One of the things to consider about biotech stocks is the breadth of trials that a company is in. The more ongoing trials, the better chance a company has at seeing long-term success. On August 6th, Altamira released a statement about the protective effects of Bentrio. Bentrio is a nasal spray that is fighting against influenza A virus aka H1N1.

“Following the exciting results in SARS-CoV-2, we are very pleased to see the protective effects of Bentrio confirmed also in influenza in a highly relevant in vitro model. Thanks to its triple mode of action, which is based purely on physical effects, Bentrio can help protect against various types of virus.” 

The Chairman, Founder, and CEO of Altamira, Thomas Meyer

In addition to its other work, Altamira is working on this Covid treatment which could be one of the reasons for the bullish interest in the company in the past few weeks.

Mustang Bio Inc. (NASDAQ: MBIO)

Mustang Bio Inc. is a biotech company that creates cell and gene therapies for cancer, tumors, and genetic diseases. The company has MB-107 and MB-207 which are both gene therapy treatments for X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency. X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency is a rare immune system condition where people do not live beyond infancy with no treatment.

Because there is a large clinically unmet need, MBIO sees a great deal of potential in treating this illness. And while it may be a rather niche market, it could potentially be a game-changer in this area of the biotech industry. 

On August 2nd, Mustang received the European Medicines Agency PRIME designation for its MB-107 treatment mentioned above. The President and CEO of the company, Manuel Litchman said, “Receiving PRIME designation is an exciting milestone for Mustang as we prepare to initiate a pivotal, multicenter Phase 2 clinical trial of MB-107 in newly diagnosed patients with XSCID at the end of this quarter.”

Just a few days after this announcement, MBIO stock pushed up by around 5.67% in the market. In the past few days, shares of MBIO stock have climbed by just over 10%, indicating sizable bullish sentiment. It’s worth considering that the company’s volume is also much higher than its market average. With this in mind, is MBIO a contender for your penny stocks watchlist?
