Investorideas.com - Viscount Systems (VSYS) - Emerging as the "Intel Inside" of Cloud Secure Access

Investorideas.com - Viscount Systems (VSYS) - Emerging as the "Intel Inside" of Cloud Secure Access

June 27, 2013 (Investorideas.com Newswire) SoundView Technology Group: Since initially covering the arrival of cloud-based technology for physical security back in October of 2012 the market in general and Viscount Systems (VSYS) in particular have been developing faster than expected.


Physical security and access control one of the last non-digital, proprietary and very large markets that is now shifting over to software and internet based solutions that leverage smartphones and IP networks. Viscount is the only company that has developed a pure software/internet solution.

Recently they have announced a partnership with Microsoft to be a key component of their Global Security Operations Center . We expect this agreement to be a building block to additional agreements with Microsoft (who with Active Directory already holds the keys to the digital security kingdom.) Viscount is also developing relationships with all the existing large players who are likely to use the Viscount solution for access control as part of their overall proposals.



Near-term business trends have been very positive with a reported pipeline of over $12M (versus their current revenue run rate of $4M/year). The next few quarters will be an important test for the expanded and experienced management team but the momentum and market is clearly on their side.



Viscount also has extensive patent protection (60 filed claims) that will help protect them and make them a more attractive partner to the massive firms serving the industry with old technology (Honeywell, Johnson Controls, ASSA ABLOY) and IT firms like Cisco that have tried to approach the market but whose solutions have been wanting.

Viscount stock has moved up nicely since our initial coverage report but remains well below our near-term expectation of $0.26 and our intrinsic value (IV) estimate of $0.82 for 2014.

Investorideas.com - New Development for Treatment and Testing of Hepatitis C virus (HCV)

Investorideas.com - New Development for Treatment and Testing of Hepatitis C virus (HCV)

Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Reports FDA approval of IDE to Treat Hepatitis C (HCV) Patients



Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) Announces First U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)approved hepatitis C genotyping test is now available in the U.S.

U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Issues Final Recommendation Statement on Screening for Hepatitis C Virus Infection in Adults



Point Roberts WA, New York, NY –June 27, 2013 – (www.investorideas.com newswire). Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including biotech and medical technology stocks, discusses recent news and developments for the treatment and testing of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) . Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCQB: AEMD) reported FDA approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) to treat Hepatitis C (HCV) patients and Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) announced the first U.S. FDA approved hepatitis C genotyping test is now available in the U.S. to help physicians improve patient care.



According to the CDC, about 3 million adults in the US are infected with the hepatitis C virus, most are baby boomers. Hepatitis C is a serious virus infection that over time can cause liver damage and even liver cancer. Early treatment can prevent this damage. Too many people with hepatitis C do not know they are infected, so they don't get the medical care they need. Once infected with the hepatitis C virus, nearly 8 in 10 people remain infected for life.



Earlier this week the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force made headlines as it made statements recommending screening for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in persons at high risk for infection. The USPSTF also recommended offering one-time screening for HCV infection to adults born between 1945 and 1965.



“Millions of people in the United States are infected with hepatitis C, and many are unaware of their condition, in large part because they may not have any symptoms,” says Task Force member Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, Ph.D., M.D. “Hepatitis C infection is a leading cause of liver damage, liver cancer, and liver transplants in the United States. Screening for hepatitis C can help people who are infected live longer, healthier lives.”



Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCQB: AEMD), reported this week that the FDA has approved an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that allows the Company to initiate human feasibility studies of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® in the United States. The Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class medical device that targets the rapid elimination of life-threatening infectious disease and cancer glycopathogens from circulation.



Under the feasibility study protocol, Aethlon will enroll ten end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who are infected with the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) to demonstrate the safety of Hemopurifier therapy. Successful completion of the feasibility study will set the stage for Aethlon to conduct pivotal studies required for market clearance to treat HCV and potentially other disease conditions.



The FDA approved Hemopurifier therapy feasibility study calls for a single-site enrollment of ten HCV-infected end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who have not received any pharmaceutical therapy for their HCV infection for at least 30 days. The protocol consists of a control phase which consists of three consecutive standard dialysis treatments during week one followed by the inclusion of the Hemopurifier during a total of six dialysis sessions conducted during weeks two and three. The rate of adverse events observed during the Hemopurifier therapy phase will be compared to the rate experienced during the control phase. Per-treatment changes of viral load will be observed through quantitative PCR analysis. Additionally, Aethlon may also choose to quantitate HCV viral copies captured within the Hemopurifier during each treatment session.







