You hit it right on. Some will be successes others wont. The molecule of this year is the bust of the next year. EGFR is a molecule of the year -- the hype molecules never are all they are stacked up to be. P53 went down, NO went down, FGF went down, EGFR is going to go down.

I wish I were wrong. The growth factors that have been successes are those that are aimed at helping normal tissues not the ones that attack tumors (the tumors are too smart). Examples of the successes are GCSF and EPO.
Take care
