CNTO will have hard time staying above $40 given the news. CORR has been approved for unstable angina, an indication not even yet in phase III testing for CNTO. The market is 4x the size of the markets for which CNTO is approved. Looks like CNTO won the first battle but lost the war. Now all we need is for no partner for Avakine and no approval for Avakine. I am selling this morning.

I was out of town yesterday and missed all the action. My understanding is that CNTO's drug is probably the better of the two, although I'm not aware of any studies that have compared them directly. I'm actually more concerned about Merck's drug ( I think it is called Accustat ), which I believe is to go before the FDA in May.
