JOEBT1, The LGND lawsuit against PFE was settled outside of court in LGND's favor. PFE agreed to pay LGND milestones on Droloxifene (some of which has already been paid) and to pay a royalty of 1% of gross worldwide sales of Droloxifene for breast cancer. If Droloxifene is approved for other indications (such as osteoporosis), the royalty rate will go up to 3% of sales for all indications, including breast cancer. The royalty rate on CP-366,156 is 6%. All other alliances that LGND has includes double digit royalty rates.

As far as the psoriasis trial is concerned, I think that Phase II is just about finished. Clinically, LGND is set to start Phase III. However, they have many promising trials and I'm not sure where psoriasis is on their priority list (Phase III trials are very expensive).
