Hot Medical Stocks To Own Right Now

These two big tech companies are facing challenges in the years ahead but MoneyShow's Jim Jubak explains why he has a favorite.

If you need a reminder that Intel isn't Microsoft, the Intel's announcement of a new line of chips called Quark, on September 11, should be a good place to start. Now Microsoft—it's in a really kind of bind, because what they seem to have to do to move away from their dependence on PC software, is to help the PC industry make the transition onto a whole new set of devices, so they bought Nokia, they've done a tablet, they're pushing these devices. Well this is a software company that has to do investments in hardware in order to get the hardware companies to move up fast enough, so they can create a new market force. You could argue, and I would, that Microsoft is moving away from its traditional strengths in software, into a field where, despite the success of the Xbox, its record is kind of mixed. Remember the Zune—okay.

Intel, on the other hand, has got a similar problem, that PC sales are slowing; that the market seems to moving away from the desktop to mobile, whether it's a Smartphone or a tablet or an iPad-like device and Intel's been relatively late in coming to this market, so it doesn't really have much market share. It doesn't have chips that are very popular, haven't been designed in. It's really trailing people like Qualcomm and ARM Holdings. The Quark however, shows, I think, that Intel doesn't need to go out and start making devices. The Quark is a line of smaller, lower powered chips designed for a new emerging market and this is the sort of embedded market, the idea that you're going to have intelligent refrigerators that will be somehow connected to the internet and a part of that or intelligent posters. The Quark is actually small enough so that Intel says one of the uses could be ingestible diagnostic devices—medical devices that give readings on body conditions that you can actually swallow and give you a reading from the inside about certain processes. The whole point is that this really plays, not to Intel's moving to another area, but to Intel's strength.

    But looming larger is the specter of increased competition in prostate cancer. Late last month, Medivation (NASDAQ: MDVN  ) got a favorable opinion from an advisory panel for the European Medicine Agency for its Xtandi treatment, which will expand the drug's reach beyond the U.S., where the FDA approved Xtandi last August. Moreover, Johnson & Johnson's (NYSE: JNJ  ) Zytiga saw sales grow 72% in the company's first-quarter report, with even faster growth internationally.

Lymphoseek

Navidea�� pipeline includes clinical-stage radiopharmaceutical agents used to identify the presence and status of disease. Lymphoseek (Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m for Injection) is a lymph node targeting agent intended for use in intraoperative lymphatic mapping (ILM) procedures and lymphoscintigraphy employed in the overall diagnostic assessment of certain solid tumor cancers. The lymph system is a component of the body�� immune system. The key components of the lymph system are lymph nodes-small anatomic structures that contain disease-fighting lymphocytes, filter lymph of bacteria and cancer cells, and signal infection in response to heightened levels of pathogens. In Navidea�� Phase III clinical studies of Lymphoseek, it detected over 99% of positive nodes identified by vital blue dye (VBD). As of December 31, 2011, Navidea, in co-operation with UC, San Diego affiliate (UCSD), completed or initiated five Phase I clinical trials, one multi-center Phase II trial and three multi-center Phase II trials inv! olving Lymphoseek. Two Phase III studies were completed in subjects with breast cancer and melanoma. During the year ended December 31, 2011, data from NEO3-09 were released, which indicated that all primary and secondary endpoints for the study were met. As of December 31, 2011, third Phase III clinical trial for Lymphoseek in subjects with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (NEO3-06) was in progress.

AZD4694

AZD4694 is a Fluorine-18 labeled precision radiopharmaceutical candidate for use in the imaging and evaluation of patients with signs or symptoms of cognitive impairment such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). It binds to beta-amyloid deposits in the brain that can then be imaged in positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Amyloid plaque pathology is a required feature of AD and the presence of amyloid pathology is a supportive feature for diagnosis of probable AD. Patients who are negative for amyloid pathology do not have AD. AZD4694 has been studied in several clinical trials. Clinical studies through Phase IIa have included more than 80 patients to date, both suspected AD patients and healthy volunteers. No significant adverse events have been observed. Results suggest that AZD4694 has the ability to image patients quickly and safely with high sensitivity.

RadioImmunoGuided Surgery

As of December 31, 2011, RIGScan had been studied in a number of clinical trials, including Phase III studies. Navidea has conducted two Phase III studies, NEO2-13 and NEO2-14, of RIGScan in patients with primary and metastatic colorectal cancer, respectively. Both studies were multi-institutional involving cancer treatment institutions in the United States, Israel, and the European Union.

The Company competes with Pharmalucence, Eli Lilly, Bayer Schering, General Electric and GE Healthcare.

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Keith Speights]

    3. Navidea Biopharmaceuticals (NYSEMKT: NAVB  )
    Some investors were likely befuddled by Navidea's stock action earlier this year. The company received FDA approval in March for Lymphoseek, its radiopharmaceutical agent used for imaging lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer or melanoma. That was great news, but shares dropped quickly and still haven't returned to previous levels.

  • [By Sean Williams]

    Diagnostics can also play an important role in early and late-stage breast cancer diagnoses. Navidea Biopharmaceuticals (NYSEMKT: NAVB  ) had Lymphoseek, its external lymph-node imaging and intra-operative lymphatic mapping diagnostic device, approved by the Food and Drug Administration earlier this year to help doctors stage cancer. Discovering whether breast cancer has invaded adjacent lymph nodes has never been easier or safer thanks to Lymphoseek, and it can dramatically aid physicians in determining the best course of action for breast cancer patients.

  • [By Sean Williams]

    Another prime example here would be Navidea Biopharmaceuticals' (NYSEMKT: NAVB  ) Lymphoseek which is an injectable agent used in external lymph-node imaging and intra-operative lymphatic mapping. In English this means it will dramatically improve the staging and treatment options for patients with breast cancer. Being that breast cancer was also listed as a commonly misdiagnosed cancer, this is a big step in the right direction for patient care.
