Tuck:

I hope Anesiva's DD regarding competition is not representative of its overall capabilities. Painceptor does not have a VR1 program (their pain programs have acid-sensing ion channels and NGF receptors as their targets). Purdue did, but I believe they ran into some IP problems (I think with Neurogen) and had to back off. Whether they have a backup program I don't know, but I doubt they are clinic-ready if they do.

FWIW.

GSK is in PII:

gsk.com

705498 under Neurosciences.

They probably searched for VR1, as opposed to TRPV1 . . .

GSK has updated their pipeline, and their TRPV1 molecule is no longer listed as being in the clinic, FWIW. Seems the front-runner hath fallen.
