The deal for Morphelan may be a bit of a red herring here. In July of 1997 Elan gave worldwide license to it to Targon, a joint venture with Cytogen for a cash payment of $7.5 M. Due to Cytogen's financial troubles that joint venture was recently dissolved, leaving Elan free to find another developer to take it through clinicals.

There are other time-release morphenes currently on the market. I feel the real issue here is Elan taking a stake in Ligand in return for the cash which it desperately needs.
