On the InterMune call to me the begin negatives were the delay in launch not only for France but also Italy and Spain to likely Q4 because of price negotiations. The other negative was the problem with Pirfenidone generics being made available in some Latin American countries based on where InterMune was trying to enroll patients ( ascendtrial.com ) and their history in the drug industry Brazil would seem to be the likely country in question. I am not concerned as much the impact it having on enrollment in ASCEND but on (potential) future sales into North America in particular. I still think the delay in enrollment may work out to InterMune's benefit in terms of reimbursement price reassement for Germany and by management comments I think they are in no hurry to rush enrollment I think this may be an unspoken reason.
