Default Tovaxin News!
Press release today regarding Tovaxin. We've all been dosed! All 150 of us! Yeah!!!

Quote:
David McWilliams, president and chief executive officer of Opexa Therapeutics, stated, "I am pleased by the steady progress of the trial and the recommendation of the DSMB. We have delivered all Tovaxin doses to patients in the study and now look forward to presenting 52-week topline results of the TERMS Phase IIb study in September. McWilliams continued, “with this report, we are aggressively moving forward with our regulatory plans and furthering our discussion with potential strategic development partners."

Oh Cheryl,

I'm so very excited for you.....Yay!!

. .


I was one of the statistics in the first trials of Interferon......way back then.....it IS a darn good feeling to know that you were one of those that will (or in my case would) one day make a difference.

Cheryl -

That is great! That project looks quite promising - though I find myself wondering what the definition is of early stage MS.

Taffy -

You made me laugh...and smile...and considering I've eaten all of my girl scout cookies - I didn't think that would happen tonight!
