AGPH has competion coming from Vertex Pharm & their partner Glaxo.
On 2/19/97 VRTX said they will announced Phase III trials for children with AIDS in a few weeks. This won't help AGPH over the short haul. Analyst's expect the Vertex/Glaxo drug VX478 to be ready for market around Q2 1998. I read that Viracept will be priced around $5,000 for a year's supply. I think Merk has been getting around $12,000 for a year's supply of Crixavan. The new prescription data for Viracept show start coming out next week and a clearer picture of how much market share AGPH is gaining from Merk will probably begin to emerge by Mid April. Agouron's chart will tell the tale for all to see this month.
