Interesting points from the Panretin gel article:

<====================================================================
" ... we have decided to take an additional six to eight weeks to file our NDA on Panretin gel for KS. ... may also simplify or shorten the review time by the agency, helping to minimize time to market,"
====================================================================>

So..... on the one hand, a delay. On the other hand, perhaps a faster approval?! I wonder if the Market will consider this more on the positive side? Is the glass half full, or half empty?

<===================================================================
Results of the Phase III North American trial ... demonstrated that 35.1 percent (47 of 134) ... experienced complete or partial response.

Patients in the Panretin gel group had the option of continuing treatment ... The response rate (complete and partial response) was 49 percent (66 of 134)

====================================================================>

Damn, that stuff is good! It blows my mind to think that skin cancer can be treated with a gel!

I wonder how Panretin stacks up against the other forms of skin cancer?

Well...... not meaning to hype this stock, but.......

GO LGND!!!

Regards, and good luck, Bob
