OFF TOPIC: Chris, I am playing GENR in the "wet" age-related macular degeneration (AMD) area. Genr has three clinical trials for AMD and at least one of them is with QLTI's Visudyne. Should get some results on one of the trials by the first week of Nov. at the latest. Both QLTI and GENR up this morning on Alcon's failure of their AMD drug.

MSI-1256F-208 is the second Phase II trial designed to evaluate the effects of three different doses of squalamine in combination with an initial Visudyne® treatment in 45 patients with AMD. Specifically, this study will evaluate the safety and effects of systemically administered squalamine before and after photodynamic therapy with Visudyne®. Based on its mechanism of action, this squalamine pretreatment has the potential to improve the effect of Visudyne®, and squalamine follow up treatment may inhibit the detrimental effects of the VEGF 'burst' that commonly occurs after Visudyne® treatment.
