Well, I'm glad they've given up on the ricin-based product.

Interesting that they're targeting such a diverse group of sick patients with their PI. I'm a little surprised they didn't go for a clearer view of its safety by using healthy volunteers. With sick patients, there are so many outside influences as to cloud the data...but apparently they're hoping to show efficacy at an early date.

It seems to be a gamble, but then it is biotech.<g>
