Not going to say this munch of Calistoga for $375 million would make it a lot less likely that Gilead would munch Vertex, but maybe a little. Simply because of the use of cash and the distraction. Pretty small, a munch of Vertex is still doable . . . anyhow, Calistoga is a PI3K specialist, a different area for Gilead, which had an unsuccessful foray into oncology once already. They've dipped their toe back in those waters with GS 6624, a monoclonal antibody in P1. This is putting a couple of more toes in . . .
