Thanks Ice. The new release raised the same question for me. From what I found on a brief search of the web, it sounds like the C44 antigen (variant 6) is found in a number of tumors. In some of the articles I read it sounds like the antibody acts much in the same way as Imclone's anti-EGF product. Looks like the same general set of cancers also. One other cancer that wasn't indicated in the article you found is melanoma. Sounds like the product will be broadly applicable. It is probably something also that would be used in conjunction with other treatments rather than a stand alone treatment.
