IPA.V - ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd

Je me demandais pourquoi Philippe restait encore sur les lignes de côté avec IPA… Faut croire que tu avais raison! Je suis un peu en t… ce matin!

Ce n’est que de la volatilité. L’effet d’annonce avec Pfizer est puissante assurément mais leur chiffre sont statistiquement trop petits. Par ailleurs la protection va durer combien de temps? Qu’en est-il des mutations? Bref encourageant nous sommes sur la bonne piste :slight_smile:

Volatilité quand même énorme… Je me demande même si le RB de 5 pour 1 va tenir le coup

Même si on est encore très loin de la fin de cette histoire, faut au moins se consoler en se disant que si la Covid n’avait pas eu lieu, on serait probablement encore autour 0.70$ - 0.90$ avec un financement pas trop loin devant (ou derrière)!

Là, la compagnie a les coffres pleins pour faire pratiquement ce qu’elle veut, ou presque.

Ce serait bien de voir le management acheter sur le open market, mais bon.

L’expérience. À votre défense j’ai passez à deux doigts d’investir à 0.80$ et je ne l’ai pas fait ce qui m’a privé de beaux gains.

Si j’avais été actionnaire, j’aurais pris des profits pendant la hausse du titre et réduit un peu après que le petit support à 2.50$ se soit brisé.

Ce matin, j’aurais réduit considérablement ma position à l’open dans l’espoir de racheter plus bas.

Techniquement 1.25-1.40$ est un très bon plancher et aussi très attrayant avec l’encaisse importante + le flush des momo traders.

1.25$ is the new 0.80$ - beau ratio risque/rendement à ce niveau.

Une preuve supplémentaire que le possible vaccin de Pfizer ne réussira pas à arrêter la pandémie à lui seul

IPA a toujours dit qu’ils ne seraient les premiers pour un vaccin. Le vaccin de Pfizer est efficace à 95%… par contre e transport du vaccin et la conservation sera un énorme défi.

Est-ce que les tests ont été effectués sur des personnes qui ont contracté la COVID-19 lors de la première vague?

Quel sera l’efficacité de ce vaccin sur des patients qui auront une mutation de la COVID-19?

Ces résultats sont encourageants et nous permettre de croire que nous pourrons “bientôt” revenir à une vie normale. Par contre, nous en savons encore très peu sur la COVID-19.

Et comme tu l’as dit, IPA n’est pas seulement un covid stock. Il faut se rappeler que IA avait un price target de 3$ cet été en ne tenant compte que de la portion CRO de Ipa.

@pbergeronbelanger Au train ou vont les choses j’ai l’impression que le RS contribuera sous peu à ton nouveau plancher « 1.25$ is the new 0.80$ - beau ratio risque/rendement à ce niveau. », à moins que la transition sur le NASDAQ se fasse sous peu. La pression de déclaration des pertes de fin d’année vont aussi jouer sur le cours actuel de +/- 1,60$.

ImmunoPrecise and Genmab Enter into a Technology Partnership Targeting Infectious Disease

IPA Selects Polytope™ Formulations for Pre-Clinical Studies

VICTORIA, BC, Nov. 23, 2020 /CNW/ - IMMUNOPRECISE ANTIBODIES LTD. (the « Company » or « IPA ») (TSX VENTURE: IPA) (OTCQB: IPATF) (FSE: TQB2), a leader in full-service, therapeutic antibody discovery and development, today announced that it has selected more than ten, unique monoclonal antibodies for further preclinical development.

ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd. Logo (CNW Group/ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd.)

The Polytope™ antibodies can be combined to create up to twelve unique cocktail therapies containing mixtures of two, three or four antibodies, each of which has been shown to work synergistically to prevent viral entry into cells in vitro . The Company announced today that it has nominated the first cocktail consisting of four, human, synergistic antibodies to enter pre-clinical testing. The upcoming pre-clinical trial will examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of the proposed therapeutic cocktail in the well-defined, SARS-CoV-2, Syrian hamster model.

« We are excited to reach this milestone in what has been a very comprehensive Covid-19 therapeutic study aimed at treating disease caused by all Coronavirus variants, not to be thwarted by the ongoing mutations of the rapidly circulating virus », said ImmunoPrecise CEO, Dr. Jennifer Bath. « Our scientific team chose a path of rigorous investigation to arrive at a diverse set of functional and meaningful candidates to combine into what we believe will be an effective therapy against both current and future strains of SARS-CoV-2. We did not sacrifice quality and we believe our approach is the suitable and effectual path. »

Antibodies not only cure diseased individuals, they may provide immediate protection with a single injection to exposed individuals or asymptomatic carriers, something a vaccine cannot do, enabling containment of new outbreaks. ImmunoPrecise’s Polytope therapy was designed to provide additional potential benefits as a means of long-term weaponry, a cocktail therapy designed with the goal of protecting against disease that could potentially be caused by novel mutations of the virus not covered by current vaccines and therapies.

The Company believes their approach using a well-characterized, monoclonal antibody cocktail to treat Covid-19 patients has high potential for fighting not only the most prevalent strains of SARS-CoV-2, but also the many alternate forms circulating today, as well as potential new variants of the virus in the future.

IPA’s curated antibody mixtures or « cocktails » have been shown to bind to multiple regions of the spike protein of the virus, including novel variations of the virus, caused by mutations, that have been identified and published in literature. The Company’s antibodies provide a clear boost in neutralization potency beyond what can be achieved with individual monoclonal antibodies alone, suggesting a synergy that may allow for lower dosing. Furthermore, engaging multiple antibodies in the fight against the virus has the potential to stimulate different mechanisms from the immune response to help clear infection, thereby enhancing overall clearance of the virus and aiding in recovery.

« Antibody cocktails that achieve full neutralization are advantageous over monotherapies because a single antibody is vulnerable to being escaped by even one mutation in the virus, depending on where that mutation occurs », states Dr. Yasmina Abdiche, CSO of ImmunoPrecise. « In contrast, our cocktail engages multiple antibodies at once, broadening what we refer to as the « epitope footprint », or the regions on the virus where the antibodies bind. This provides insurance that the mutating virus cannot evade the treatment, which is a continuous threat as pathogens evolve », added Dr. Abdiche.

The Companies antibody cocktails were designed specifically with the intent to address the high mutation rates found in RNA viruses (such as SARS-CoV-2), which mutate up to a million times faster than human DNA—and which have the possibility of correlating with an increased ability to cause disease. These higher mutation rates increase the chance of introducing traits which are considered advantageous to the virus.

« In fact, as anticipated, there are hundreds of documented mutations in the binding domain of the virus’ spike protein, which also happens to be the region most companies are targeting. A few of these mutations are now emerging as significant », stated Dr. Ilse Roodink, IPA’s Coronavirus global Program Lead. « This creates a ‹ moving target situation ›, underpinning the importance of deploying numerous antibodies to attack the virus in concert, and building insurance into our cocktail therapy that it will remain effective as the virus continues to evolve ».

Pre-clinical manufacturing of the fully human lead, 4-mAb candidates is underway, with the pre-clinical studies scheduled to launch in early January in the Netherlands. The Company is also producing pre-clinical batches of additional, validated candidates to provide a panel of alternate options to modify the coverage of therapeutic cocktails if ever needed, to continue to combat future and/or seasonal variants of the virus.
