It's seem a low % but if we take a good look at Sean reference of FDA, only one on five will go commercial at the beginning of phase 1. Only two on ten will go commercial and possibly have success.

But we have a good prospect here.

First, we know that there is no big side effects on animals.

Second, there is no steroid effects and the steroids have these effects on animals. Usually, the same logic will be respected with phase 1 clinical trials. There will be no steroid side effects on humans.

Third, the sheep model is very good for asthma and we see a lowering of about 90 % of asthmatic reaction ( of the two phase-- immediate and late ). That is very good and will eventually be the same for humans.

So we are now at the beginning of phase 3, the most important. If we can have a medication by mouth that has the efficiency of steroids, with few side effects, we have a BMW here. And I don't take in consideration the other medication who is in development for arthritis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel syndrome.

So I I'm very confident but knowing the risk...
