Apropos to our post yesterday on upcoming medical conferences, we wanted to begin with some coverage of the European Cancer Congress 2013 (ECCO-ESMO). This conference takes place Friday, September 27th thru Tuesday, October 1st. Below we have some of the datasets and updates we are looking forward to seeing. ESMO planners also put out their, […]
Upcoming Fall medical conferences
With Fall approaching quickly, we head into one of the busier periods of medical conference presentations. In the next month, we have several widely followed conferences approaching and abstract releases for a number of others. Below are some of the key conferences that we will be tracking with some analysis to follow in subsequent articles. […]
September 18- EOD
It was Fed day today, so the market was very macro driven in terms of price action. The Bernank doubled down on easing, which was a good macro environment. That being said biotechs were more mixed. I am actually starting to look at biopharma as more QE will likely lead to yield chasing. There were […]

September 17- EOD
Not a lot of stock specific news but some interesting larger biotech developments. The market held up better than I thought given yesterday’s close and biotechs seemed like slight underperformers but not to the same degree as yesterday. That being said I think the CLVS news seemed to bring in some buyers, so they ended […]
July 2- EOD–> Midday edition
I wanted to follow up on the discussion of yesterday less with an analysis of the potential dance partners for ONXX but more in terms of where do we go from here. Obviously the speculation in mid and small caps space is who will be next. This list could encompass just about every company but […]
Impressions from ASCO 2013 Days 3 and 4
Having survived ASCO 2013, we wanted to review some of the main data from Days 3 and 4. After a very long first 2 sessions, Day 3 and 4 were less data heavy, however, the outcomes from some of these had a dramatic effect for some (like CLVS, INFI, TSRO and SNTA). PD1’s belle of […]
June 3- EOD
Happy mid-ASCO (although most of the data is already presented). Some interesting ASCO and, surprisingly, non-ASCO stories. 1. I added to my SGEN position today (at $33.67). It has been under pressure recently and I’ve been looking to add over the summer in anticipation of HL data at ASH. I am intimately aware of the […]
Preview of ASCO2013 Take One
With the 2013 annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) rapidly approaching, we want to take the time to present our highlights of the meeting. This is one of the largest medical meetings investors focus upon in the biotech and healthcare sectors. Before we get into this, we do have some overarching […]
Notes from JP Morgan Healthcare Conference (Monday/Tuesday session)
As we go into the 3rd day of the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference, we wanted to provide some highlights and notes from the first 2 sessions. I tried to keep them as concise as possible. Day 1 Clearly, Celgene Corp.(NASDAQ: CELG) came firing out of the gates by announcing strong financial guidance. This included in-line […]
A few recent biotech IPO’s
There have been a few recent IPOs from biotech companies that we want to briefly highlight. Some have upcoming data or regulatory decisions that we will be adding to the database shortly. (1) Hyperion Therapeutics (NASDAQ: HPTX), a biotech focused on the treatment of urea cycle disorders and hepatic encephalopathy. Hyperion plans to raise $50 […]
