Big, front-page article about the promise of phage-based antibiotic therapy in the era of antiobiotic drug resistance dated 6 Feb 2000. From having worked with phage in molecular biology, and knowing how serious the advent of drug resistance is felt to be working as a physician, this approach to treatment is totally logical, well understood, and I think it is nothing less than HUGE. PTXX (Phase Therapeutics) was mentioned as a major company testing this modality of therapy, as well as Intralytix and Exponential Biotherpaies, both of which don't seem to be listed on American stock exchanges yet.

As a biotech stock junky, having tired of missing various opportunities over the years by excessively careful watching (ENMD, AFFX, INCY, CEGE among some of the opportunities I have carefully tracked, and missed!!), I would say that this stock is going to really bounce up on Monday morning. Of course, it will trickle back down after the excitement is over. But a lot of investors read the NY TImes. Lets see if I'm right this time.
