BeaconEquity.com Issues TraderNotes Biotechnology Stocks: TPIM, RXII, VION, CUR, AMGN, GILD, BIIB, GENR

Today’s TraderNotes include: TapImmune Inc. (OTCBB: TPIM), RXi Pharmaceuticals Corp. (Nasdaq: RXII), Vion Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: VION), Neuralstem Inc. (AMEX: CUR), Amgen Inc. (Nasdaq: AMGN), Gilead Sciences Inc. (Nasdaq: GILD), Biogen Idec Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB) and Genaera Corp. (Nasdaq: GENR)

TapImmune Inc. (TPIM) shares climbed nearly 39 percent to 43 cents in Monday’s mid-morning trading, following news that an article in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology confirmed the company’s TAP (Transporters Associated with Antigen Processing) vaccine should be considered as a candidate for the treatment of Melanoma.

The company's lead product, the TAP vaccine, performs a key step in moving characteristic cancer markers, known as antigens, to the surface of cells.  Without TAP, there are no cancer markers and the body's immune system fails to detect and eradicate cancerous cells.”

RXi Pharmaceuticals Corp. (RXII) shares continued last week’s slide down the charts Monday morning, falling nearly 4 percent to $9.50.  RXi, a discovery-stage biopharmaceutical company, focuses on developing and commercializing proprietary therapeutics based on RNA interference (RNAi) for the treatment of human diseases.

The company intends to identify lead compounds and advance toward preclinical and clinical development programs in the various therapeutic areas, including neurology; metabolic diseases, such as obesity and obesity-related Type 2 diabetes; and oncology.
