William, I was overenthusiastic in my statement on how large the indication upgrade was. I falsely remembered the P1 HspE7 trial was for stage I CIN (mild dysplasia) but StressGen IR reminded me it is for CIN II and CIN III (moderate and severe dysplasia). Nonetheless, the Phase II will upgrade 2 levels from CIN III past "carcinoma in situ" into invasive cervical cancer.

I regard the upgrade as positive since it indicates confidence in the therapy.

I also asked IR about StressGen's costs on the AIN Phase II trial:

Regarding the recent news release announcing that the NCI, through the AIDS Malignancy Consortium, would be supporting an investigator-led clinical trial of HspE7 in HIV+ patients with anal dysplasia:
StressGen will not be paying for the trial costs but will be supplying quantities of HspE7 at no charge.
