Yes!! Thanks, David.

Again, I can't find prior art.

off topic.......

It looks like Merck is going to have some early data, Vioxx over Celebrex. If you have friends that are taking Celebrex, you might tell them. Also, Searle has a second generation cox-2 inhibitor coming, and Lilly SCIO have a second generation PDE5 inhibitor in phase III. Seems like Pfizer, recently scrambling to do good deals with NRGN and ABSC, not only has a problem with the pipe in five years, but is dangerously open to criticism right now.

I asked this in another thread..... cox-2 inhibitors are supposed to differ from aspirin, among other characteristics, in that they have lower affinity for cox-1 and therefore don't harm the stomach. But FDA has not given Searle/Pfizer or Merck the labeling that they want. Is everyone certain that there's no description of gastropathy due to celecoxib (Celebrex)?
