Hi Gang,

Why hasn't NTII sought orphan drug status for Memantine for Aid's related Dementia? It would provide potential cash through grants. Along with seven years protection for an indication where there are no existing treatments. Does anyone have any insight on this matter? Is the patient population too big to receive such status? Also is it not possible that Memantine would be used as a prevenative measure in many patients if the common stages of neuronal destruction is anticipated as a consequence of the disease state?
