I spoke with Ian Mortimer, investor relations at INEX PHARMACEUTICALS in Vancouver yesterday. Inex makes delivery systems that are designed to bypass the liver, blood-brain barrier, etc. Inex did some research for ISIS PHARMACEUTICALS in order to evaluate whether the Inex delivery systems would make antisense products more effective, but the research ended when ISIS adopted a policy of testing without confining the compounds to a particular delivery system or particular part of the body. From my own non-professional point of view, it seems that ISIS is concentrating on compounds that can go anywhere in the body and find the malignant cells and make it difficult for them to reproduce. We need more information on progress on all six of the compounds currently being tested.
