Good post Russet,

Biovail may well be the best baseline to compare our DMX against. They're Canadian and a drug delivery technology company too, however using traditional oral and still suffer systematic side effect problems. But they counter that their drug time release makes the active drug safer.

$11.418 Billion market cap! = 132mm shares out at $86.50

They also appear to win many (all?) legal wrangles. Must have lawyer insiders. <g>

BVF also has taken a liking to PBP's Fibrostat wound healing technology. I don't think this is time release. They will be hiring 500 sales staff to handle US sales of recent drugs.
