Looking at todays activity, the stats shows there was none.
Can anyone explain this?

John, another dynamic may take place pretty soon. Development stage biotechs are pretty volitle yet news can have seemingly minimal effect. I'm noticing that as a company gets to the place where the market has colectivly determined that the company is going to make it,
the volitility decreases & response to news makes more sense.

Has clearly happened with VICL this year. ISIP may be approaching this with a no restriction antisense approval. IMSCO Scott

Some additional benefits of the news. While the drug will not generate a lot of $, the cash flow will help fund other development/help avoid share dilution that would result from a secondary placement. Also its a vote of confidence in ISIP management
in their ability to work effectively with the FDA & their NDA submission approach. Big grin time. Scott
