DMP-266 approved. I'm surprised that the jerk knee jerk has been so restrained thus far...... down 1/8 on 95K shares.

Agouron Acquires New Anti-HIV Drug from Shionogi

LA JOLLA, Calif., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Agouron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(Nasdaq: AGPH - news) today announced it will develop and commercialize
S-1153, a second generation non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor
(NNRTI) for the treatment of HIV infection. Discovered by Shionogi & Co.,
Ltd., Osaka, Japan, S-1153 is currently the subject of several clinical
trials evaluating its dose and its concomitant use with other
antiretroviral treatments. S-1153 is of high clinical interest
because it is more potent in vitro than other NNRTIs such as nevirapine
(Viramune(R)) and delavirdine (Rescriptor(R)) and because S-1153 is fully
active in vitro against HIV containing the most common genetic mutation
associated with resistance to other NNRTIs including efavirenz
(Sustiva(TM)). (snip)
