The trials will be large and expensive

And hopefully paid for by some pharma.

modest efficacy with pronounced toxicity.

In the conference call this morning, I believe it was stated that MLNM expected fewer and less severe side effects in patients getting earlier treatment with V than was the case in the PhII trials.

I interpreted this as being less toxic than may currently be feared.

What causes you to expect pronounced toxicity from V when treating solid tumours?

Thanks,
Ian
