CEA Per Mitch's statement that declining CEA correlates with clinical response, and that we are seeing declining levels. This appears to be the key claim. oncolink.upenn.edu Of course we don't know how much CEA levels declined in the trial. Even so, Mitch doesn't appear to be blowing smoke. Per this link, declining CEA levels are indeed a critical and accepted marker for therapy success. For instance, 94-96% specificity in detecting liver metastases!

Happy New Year 2001 to all my friends and readers here in IMGN ... boy, if IMGN CURES A CANCER this year {from its almost-always-deadly list of the most vigorous forms under study}, what a gigantic news its going to be this year ... perhaps THE DEFINING MOMENT for humanity for this century or the MILLENNIUM ! What a fantastic way to start the Millennium with a BIG BANG like that! :-) Then, perhaps the only thing we as humans need to worry about w.r.t. extinction would be the next ice-age and the dinosaur-style elimination of the species ... but I suspect, at that time also IMGN might come to the rescue, especially to its shareholders ... huh? how? ... well, the stock-price, by then, might have reached the stratosphere already, and just by cashing out a few shares of it from his/her holdings, a shareholder would be typically, perhaps, able to afford the space journey and successfully migrate to and populate other planets, ensuring the survival of the species! Great job IMGN, we all would then say! :-) A beautiful date 01/01/01 to dream about today! (and most of us here, have perhaps stopped dreaming about the 'real' beautiful dates, way back in our teenage years only! ;-)). regards to all, -/Sonny.
