EPIX is down 17.4% after it said there were some errors made in the transcription of data and calculation of the ADAS-cog score,& an independent re-analysis of the data has been conducted, but is now down only 11.48% <g>

EPIX has now fully closed its Dec18 UG & should be able to make a base above the $3 level.<g>

EPIX said that the corrected results still show that patients receiving 150 mg of PRX-03140 orally once daily as monotherapy achieved a mean 3.6 point improvement on the ADAS-cog versus a 0.9 point worsening in patients on placebo, which continues to be statistically significant (p= 0.021).

Data for the patients on a 50 mg dose showed a 1.0 point improvement on the ADAS-cog. The monotherapy dose response (150 mg versus 50 mg versus placebo) continues to be statistically significant with p=0.026.

The reported safety results from the trial were unchanged.

In spite of the general market & EPIX large negative CF, the stock's R/R doesn't look bad at present levels. The last private placement in Nov was at $3.10/shr. I will keep a mental target for EPIX around $5 in 2008, which is about the analyst's consensus.<g>
