Harvey,

The combination therapies are certainly far ahead of PRLN. We knew this at the beginning of the year. However, as Rick pointed out earlier, the protease inhibitors and other nucleoside analogues (like AZT) are very expensive. Combination therapies will cost insurances a lot money and, as of current, mostly available to those who can afford it. PN355 was also effectively used together with AZT. So it is possible that the PN355 will be used as cheaper alternative or to reduce the dosages of either nucleosides or protease inhibitors. Also, extracts from the plant should be readily available.

What worries me much more is this bear market. Blood baths! Cyto had a product approved yesterday, and the market drove it down today. PRLN has resisted this current down turn very well (compared to my other biotech holdings). I am very hopeful that the Cohn's paper brings some positive responses.

Good luck,

Michael
