Lilly's rhAPC definitely safer, cheaper and purer to produce than the bax plasma way even if the bax gets it as a by product of their other plasma business (difficult cause they can not removed it from whole blod or fresh frozen plasma and still claim it is whole blood or fresh froxen plasma as one would with immnunoglobulins). Very doubfult that bax will get it trough.

As for the other rhAPC properties is reasonable but more work is needed, but with recent TPA poor results and risks in market conditions for stroke this seems a logical next step.

Correction: Sepsis shock market is 500,000 patients (not 50,000)if it works in severe trauma (like Icos drug)is another 0.5 to 1 million.
