TD, That news segment may be getting around. Someone from Kentucky also saw a similar segment on the local news. Buyers are definitely out as LGND's ask is now up to 12 7/8.

TD, Here's what another poster had to say about a story aired on Louisville TV this week (29th?):
<<I saw Ligand on my local news today. It surprised me because I didn't see any
national news about them. They were talking about the good results of
neck,throat,head cancer and leukemia. It was one the headlines of our news with
a picture of a Ligand Pharm. bottle. It lifted my spirits on this stock. Hope there
is more good news in the future.>>

Does this sound like the news clip that you saw? He said that he missed the first 30 seconds and didn't know where the patients were being treated, but he did say that one was smiling when leaving the doctor's office. Do you know what type of cancer was featured in the Houston report. Seems like the recent clips are concentrating on head & neck tumors, which can be very difficult to treat. The earlier report from Lombardi indicated that the tumor had actually disappeared. We similar claims made in Texas?

TD, Bernie has offered to get the transcript of the news report if you give him the station, time, and date of the segment on MD Anderson using LGND's retinoid. I suspect that it is the same as the story aired in Louisville, because they both aired about the same time and the stories sound the same.
