Key Interviews & Data Out of ASCO (AVAN, PFE, CELG, IMCL, DNA)
June 2, 2008 · Filed Under Cancer
Today we saw many stocks with key news events at the annual American Society of Clinical Oncology or “ASCO” conference in Chicago. Much of the data had been signaled a couple of weeks ago ahead of the conference, but many more data points were seen today or over the weekend. CNBC’s Mike Huckman got to cover many top issues, and he ran many video interviews today from some of the key movers. Here are some of the stocks they covered with the share price reaction:
- AVANT Immunotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAN) +28% at $17.98.
- Celgene Corporation (NASDAQ: CELG) +0.56% to $61.20.
- Genentech Inc. (NYSE: DNA) +4.3% to $73.95.
- Imclone Systems Inc. (IMCL) -6.06% to $40.94.
- Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) -0.9% to $19.18.
Since CNBC had many of these interviews on an exclusive or near-exclusive basis, we’d suggest that you watch these video clips if you missed the news today as they all had market-moving data today or over the weekend.
