For NHL, yes they were using Rituxan. But I think they are looking at other cancers and for at least one of those they have their own humanized Ab (and I seem to recall they were trying to make it or a fragment thereof in plants). Sorry for being vague, home page of co. seems to be down and I am too tired now to swim through the SEC stuff.

Obligatory Coulter comment: This is a nice post from Yahoo! land; summarizes expected toxicities of different treatments (patient perspective):

<<We once concluded that NERX was using C2B8 for initial studies>>
The table of clinical trials lists it as C2B8-SA,90Y-B. There is a reference listed as "Pretargeted radioimmunotherapy (PRIT) for treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: preliminary results [abstract] J Nucl Med 1999, 40:19", but I can't find it listed on the Journal of Nuclear Medicine's web site for Jan - Nov. The page number indicates it should be in the January issue.

Too bad they aren't listed on Saturday's Informed Investors in Seattle, or Mike could ask about it.
