Well I actually bought a very small position when the results of their trial were released. One data point is that PFE paid big bucks to Eyetech for Macugen ($100m upfront and up to $500m biobucks). The squalamine results were very strong, assuming one can believe them, that is. And if the drug works for macular degeneration it might also work in other anti-angiogenesis applications - I guess the hope is that it has wider coverage than the pure anti-VEGF drugs.

The concerns are obvious - Mexican trials and no cash. But as a small part of a basket of other stocks it may be worth a flier.
