DaiS <<Do you still hold that Vivus will fail to get a domestic partner this year (or ever)? >> DaiS: You never know and anything can happen in the business world. Most Big Pharmas have their 3 year product plans in place and focus on products that have the potential sales of greater than $200 million per year. Given that the profits from MUSE would be shared, a Big Pharma would have to conduct an analysis that MUSE is capable of returning at least $400 million per year with a reasonable promotional campaign. Given the current Rx specification trends, it is not surprising that a Big Pharma partnership has not been finalized over the last 10 months. The best bet for a VVUS partnership would be a specialty Pharma that concentrates on urology ie American Medical Systems.... formerly a division of PFE but now an independent company. BigKNY3
