While it is a long way from rats to people (despite Bernie's apparent predilections), one would think the recent news would have been good for more than a skimpy one point jump. If tamoxifen pulls in 560MM a year, then it is not much of a leap to envision LGND's revenues going up substantially when Targretin comes to market in the first part of 1999. Of course it depends on preliminary P2 results, but these ought to be available by the time Targretin gets FDA approval. My guess is that they will start a couple of trials very soon--Targretin as monotherapy and Targretin in combination with Tamoxifen. Good results for either will result in a lot of off label prescriptions for Targretin, IMO. If this scenario pans out, LGND could earn a LOT more than .09/share in 1999.
