Targretin synergizes with SERMs, of which LGND's partners (PFE and AHP) have 4 compounds (Droloxifene, CP-366,156, TSE424, ERA-937) in the clinic.

Breast cancer will be treated with combination treatments (which is the subject of LGND's LLY alliance in breast cancer - combining Rexinoids with SERMs). Several of LGND's current Phase II Targretin trials are in combination with Tamoxifen, the only approved SERM for treating breast cancer.

Your analysis is way off base. Yesterday's announcement is positive for the long term. The current milestone payment will have little impact on bottom line near term.
