Henry, re: <<implications for oral version of GM-CSF are very strong>>. Agreed. And exciting. IMNX's Leukine, an injectible GM-CSF, is used following chemo in acute myelogenous leukemia, in accelerating recovery following marrow transplantation (eg for treatment of cancer), and has been shown to lengthen survival of melanoma patients. It may have other indications as well, I'm not sure.

Looks like an oral GM-CSF could tap into a sizeable market. Anyone know what revenues Leukine generates for IMNX?
