"Positive feature on AVI BioPharma ( AVII ). The company has a drug for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, the most severe form of the disease in early stage clinical trials. The drug, which targets one of the many mutations in a gene on the X chromosome, has shown promising results in animal trials and so far has been reported to be 'well tolerated' in early human trials. This version may be able to help about 13% of Duchenne patients, though the company hopes to expand its effect to other mutations that may eventually help half of patients with the disease. Barron's predicts if the drug proves to be effective "this biotech will soar" garnering as much as $1B in annual revenue from the drug."
 believe CHLN will break very soon with the company report at the end of October and have a dramatic rise but AVII and DEPO may break out on Monday.
