Hi Howard, supposedly the Clinton oncology initiative is suppose to approve/disapprove all cancer drugs within 6 months of their filings. Since Idec filed the end of Feb. and announced the filing the beginning of March, we're looking around the end of August beginning of Sept at the latest. The FDA pannel meeting is scheduled for the end of July. I believe the Cephalon situation was somewhat expected every since CEPH stock dropped from 40 to 20 in the beginning of 1996 when the European study showed that more patients died form the drug then the placebo. I realize there were high expectations from mangement but it was common knowledge that it was going to be a battle. A much different situation then Idec's.