Last week Abbott (NYSE: ABT) reported it has introduced the first FDA-approved hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotyping test for patients in the United States. Abbott's fully automated RealTime HCV Genotype II test determines the specific type or strain (referred to as the genotype) of the HCV virus present in the blood of an HCV-infected individual. Genotyping the HCV virus provides physicians with important information they can use to create a personalized, targeted diagnosis and treatment path to improve clinical outcomes.

Medical Technology Stock Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Reports FDA Approval of IDE to Treat Hepatitis C (HCV) Patients

SAN DIEGO - June 25, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) - Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCQB: AEMD), announced today that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that allows the Company to initiate human feasibility studies of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® in the United States. The Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class medical device that targets the rapid elimination of life-threatening infectious disease and cancer glycopathogens from circulation.

Under the feasibility study protocol, Aethlon will enroll ten end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who are infected with the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) to demonstrate the safety of Hemopurifier therapy . Successful completion of the feasibility study will set the stage for Aethlon to conduct pivotal studies required for market clearance to treat HCV and potentially other disease conditions.
"Obtaining FDA's permission to initiate human studies has been our most important objective for several years," stated Jim Joyce, Chairman and CEO of Aethlon Medical. "I salute the perseverance of our dedicated Aethlon team, their families, and loyal shareholders whose support allowed us to endure the challenges of navigating through FDA. We plan to reward your faith with clinical execution and progression toward a marketable therapy in the United States."
Specific to the treatment of HCV, the Hemopurifier is uniquely positioned as an adjuvant to be incorporated with either interferon-based standard of care (SOC) or emerging all-antiviral drug regimens without adding drug toxicity. In addition to augmenting the early viral kinetic response to SOC, the Hemopurifier is a candidate solution for viral rebound patients who traditionally are forced to discontinue therapy at the point HCV establishes resistance to drug regimens. Additionally, the Hemopurifier addresses the large population of HCV-infected ESRD patients for which SOC and emerging all-antiviral strategies may be contraindicated or not yet cleared. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), HCV is a blood-borne pathogen that affects upwards of 170 million persons, or 2-3% of the world's population. It is a leading cause of cirrhosis and liver transplantation.
The FDA approved Hemopurifier therapy feasibility study calls for a single-site enrollment of ten HCV-infected end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who have not received any pharmaceutical therapy for their HCV infection for at least 30 days. The protocol consists of a control phase which consists of three consecutive standard dialysis treatments during week one followed by the inclusion of the Hemopurifier during a total of six dialysis sessions conducted during weeks two and three. The rate of adverse events observed during the Hemopurifier therapy phase will be compared to the rate experienced during the control phase. Per-treatment changes of viral load will be observed through quantitative PCR analysis. Additionally, Aethlon may also choose to quantitate HCV viral copies captured within the Hemopurifier during each treatment session.
In studies previously conducted in India, Hemopurifier therapy was demonstrated to be well tolerated in treatment naïve HIV and HCV-infected ESRD patients when included during normally scheduled four-hour dialysis sessions. In these studies, average per treatment viral load reductions were observed to exceed 50% in both disease conditions. In follow-on studies of non-ESRD individuals infected with HCV, a three-treatment protocol of Hemopurifier therapy in combination with interferon-based standard of care (SOC) resulted in undetectable HCV in as little as seven days in hardest to treat genotype-1 patients. The studies also documented the ability of the Hemopurifier to capture as many as 300 billion HCV copies during a single six-hour treatment.
"Aethlon Medical has been laying the groundwork necessary to implement the now approved clinical trial protocol for several years" said Rod Kenley, Aethlon's President. "We are finally able to move forward with our contract research and clinical partners in finalizing all of the activities that can now take place prior to initiating treatment of the first patient. While there is still some work to be done, today the biggest hurdle has been cleared and we are anxious to make rapid progress towards commercialization."
The feasibility study protocol was originally designed as a human safety challenge and model for addressing drug and vaccine resistant bioterror and emerging pandemic threats such as the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) now spreading overseas. In vitro studies conducted by leading government and non-government researchers have demonstrated that the Hemopurifier is able to capture a broad-spectrum of some of world's deadliest viral pathogens. These include: Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF), Lassa hemorrhagic fever (LHF), H5N1 avian influenza (Bird Flu), H1N1 swine flu virus, the reconstructed 1918 influenza virus (r1918), West Nile virus (WNV) and Vaccinia and Monkeypox (MPV), which serve as models for human smallpox infection. Human efficacy studies are not permissible against high-threat bioterror and pandemic threats.
The Hemopurifier is also being tested for its ability to capture glycopathogen targets that initiate or enhance the progression of sepsis through a contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Sepsis is a life-threatening illness triggered by an overwhelming infection of the bloodstream. Globally, there are 18 million cases of diagnosed sepsis per year and the incidence is rising at 8 to 10% annually.
In cancer, the Hemopurifier has been discovered to capture tumor-derived exosomes underlying several forms of cancer. Tumor-derived exosomes have recently emerged to be a vital therapeutic target in cancer care. These microvesicular particles suppress the immune response in cancer patients through apoptosis of immune cells and their quantity in circulation correlates directly with disease progression. Beyond possessing immunosuppressive properties, tumor-derived exosomes facilitate tumor growth, metastasis, and the development of drug resistance. By addressing this unmet medical need, the Hemopurifier is positioned as an adjunct to improve established cancer treatment regimens. In vitro studies to date have also documented that the Hemopurifier captures exosomes underlying lymphoma, melanoma, ovarian, and breast cancer.
In design, the Aethlon Hemopurifier consists of the affinity lectin Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) immobilized in the outer-capillary space of advanced plasma membrane technology. The design allows for extracorporeal therapeutic delivery to occur on standard CRRT and dialysis instruments already located in hospitals and clinics worldwide. The mechanism of the Hemopurifier to rapidly eliminate a broad-spectrum disease targets is based on GNA's ability to selectively bind unique high mannose signatures that are abundant on the surface of cancer-secreted exosomes and glycoproteins that reside on the outer membrane of infectious viral pathogens.
The Company will continue to update shareholders, constituents and potential study participants as feasibility study milestones are achieved, including naming a principal investigator, initiation of patient enrollment and the beginning of treatments with the Aethlon Hemopurifier.

