"The chemical structure of Fareston differs from that of tamoxifen, a widely-used antiestrogen, by the substitution of a chlorine atom for a hydrogen atom in the 4-position of the ethyl prosthetic group of the molecule"

Henry, do you know how Targretin's molecular structure and method of action differs from tamoxifen?

Regards,

Walter

Could we have more info on Targretin; or, at least how LGND's drugs interact to make $$. It seems as though we've had a lot of repetitive posts on Tamaxofin and now Fareston.

Anyone know the time frame for our Targretin and the % chance of success? Rememer, Zantac well surpassed Tagamet as the drug of choice even though it came out later.
