It's pretty much a foregone conclusion that the FDA is going to approve Ontak. I've never heard of a unanimous advisory panel being overturned. I haven't done a present value calculation for ONTAK, but I will say that I think the market had already priced an ONTAK approval into SRGN's stock, with only maybe a small risk discount that the drug would not get approved. I say this because the market was clearly not particularly surprised when the advisory panel recommended ONTAK. If I recall correctly, LGND went down that day. However, that could be related to the market's opinion of the price LGND was paying (which was contingent on an approval recommendation. I don't recall how Seragen reacted, though.