June 24, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) issues the following update from Tom Djokovich, CEO: Lately our updates have centered on our developing business opportunities, key markets, and the stabilizing solar market. In the background, we have been working full time with the CIGSolar® evaporator and we are excited to let you know that we are seeing some outstanding results.

Since the completion of the CIGSolar® evaporator assembly, we have carried out literally hundreds of incremental steps aimed toward establishing benchmarks, calibrating performance, and identifying or implementing potential improvements across our entire suite of system capabilities from material transport to CIGS deposition.
Our objective was to get the tool assembled, working, and producing results on par with the results we achieved during the initial technology development phase. The good news is that the tedious process of what seemed like endless incremental and iterative steps is now producing those types of results. Our internal testing of films is showing near identical film composition results to those recorded in a sample we provided to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) during our development phase, which averaged 16.4% efficiency.
Not surprisingly, and we have mentioned this before a few times, our proprietary thermal co-evaporation heating, insulation, and nozzle technology have performed remarkably well and we are excited about our thin film processing results and commercial prospects of our multi-source design.
This progress also shows that we are on the right track and helps to strengthen our marketing capabilities as well as emphasizes our commitment to continued process and system improvements for the benefit our customers.
As always, we are working hard to capitalize the full potential of CIGSolar® for our shareholders and look forward to sharing more progress and news with you in the near future.

Stem Cell Stock Alert: BioRestorative Therapies (OTCBB: BRTX) Expands its ThermoStem® Program to 150 Stem Cell Lines

JUPITER, Fla. - June 24, 2013 (Investorideas.com Newswire) BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. ("BRT" or the "Company") (OTCBB: BRTX), a life sciences company focused on stem cell-based therapeutics, announced that it has expanded its ThermoStem® Program by collecting 150 samples of human brown adipose tissue (BAT). For the past year, through strategic collaboration and internal BRT efforts, the Company has grown a large library of human brown fat stem cells. The ThermoStem® Program, which is in the pre-clinical stage, focuses on the development of therapies using adult derived stem cells from brown adipose tissue to treat metabolic and obesity related disorders (particularly focusing on Type 2 Diabetes). The compilation of a large number and variety of brown fat derived stem cells allows BRT to study and identify potential cell lines to be used in developing therapies.

