Ann: Imugene Licenses Allogeneic CD19 CAR T Cell Therapy, page-280

I am tipping that the manufacturing plant was sourced in the USA for a number of reasons ... access to USA government funding could be one of those reasons through a number of programs ..... surely taking over a USA manufacturing plant; being partnered with City of Hope Medical Centre; and having Yuman Fong on the team will help open these doors for additional government support / funding, especially if IMU can successfully develop a cancer vaccine ?


While the timing and pricing of the CR sucks, I think people need to look past that and see what the deal in its entirety will / could do for IMU and I will re-iterate what I said yesterday - why would IMU be touting how they "remain incredibly eager to bring the results of this trial to our shareholders, patients and the wider public." if bad news was on the horizon like some naysayers on here are claiming ?

NATIONAL CANCER MOONSHOT INITIATIVE


Even before the announcement of the National Cancer Moonshot Initiative, the AACR provided thought leadership to the White House on the current state of cancer research, on ways to make more therapies available to more patients, and on the importance of cancer prevention and detection. Since the launch of Vice President Joe Biden’s “national commitment to end cancer as we know it,” AACR members and leaders have worked to shape and realize the vice president’s vision.
