Today's thestreet.com has an article on SEQU (also by Jesse Eisinger). They were up on Friday on a down day because of earnings. Their liposome encapsulated drug for KS showed increased sales in spite of a shrinking KS population, because of MDs willingness to use it off-label for other cancer indications.

A similar situation should arise for Targretin and Panretin. As long as there is some clinical data (and LGND should have Phase II data for a variety of indications for both compounds by the time they are approved for KS or CTCL), MDs are prescribing.