Pre-clinical models indicate that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels in the body. Many groups are using BAT as a tool to further understand the browning effect, wherein a small molecule or pharmaceutical potentially could be developed to treat obesity and its associated metabolic disorders. However, BioRestorative Therapies' novel cellular approach focuses on what appears to be BAT's innate ability to regulate metabolic homeostasis by using stem cells isolated from BAT.
Recent published reports have demonstrated that BAT is found in adults and can be routinely isolated. In addition to providing material needed to further advance BRTs pre-clinical models, BioRestorative Therapies' library of stem cells can also provide a valuable and unique resource in seeking to develop small molecules that activate brown fat and increase energy expenditure, a strategy for addressing both obesity and diabetes. The Company's ongoing cell characterizations, collected data, and stem cells represent a potential supply of necessary controls and variety of cells for pharmaceutical and other companies embarking on the small molecule drug development pathway.
Mark Weinreb, Chairman and CEO of BioRestorative Therapies, said, "To our knowledge, we have the largest library of human brown fat stem cell lines known, which represents an enormous research asset in working towards a therapy for metabolic disorders and obesity. Having a large collection of brown fat stem cell lines will be important to accelerate the development of our ThermoStem® Program. Such access also provides opportunities for collaboration and strategic partnerships, because this volume and variety of collections is complementary to large pharmaceutical companies working on small molecule-based programs seeking to treat these disorders."
About BioRestorative Therapies, Inc.
BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. ("BRT"), www.biorestorative.com, develops medical procedures using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells, designed for patients to undergo minimally invasive cellular-based treatments. BRT is developing the following scientific initiatives:

• brtxDISC™ Program (Disc Implanted Stem Cells), a non-surgical treatment for bulging and herniated discs that addresses the gap between non-invasive and invasive back procedures. This research is still in the non-clinical, investigational stage.
• ThermoStem® Program, a treatment for metabolic disorders (diabetes, heart disease, etc.) and obesity using brown fat stem cells. Initial non-clinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels in the body.
• brtx-C Cosmetic Program, based on the development of a human cellular extract that, per initial in vitro studies, when applied to human skin cells, appears to cause an increase in the production of collagen and fibronectin, which are proteins that are essential to combating the aging of skin. Potential cosmetic uses are being explored with third parties.

The Company also offers plant stem cell-based facial creams and beauty products under the Stem Pearls® brand at www.stempearls.com.

Chinese Internet Stocks to Watch: (BIDU), (UMEWF), (YOKU) and the Chinese Online Video Market

New York, NY / Point Roberts, WA - June 20, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors issues a snapshot for the online Chinese video market and some of the publicly traded companies in the space. The big players are targeting the growing online and mobile market in China with acquisitions and strategic partnering, while new start-up company UMeWorld (OTCQB: UMEWF) is aiming for its audience with foreign content.

Search engine company Baidu, Inc. (NasdaqGS: BIDU), currently with the largest online video platform, announced in May its acquisition of the online video business of leading Internet video provider PPS for US $370 million.
Baidu and PPS expect the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2013, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon completion of the transaction, the PPS online video business will be consolidated into Baidu's financial statements. PPS's online video business will be merged with Baidu's own video platform iQiyi.
UMeWorld (OTCQB: UMEWF) operates UMeLook (www.umelook.com), an online video platform focused on bringing foreign video content to China. UMeLook is deployed through a sophisticated CDN (Content Delivery Network) with broad coverage throughout Mainland China, Hong Kong & Taiwan. UMeLook plans to be a source of foreign video content for the Chinese viewer across any Internet-enabled device within China. UMeWorld intends to focus its future operations on digital media and the digital education market.
According to a recent press release from the company, "China has a population of 550 million "webizens," many of whom are glued to tablets or smartphones as they make their daily commute; mobile Web users last year totaled 420 million, an increase of nearly 18% from the previous year. However, the competition for "eyeballs" is fierce. Unlike many local online video companies who focus on local TV series and movies, UMeLook is uniquely positioned to provide foreign UGC video content of 3 to 8 minutes duration. UMeLook is targeting Chinese viewers between the ages of 18 and 45 years old who are interested in foreign information, products and brands.”
A recent report from www.iresearchchina.com notes, "Revenue of China online video attained 2.42 billion Yuan in Q1 2013, with a year on year growth of 39.5% and a quarter on quarter drop of 11.0% influenced by decreasing seasonal advertising. As the online video markets are gradually driven by multi-devices, commercialization of mobile internet will affect whole video industry in the future.”
Youku Tudou (NYSE: YOKU) recently signed a deal with SINA Corporation (NasdaqGS: SINA) to promote its video content on PC and mobile platforms.
Youku Tudou reported, "Under the deal, in exchange for access to Youku Tudou's video library, SINA will leverage their PC and mobile platform to promote Youku Tudou's licensed content to its users on Weibo. The multi-screen strategic collaboration also draws on huge gains in mobile traffic for both companies – 76% of Weibo's daily active users access Weibo through mobile devices, while Youku Tudou counts 170 million daily mobile views.”
