WTD, take a look at this post:

and those "around it."

Bottom line GM-CSF is a protein drug sold by Immunex for decent profits. The closely related one, G-CSF aka Neupogen, is sold by Amgen for obscene profits. EPO aka Epogen is also sold by Amgen (and J&J), and is not too far fetched, conceptually, to think that if one can make a small molecule version of GM-CSF, one could do the same for EPO. Henry could explain (has explained?) in more detail; something to do with STATs.
