Charles N. Blitzer, MGI PHARMA's president and chief executive officer, said: ''We are pleased to be announcing further evidence that MGI 114 is capable of producing the same kind of anti-tumor response, namely profound tumor shrinkage, in humans that was previously observed in animals. With each step along the development path, we become increasingly enthused about this drug's potential. Now, in addition to strong preclinical evidence of broad spectrum anti-tumor activity, our phase 1 and phase 2 human studies with MGI 114 have thus far produced good indications of anti-cancer activity in prostate, pancreatic and ovarian cancers.''

I wonder why we don't see any contribution of MGI 114 to MOGNs stock price. If there was no MGI 114 MOGN should be worth as much as it is today or even more. I think if MGI 114 completely fails we will see the customary 50% to 75% drop in stock prices and then a slow reversion to the price that is warranted by MOGN profits. 30x 0.25 would give a stock price of $7.50 today. But if MGI 114 turns into a succesful cancer drug MOGN will probably worth much more than 10x todays puny $170 000 000 market cap. For comparison IMNX with one big drug has a market cap of $11 000 000 000.
