Michael, As I posted previously, I believe the Knoll composition of matter patent is due to expire in 2002 - it took umpteen years before they figured out it worked as a weight-loss drug and to get it approved. Knoll has recently applied for an automatic 5 year extension based on the time it spent getting regulatory approval. However, this extension may not impact SEPR's use of an active metabolite of sibutramine. Knoll also has a whole bunch of use patents (like for weight-loss) with much later expiration dates. I'm not sure what the impact of these on SEPR is - arguably nothing. Peter
