The response rates to Bexxar are just great. If the data from initial trials hold good, the drug may even replace chemotherapy or be used routinely with chemotherapy.

I am amazed at the beating that Coulter stock has taken on such a minor issue. Ignoring the fundamentals and respecting the charts and analysts is dangerous. As a Hematologist, last year I decided to buy Idec after seeing what Rituxan was worth. When I read on SI about how the chart looked terrible for Idec, I sidelined my Medical knowledge and fundamentals and did not buy the stock in 20s. Today it is trading around 130, 15 months later.

I feel that CLTR stocks will recover very rapidly and could trade around 100 in 2 years. The drug is just superb and its merits and fundamentals will catch up with technicians and analysts. Those who who will have courage of convictions and respecting the fundamentals of a product or a company will be richly rewarded.

According to a Piper Jaffry report, at the recent Chemotherapy Foundation Symposium in New York, some preliminary results of the bexxar/fludarabine study were presented. All evaluable patients (there were 40 in the study) have responded to the combination. Importantly, no HAMA (human anti-mouse antibody) responses were observed.

Proving once again that Vector1 has a nose for the news on this topic.

Unfortunately, SmithKline announced in a conference call last month that refiling of the BLA will be end of first quarter 2000, which I don't think has been posted here before. Anyone hear this call?
