FWIW, and I apologize if this has been posted before..........

MedImmune also initiated two Phase I clinical studies of Vitaxin, an anti-angiogenic antibody optimized by AME and licensed to MedImmune, for rheumatoid arthritis and colorectal cancer.

I remember MEDI talking about plans for Vitaxin in RA, but I don't remember their having initiated a trial. Again, apologies if this has been posted.

Not feeling warm and fuzzy. Again, the MEDI spin on the phase II psoriasis results? It is not (no "IMO" is necessary) consistent with the actual results from the very small multi-dose i.v. trial. I still feel that a single ego is getting in the way of a rational test of low dose 507 for autoimmunity.

I am sincerely concerned that the antibody will be used at concentrations where T cell depletion is pronounced, without ever having sufficiently tested lower doses.
