Charles J,

Despite these releases, SciClone's Zadaxin (thymosin alpha 1) still looks like a product waiting for a disease to treat. I've looked at some of these Phase II and III studies and the results, thus far, aren't really impressive. Further, interferon and ribaviran appear to be more efficaceous than the results of interferon with Zadaxin for treatment of Hepatitis C.

The world is still anxiously awaiting a good treatment for Hepatitis B and C as well as liver cancer. I don't think that SciClones Zadaxin will be the answer they're looking for.

Dakin Securities Starts Coverage of SciClone With a 'Buy'
Recommendation

SAN FRANCISCO, April 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Dakin Securities analyst Jim McCamant initiated coverage of SciClone Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: SCLN - news) with a ''buy'' recommendation.

Mr. McCamant set an 18-month price target of $10 on the stock, which closed Wednesday at $3.375.

He cited growing sales of SciClone's lead hepatitis product, ZADAXIN(R) thymosin alpha 1, its partnership in Japan with Schering-Plough [NYSE:SGP - news] K.K., the company's lead
cystic fibrosis product, CPX, and stronger management for the recommendation.
