While Glivec, Femara, and Zometa are doing well, failure of the PTK and misconduct Vertex kinases deal + weak pipeline are not going in her favor.

1. PTK has not failed yet, although it did miss an interim endpoint in progression-free survival in one of two pivotal trials.

2. I would not characterize NVS’ oncology pipeline as weak.

Still, a record that only a very small number of oncology executives can surpass. Maybe someone at Genentech. Who else?
