Will Hemispherx Biopharma (AMEX:HEB) Make The Cut? I Think So

It has been over a month since the FDA last informed Hemispherx Biopharma (AMEX:HEB) “it may require up to 1-2 additional weeks” to make its decision on HEB’s drug Ampligen, a treatment for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. So now investors are in this state of “limbo” and no one knows when the FDA will make their decision.

According to a conference call, Dr. Carter stated Ampligen has a 80% chance of approval and possibly higher since the drug is classified as a NMW (New Molecular Entity) for which no other treatments exists. Only time will tell, until then we continue to wait.

If Ampligen is approved this will be the first and only FDA approved treatment for CFS with a estimated market of about 4 Million people.

Let us know what you think about HEB on the FavStock.com stock forums. You will notice FavStocks.com stock market forums don't have the usual pumpers, spammers, and trolls.

Heb may be a big winner.

Heb is driving me crazy but I will hold as long as it takes.

With all the speculation over the upcoming FDA approval, it is easy to get lost in the possible pps after approval. It is even easier to "dream" after watching VNDA and DNDN skyrocket after their favorable news.

But you have to remember that HEB and Ampligen have been through this up and down rollercoaster before. What's not to say that this is just not another hill on the ride?

Also, please take into consideration that this stock was between 40 and 80 cents for almost a year before the recent run-up. Any big time players who were in at those levels are safely out now. In my opinion of course. They took the smart and safe profit (huge profit), and have moved on.

In addition, the length of the delay does not indicate anything about the decision. Many individuals have mentioned that "if it was going to be a CRL they would have already provided that response and moved on, but since they have not, they are probably going to approve." This is a dangerous way to think, just look at CRME and how long they waited before receiving an approvable letter.

Almost done. Just because they have been through this so many times, does not mean this is "the one." Again, look at DSCO and how many times they have went through this procedure with no "luck."

Finally, I ask you to go to google and type in ampligen fda history and look at the hits/articles that you receive that have ampligen accompanied by twisted, strange, long. Is this not curious? I believe it is definitely something to keep one eye when you choose to invest in this company.

Please do your research and do not get caught up in the pps predictions after approval. Best of luck to you in your decisions!

Heb will make the cut and become a 50 bagger by end of next year.

Base on the last interview between Carter and thestreet.com, we might need to wait for a few months for approval due to their manufacture facilities.

Heb dropped to 1.60 today, I was one of the ones who bought in originally at 1.30 and sold around $4.00 playing off the swine flu news hype.

Ampligen will get the approval but it just seems weird that the FDA never gave an official response back and it has been 4 months.

I feel like the investors are just getting 1 excuse after the other and It's hard to say if they will get approval.

Dr. Carter said sometime in the fall, well thats october/november so here we are, if HEB hits back down to $1.00 I will pick up more shares and hopefully it gets approved around december.

Let's hope the conf call tomorrow brings some good news to us longs. It will be at 10am. Hopefully Dr. Carter will provide us all with an update other than the denial. And and update that has substance.

So, after the call, now what do you think??
