<< "We believe that ONTAK represents an important therapeutic option for patients with CTCL and their physicians, and we look forward to our upcoming review with the ODAC," said Jean Nichols, Ph.D., Seragen President and Chief Technology Officer. "We are pleased that if successful in gaining FDA approval, we will be able to provide through Ligand a rapid availability of ONTAK to CTCL patients in the U.S. and abroad, a goal many of us at Seragen have pursued for many years." >>

Many years of work went into the development of ONTAK. Tomorrow is a big day for those who have worked on it.

<< If approved, ONTAK will be recognized as the first of a new class of cytotoxic biologic agents - a fusion protein. >>

Here's hoping that the ODAC gives a favorable ruling. ONTAK could open the door to many other products.

By the way, I just visited your website, again. I wanted to find out more info about tomorrow's ODAC meetings, and had no problems locating what I was looking for.

Ligand should give you royalties on their products! <g>

Good luck, Bob
