A big selling point for cubicin is it's once daily (same as telavancin), so it's amenable to outpatient use. They also have the bacteremia data thrx doesn't have, which also showed a fairly similar to standard of care outcomes.

I think they'll be a market for all the drugs. Cubicin is on track for roughly $200M in sales this year and they're projecting at least $500M at peak.

Hospital acquired pneumonia data will be important for thrx, due out sometime next year. Cubicin failed that indication as it doesn't get into the lungs very well whereas telavancin does.
