(Nasdaq: MRVL), Deere & Co.(NYSE: DE), Melco Crown Entertainment Ltd. (Nasdaq: MPEL) and Campbell Soup Co. (NYSE: CPB).

In the Stock Alert, the author highlights Immunomedics’ reporting on its first clinical study of milatuzumab:

 

Immunomedics Inc. (Nasdaq: IMMU) shares rose 2.41% to $2.56 midday today. The New Jersey-based biopharmaceutical company, presenting at the 2009 Annual Meeting of American Society of Clinical Oncology, reported results from studies of milatuzumab, the company's proprietary humanized anti-CD74 antibody. Immunomedics is focused on developing monoclonal antibodies to treat cancer and other serious diseases. According to the news release, the goal of this first clinical study of milatuzumab is to evaluate its safety, tolerability and feasibility in patients with multiple myeloma. Other objectives include preliminary information on efficacy, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and acceptable doses for subsequent studies. … The company said milatuzumab produced disease stabilization in some patients with multiple myeloma and is well tolerated at doses up to 16.0 mg/kg. Milatuzumab has reportedly shown efficacy in preclinical B-lymphoma models, particularly multiple myeloma. In addition, milatuzumab is rapidly internalized when bound to its receptor, thus making CD-74 a promising target for conjugated drug delivery.

 

The Stock Alert author also featured Merck and AstraZeneca agreeing to work together to test two early-stage cancer drugs:

Merck & Co. Inc. (NYSE: MRK) shares slipped .40% midday today, trading at $27.45. Merck is a global research-driven pharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, manufactures and markets a range of products to improve human and animal health. Merck and AstraZeneca recently announced they will test two early-stage cancer drugs together after preclinical evidence suggested that combining the two targeted therapies could make them more effective. … Both companies agreed on working together to research a novel combination anticancer regimen composed of two investigational compounds, MK-2206 from Merck and AZD6244 from AstraZeneca. Preclinical evidence indicates that combined administration of these compounds could enhance their anticancer properties. Both companies will work together to evaluate co-administration of the compounds in a Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of solid cancer tumors. All development costs will be shared jointly, the report said.
