Thanks for this information, very interesting. Thanks also to cm for sharing the Goldman report. Given Biogen's silence on the Antova problems, other than acknowledgment of their existence, every bit of informed speculation helps.

Mark, per our conversation last night, here is a partial list of companies and drug candidates (besides Biogen and Amevive) pursuing psoraiasis indication. The database I use is slightly dated and some of these compounds may be further along or may have halted. There are certainly more companies and compounds chasing psoraisis than are shown below:

Protein Design Labs: Zenapax (PIIb), SMART anti-CD3 (PII)

IDEC: IDEC-114 (PII)

CellGate: PI

OSI Pharmaceuticals: preclinical

Corixa: P-Vac, (PII)

QLT: Visudyne (PIIb)

Ligand: Tagretin (PII), Ontak (PII)

Vertex: VX-497 (PII)
