One missing item in recent GNTA announcements concerns testing of Genasense in patients with breast cancer--a clinical trial going on at the Andersen Cancer Center in Houston. Several months ago, a press release noted that Genasense had promising results in patients whose cancers contained the Bcl-2 factor, including breast cancer.

My guess is that they are hoping that the remaining clinical trials, including breast cancer, will produce some solid results as early as August or September. I do not anticipate much before that time. I doubt that the stock will gain much, unless some other companies testing antisense drugs come up with some promising results that trigger a sympathetic reaction.
