After ISIP-LLY deal, this one was new affirmation of the antisense-based drugs, at least for cancer therapy.

More important: "One of our clear objectives for achieving sales growth in the coming years is the in-licensing of late-stage development compounds with significant commercial potential, and this agreement is a tangible example of that commitment."


EU pharmas (starved for new medicine: SKB, Aventis and Novartis) capitulated recently. US pharmas are bit stubborn, but they are dead in water for some time.

If Aventis is paying $500M for Genasense (+ ~$500 M to complete trials, my view), than we will see (in not that distant future) deal worth more than IMCL-BMS, imo.
