Ah, thanks, got the latest Reader and that did the trick. Well . . . E2 ligase program somewhat behind Rigel's (though here I'm confused . . . Celgene talks of E3 ligases on their website - which is the space Rigel is also playing in -- and of E2 ligases on their pipeline pdf). And CELG may be not much behind in any case. Rigel yapped about this area for years before anything came of it, and now they are merely in hit to lead stage in both partnered programs, perhaps a bit farther on internal ones. JNK inhibitors . . . I get those confused . . . they might be near the front there? Benzopyranes . . . me utterly clueless on competition there. The anti-inflammatory program seems to have made progess; P2 data on 10004 soon? There are competing oral anti-TNF compounds in development, I think. P1 data on 11050 soon (I don't even know what kind of molecule this is)?

Barr could also seek to overturn the 501 patent. I'm no lawyer, but it seems the whole S.T.E.P.S. concept is shaky IP. I haven't heard if Barr has divulged its strategy on this IP/regulatory front. Have you? You're almost certainly right that litigation will take longer than the 30 month stay.

Cheers, Tuck
