People should take a look at the CELG thread for their latest results confirming that their single-isomer version of Ritalin has a longer duration of action than an equivalent dose of the racemate. In this case, a longer duration of action is very significant, as it means no in-school dosing.

As I discussed on that thread, the reason for the longer duration of action isn't clear to me - it may be something analogous to Xopenex.

This looks to me like a further validation of SEPR's ICE strategy. We'll see if CELG finds a nice US partner soon.
