Senior Chihuahua seeks second ‘Chancey'
Chancey is a ten-year-old Chihuahua who was found as a stray. He does have some tooth rot due to his age, but shelter staff said he has no problem with hard treats.
While Chancey does not seem to have a problem with other dogs or cats, he also is not one to play with them. He would rather be curled up in your lap, snoring.
If you are interested in adopting Chancey or any of his other friends at the shelter, contact them at (940) 855-4941.

TransMedics Group, Inc. (TMDX): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on TransMedics Group, Inc. on Global Equity Briefing's Substack by Ray Myers. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on TMDX. TransMedics Group, Inc.'s share was trading at $118.97 as of July 31st. TMDX's trailing and forward P/E were 59.75 and 62.11 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. A surgeon in a modern operating theatre performing a transplant surgery with medical technology. TransMedics is revolutionizing the organ transplant ecosystem through its Organ Care System, a technology designed to keep organs warm, oxygenated, and viable far longer than traditional cold storage. By tackling key bottlenecks—organ degradation, low utilization rates, and logistical constraints—Organ Care System significantly extends transplant windows and boosts usage rates. Clinical trial data highlights its transformative potential: expanded criteria lungs and hearts saw utilization jump to 87% and 81%, respectively, while DCD heart use rose from 0% to 89%. TMDX monetizes this impact through a razor-and-blade model—selling Organ Care System consoles and high-margin, single-use consumables—while providing end-to-end services through its National Organ Care System Program, a SaaS-like Organs as a Service platform. With 21 private jets, 17 procurement hubs, and trained staff, TMDX handles organ retrieval, transport, and maintenance, positioning itself as a logistics powerhouse in the transplant chain. The opportunity is vast: U.S. underutilization alone represents a $400M+ annual consumables revenue potential, and TMDX currently serves just 3% of the $39B global market expected by 2034. Future growth catalysts include a kidney Organ Care System by 2029, entry into international markets via a $200M facility in Italy, and scaling the National Organ Care System Program globally. Financially, the company achieved profitability in 2024, posting $441M in revenue and positive operating cash flow, though free cash flow remains negative due to capex-heavy expansion. Trading at a P/E of 91, investor returns hinge on continued execution, EU rollout, and successful kidney platform launch. If goals are met, the stock could double by 2030, but slower expansion or margin compression may limit upside. Previously, we covered a on TransMedics Group, Inc. by Oliver | MMMT Wealth in May 2025, which highlighted warm perfusion technology, strong execution, and real-time flight data as revenue indicators. The company's stock appreciated ~24% since Q1 outperformance played out. Ray Myers shares a similar view but emphasizes the SaaS-like NOP model and global expansion potential. TransMedics Group, Inc. is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 23 hedge fund portfolios held TMDX at the end of the first quarter which was 29 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the potential of TMDX as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Exicure Completes the Last Patient, Last Visit in Phase 2 Study of GPC-100 for Stem Cell Mobilization in Multiple Myeloma Patients Undergoing Autologous Transplant
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Exicure, Inc. (Nasdaq: XCUR), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapeutics for hematologic diseases, today announced it has completed the last patient, last visit in its ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT05561751) evaluating the safety and efficacy of GPC-100 (burixafor) in combination with propranolol and G-CSF in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). Topline results from the study are expected in the fourth quarter of 2025. The randomized, open-label, multicenter study is designed to assess whether GPC-100, a small molecule CXCR4 antagonist, can improve CD34+ hematopoietic stem cell mobilization from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood, where they can be collected via leukapheresis for use in ASCT. In data presented at ASH 2024, GPC-100 appears to be well differentiated in terms of the speed with which it mobilizes stem cells compared to currently approved stem cell mobilization treatments. Dr. Muthalagu Ramanathan, Director of the Myeloma Program and Medical Co-Director of the Blood and Marrow Transplant and CAR-T Program at U Mass Memorial Health noted that 'traditionally, patients undergoing mobilization are required to come, as an outpatient, the night before their procedure to receive the mobilization injection — a process that adds logistical challenges. The study drug GPC100 needed to be administered just 45 minutes before stem cell collection and resulted in a successful mobilization, significantly improving the patient experience. This is a true blessing for our frail myeloma patients.' In addition to multiple myeloma and a planned Phase 1 study in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, the company is also in discussions for potential collaborations that would utilize GPC-100's rapid and safe mobilization of stem cells in cell and gene therapy settings. About GPC-100 GPC-100 (burixafor) is a highly selective small molecule antagonist of CXCR4, a chemokine receptor that plays a central role in retaining hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow niche. By blocking CXCR4, GPC-100 may enhance the mobilization of these cells into the peripheral blood for collection and use in autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) procedures. Originally developed by GPCR Therapeutics, Inc., GPC-100 became part of Exicure's pipeline following the company's acquisition in January 2025. In addition to multiple myeloma, GPC-100 is also being considered in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and other diseases where improved stem cell mobilization could help enable more efficient and effective treatment approaches, such as sickle cell disease, rare diseases requiring autologous transplant, and cell and gene therapy settings. About Exicure Exicure, Inc. (Nasdaq: XCUR) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies to address key challenges in hematologic diseases. The company's lead program, GPC-100, is being evaluated for its ability to improve stem cell mobilization in multiple myeloma, sickle cell disease, and in support of cell and gene therapy. It is also being studied as a potential chemosensitizing agent in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). For more information, visit

Confused dog waited ‘by the door' after her owner died. Then came good news
A dog in mourning for her beloved owner now has a new family she can give her love to in Ohio. When Tilly, a brown and white Chihuahua mix with expressive eyes, lost her owner, a want of understanding took over that no one could explain to her. 'When Tilly's owner passed away, the family told us he loved his dogs more than anything in the world. We believed them the second we met his dogs,' the Brown County Humane Society Dog Shelter in Georgetown said in a July 31 Facebook post. 'Tilly was sweet, loyal, confused, and still waiting by the door. She's the one with the soulful eyes and the 'I've seen things' expression that comes from being the responsible sibling in a house.' Luckily for Tilly, there was another family out there for her, one that will help her through the grieving process and renew feelings of love and protection again. 'Today, we got to send her home,' the shelter continued. 'Not only did she find a new family who adores her, she also gained two tiny, opinionated fur siblings—who seem thrilled to have a new big sister (and someone to blame things on). 'Tilly's person would be proud.' People in the comment section were thrilled the shelter was able to find the pup the perfect home. 'So happy for Tilly,' one person said. 'This makes my heart so happy,' another noted. 'Big, cheesy grins on Tilly and her new Mom and Dad... The other two look a bit skeptical but I know they'll all have fun together soon,' someone chimed in. For more information on other adoptable pets, visit the shelter's website. Georgetown is about a 40-mile drive southeast from Cincinnati.
