What’s Hot
LTP – LTR Pharma Limited today closed up 26% to finish at 80.5c on $5.2m stock traded. The reason they were up today was because they announced positive initial results from its pivotal bioequivalence clinical study of SPONTAN Nasal Spray.
SPONTAN is an innovative intranasal spray treatment for Erectile Dysfunction (ED), the nasal spray bypasses the digestive system and is designed to overcome certain issues experienced by some patients using other ED therapies, namely oral tablets.
Initial data from the Study shows that SPONTAN reached the same Cmax (maximum concentration) level as an oral administration, despite being administered at a lower dose while also achieving it with an average of 12 minutes compared to 56 minutes in patients receiving oral treatment.

What’s Not
GRV – Greenvale Energy Limited today closed down 40% to finish at 5.1c on $230k stock traded. The reason they were down today was because they announced a share purchase plan to raise $1.9m @ 5c.
