There are several thoughts that I have about the design of phase III study for Hu 211. First, I believe that the chance to maximize therapeutic efficacy will be in administering the drug in a shorter period of time. Looking back on the cardiac thrombolysis studies in acute myocardial infarction, it became clear that earlier administration improved efficacy. I suspect that we could see greater efficacy if the drug is given under two or three hours. This is something that could be pursued. Second, I wonder what dose escalations can be given without toxicity. If we choose the 150 mg dose, how do we know that 200mg or 300 mg might not be even more efficacious with little increase in toxicity. Third, I would hope for the larger numbers of a phase III study to give larger subset analysis
to identify specific subgroups that would benefit most from the drug.

Let's hope that the phase III partner can help design a protocol that would help put HU 211 in the best light.
