Ah! It hope that Infinity has done plenty of that. On the surface, "proprietary molecule" ipi-504 seems awfully close to kos-953 (17-AAG). And yet you have a company like Ariad practically claiming NF-kB for itself--why don't they sue MLNM over Velcade too?! edit, found this sec.edgar-online.com On June 26, 2002, Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. sent us and approximately 50 other parties a letter offering a sublicense for the use of U.S. Patent No. 6,410,516 (which was recently issued and which is exclusively licensed to Ariad). We have serious questions concerning the validity of this patent. However, if Ariad sued us for infringement of this patent, and the patent was found to be valid and we were found to be infringing, we could be required to pay royalties based on the U.S. sales of VELCADE, which would reduce our profits on these sales and which could have a material adverse effect on our business. but that's pretty old news In any event, I hope that Kosan does not sue Infinity after my shares convert.
