Bernard,

I think that its filing of the amended NDA for Natrecor; plus the increased estimates of pt population for Natrecor; and the outlook for an FDA response by July or August given the rules on amended filings; that have caused most of the price gain from last year's lows.

P38 Kinase inhibitor looked very promising prior to clinical trials for RA -- a very impressive presentation on Scios's website of the results obtained in animals. Passing this first milestone, IMO, is a very significant step toward a major blockbuster.

Re Feb 8 report; I wouldn't expect much; they're not going to produce substantial revenues until after Natrecor ramps up which won't be before 4Q.

Ian.

Scios and p38 MAP kinase. I wish them the best. But Bayer, SMKB, JnJ, Merck, VRTX, to name a few, all have real active small molecule anti-p38 programs in RA.
