NVestor.......

The trial is being run in patients who are "allergic" to heparin (heparin-induced thrombocytopenia). If FDA approves the product, Novastan (argatroban) will only receive labeling for the indication for which it was tested. The liability would certainly be greater for the physician that used it off-label than for the physician that used heparin in a patient with no known "allergy".

Your thought sounds good ($$) to me, but it won't happen much, if at all, my best guess........ even apart from cost control issues.

Sounds like you should watch and listen a bit more before investing in biotech. :-)
