Curagen anounces fastrack for its mucositis drug.
The company PR is good but a Reuters press release makes mistake of confusing priority review with fast track.
This confusion seems to happen often, even to people working in the industry.

UPDATE 1-Curagen gets fast track for oral mucositis drug
Thu Dec 2, 2004 10:34 AM ET
(Updates with details, stock price)
NEW YORK, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Curagen Corp. (CRGN.O: Quote, Profile, Research) said on Thursday that U.S. regulators agreed to an accelerated review of its experimental treatment for mouth sores resulting from radiation or chemotherapy.

Curagen's shares rose 13 percent to $7.55 in early trading on Nasdaq.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted the drug, which has the working title CG53135 "fast track" status, which means the agency could reach a decision on whether to approve it within six months, rather than the normal 12-month period.
