>>There are still no real signs that sales of the oncology products are picking up. Especially Targretin in disappointing.<<

Yup, sales numbers are disappointing on their face. But they may not be the whole story. LGND's press release indicates that "...prescriptions for Targretin capsules increased 34% compared to the same period of 2002...". Strange -- first Q 2002 showed $4.0 vs. $3.0 in 2003. Let's hope that usage is increasing based on the prescription info, and that the sales figures are misleading due to whatever (probably channel issues?). Or maybe I'm too optimistic...
