SUPG Is up 15.07% on volume of 119 K (still below its daily average.)

The stock almost made a double bottom yesterday with its L of Dec.27 (2.60 and yesterday' L 2.69), but that is the level from which it spurted 40% on Dec.30, when I made the comment on the Biotech fireworks thread.<g>

The company has not made any further announcements,(to my knowledge)since December 30 when it submitted a preliminary NDA for Orathecin, its oral chemotherapy treatment for patients with pancreatic Ca.

The drug had received fast-track designation by the FDA in November

In December SUPG said that it expects to have the complete NDA submitted by the end of the 1st Q of 2003.( The company has a Phase III with more than 2,700 patients.)

The insiders only hold around 6% of the shares outright, but reportedly have done some buying lately and the institutioon that hold around 30% of the shares have done some more significant buying.

The company is somewhat stranded for cash.(At its present burn rate has enough money to go for one or two Qs without further financing.<g>)So it certainly seems to need a fast approval of Orathecin.
