Dendreon Corp (DNDN)

Whole new way of treating cancers, with treatment for breast cancer to follow treatment for prostate cancer. No more chemo or radiation. Amazing technology. Acts like a vaccine. Big companies putting big money into it, i.e. Fidelity Mutual Corp.

Investigational drug ready for FDA approval.

They have a reexam pending on their key drug Provenge (which they have not commented on). If Congress can't agree on some type of market exclusivity, they could have no market protection. They are consequently not a good acquisition target at this time despite popular sentiment.

A new paradigm in fighting cancer

I think this may actually happen in closer to 1 year but will occur by the 24 month point for sure. As a health care professional I can honestly say that the data behind Provenge looks great, and when combined with the lack of side effects mean this agent will likely become a preferred option in its arena. I do not know an single oncologist who won't be trying to use this in earlier stages if they see the same results shown in IMPACT

TOO many competers and nom earnings. Rise on news only.

SLAMDUNK !

A decent pullback seems natural at this point

Huge losses. Weak balance sheet. Recent price escalation seems to be due to speculation and unrelated to business fundamentals. May need to dig further to see if they recently invented the cure for unhappiness.

Their spending too much money... promising news in Sept, most likely a feel good for investors, without much substance. Look for less than $10.00 by year end

Nothing has happened regarding the buyout, I think this will go back to teens again

FDA approval followed by large orders.

Terribly overbought

Up and coming in the fight to prevent cancer.

going to be approved it is a game changer in treating cancer,

Merriman has $50 price target and many analysts think DNDN will be bought out before 2010, and they will have a catalyst from submitting their app to the FDA in a few months...so the stock should outperform market in next 6 months...even though this does not count the huge April run-up. Anybody believe in NewWorldInvestor's $360 price target (not counting dilution vis share issuances)? Pretty interesting...
One must be skittish about long-term hold with DNDN, though, because they want insurance companies to pay about $60,000 per patient after it gets past the FDA and available in the USA market - to only give each patient a few extra months of life before dying. Because there are MANY drugs and treatments that aim to delay death from various cancers by only a few months, and they (almost) all cost tens of thousands per patient, you have to consider Obama and the insurance companies teaming up and targeting this area as a primary cause of PREDICTED/FUTURE healthcare cost growth. They will try to find a way to cut out insurance coverage for these kinds of very expensive treatments. Big ethical debate on the horizon, don't you think?
I hope patients and the economy's stability benefit from the emergence of simpler and cheaper PREVENTIVE treatments like the prostate cancer prevention drug from GTXI, that many folks (the ones who want the drug) can likely pay for themselves on a monthly basis, with only partial insurance co-pay.
