Paradigm:

Your view is shared among most of those who (1) know the sector, and (2) I come in contact with. It's largely unchanged now (the "lean") for a couple of years.

Will NESP make the point largely moot?

There was already an existent TKTX thread. Nice to try to keep the place as tidy as possible.

I believe that Amgen's method is substantially quite different from that of TKTX and therefore should not be covered in the Amgen patent. However, the real question is whether Amgen can keep up the legal proceedings for several years and effectively block TKTXs product from getting to market. In three years or so, I believe Amgen's patent runs out anyway. So the question to me is how long Amgen can stall.
