Hi there, just joining.
The potential market for AG3340, if it works better or safer than its competitor compounds, is gigantic. Far bigger than any AIDS drug or all of them, combined. My estimate is over 10 B/y. The competition is in the metalloproteinase and angiogenesis inhibitor fields. The ideal drug is oral, inexpensive, non-toxic and curative. I think AG3340 is oral and might not be very expensive. However, I'm aware of only one entirely safe and curative drug but it is an injectable (disadvantage) peptide (expensive) combination, still in animal models.
