I don't know enough about GMED's core technology to comment on their comparability. The press release mentioned polymers, peptides, and lipids, which suggests more comparability to a lipid delivery system than a customizable dimer system. I didn't notice any reference to an apoptotic mechanism, which ARIA has. Like Ariad, GMED claims dose dependent expression levels, and the ability to turn protein expression on and off.

There are other posters to this thread who will be more able than I to compare the two approaches.
