The new data on Ampligen's anti-tumor potential in melanoma treatment is promising, especially given its publication in a peer-reviewed journal. This suggests scientific validity and could attract interest from the oncology community. However, it's important to note that this is likely early-stage research and the path to clinical application remains long and uncertain.

Investors should watch for concrete progress in later-stage trials and regulatory milestones to gauge Ampligen's true potential.
