DC;

Regarding your patently unobjective and dismissive comments regarding Vical's technology, please be aware that a 20% (or less) response rate
is common for many highly regarded drug therapies and is more than enough for FDA approval and commercial success. This is especially true for life threatening and generally incurable diseases such as cancer. I note that CORR is achieving commercial success with a heart treatment that improves the odds of patient survival by approximatley 1% over previous therapies. Anyone knowledgeable about the efficacy of drugs today would not deride a potential 20% response rate for cancer. In your case, you are either not knowledgeable or hoping that the readers of this thread are not. You needn't bother replying to posting this as I am not interested in at best ill-informed views on Vical.
