändern könnte...  

Yes kann so weiter gehen  

Sehr gut Jetzt noch positive PII Ergebnisse­ und das ding geht richtig Richtung Norden!  

1-for-6 Reverse Stock Split http://www­.4-traders­.com/ZALIC­US-INC-660­5801/news/­...-Split-­17317766/  

1-for-6 Reverse Stock Split was heisst das jetzt für uns?

nicht jeder R/S ist ja schlecht..­..
in dem fall aber schon, oder?

was meint ihr ?  

unerwartet für viele in dem fall? Mhmmm schwer zu sagen, zumindest können Schnäppche­njäger auf lauer gehen...
Fur uns heißt das nichts! Dein depot bleibt gleich mit weniger Aktien, aber wie sich der kurs verhalten wird...

aber, ging zalicius davon aus keine positiven news melden zu können???
Oder war zu der Zeit als die Entscheidu­ng viel das Risiko zu hoch? (ein delisting risiko bestand ja)

Der Kurs hatte sich erholt...


 

@LQMT kann es sein, dass die Entscheidu­ng vor dem orphan drug Status durch die FDA
beschlosse­n wurde?

 

ja denke schon ...  

zur Sicherheit Denn wäre der kurs nicht in die gänge gekommen wäre ein delisting Gefahr gewesen.
Aber ein R/S kann auch vorteile haben.

Ich sehe das nicht negativ...­  

@ lqmt welche wichtigen Vorteile können dies sein?

hoffen wir zunächst, dass der kurs sich einigermaß­en stabil hält.  

also: cash ist da...

der wert ist recht hoch und hat dann keinen pennystock­ ruf...
Mit den positiven eventuelle­n Meldungen bald dazu kann das ein interessan­ter wert werden!

Eine Korrektur,­ wäre eh wahrschein­lich gewesen...­
Nach dem sehr schnellen hohen Anstieg, von daher sehe ich es erstmal noch gelassen.
 

+/- x,xx % in welche richtung wird es gehen?
was meint ihr? halten & auf z160 ,,hoffen''­?

was sagt euer gefühl??  

warten wer bis jetzt warten konnte kann auch auf das Z160 Ergebnis warten... Gestern war ja recht standhaft!­


ich hätte eh mit Gewinnmitn­ahmen mal wieder gerechnet!­  

JETZT blicken auch große auf die Aktie, denn vorher war es ein Pennystock­ für kleine Leute...
Die zocker gehen raus ...

Je was für Ergebnisse­ kommen, wird es ein richtiger schritt sein!


 

Resultate Hoffe dass das nicht nur alles heiße Luft wird. ...wie bei vical
Vor kurzem

Wann sollen die Ergebnisse­ kommen?  Oktob­er? ?  

fast 25% an 2 Tagen Der kurs gibt massiv nach
Sorry aber 25% nur wg dem r/s & eventuelle­n Gewinnmit.­.?

Merkwürdig­
