Margie, you are very,very good. Thanks for your post.

Below is something posted yesterday on the Yahoo thread about IMNR and its' cancer activities. If true, it should be quite positive for IMNR
IMO. What do you think about this area of IMNR's activities?

I have not seen this news release from IMNR yet which makes me wonder if this post is correct.

membrane-bound cytokine-containing antitumor vaccines covered by U.S. patent

A U.S. patent (patent: US 5891432) has been issued to Immune Response covering the use of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expressed in membrane-bound form to induce a powerful antitumor immune response. The as a vaccine designed to stimulate the immune system to destroy the cancer. The immune-activating cytokine GM-CSF is bound to the membrane of the tumor cells, which results in a more effective, genetically altered tumor cell vaccine than existing
vaccines, as demonstrated in preclinical models in mice, where complete protection from tumor challenge has been obtained using this membrane-bound technology. These findings are scheduled for publication in the June 15, 1999 issue of the Journal of Immunology (Immune Response News Release). "


Regards,

Don
