>>Might it not have been cheaper for GPC to buy the company ?>>

Why take on a lot of problems if they don't have to. Apart from that. The market cap of NEOT is only 1,4 mUSD. So, when GPC makes their 1 mUSD investment next year they will get a fair chunk, if share prices stay where they are now (which they of course never do).

As NEOT has now given away satraplatin one has to wonder what they are going to work on in the future. Outlicensing the neurological compounds perhaps.

The 2 mUSD collected from GPC will only last 4 months at their projected burn rate of 0,5 mUSD per month. Although GPC will most probably cover some of the burden as part of the development costs they will carry.
