Re ZONA: the May issue of the J. of Urology has a supplement that lists the abstracts of papers to be presented at the AUA national meeting in San Diego May 30-June 4. There is one paper on Vasomax. I doubt the publication of the supplement last week caused a rise in the stock. By the end of May the press may have saturated the market with Viagra stories and there may be place for some Vasomax coverage (hype) if ZONA manages it well.

An abstract of the abstract:

#919 Efficacy and Safety of Oral Phentolamine (Vasomax) for the Treatment of
Minimal Erectile Dysfunction. Irwin Goldstein, Vasomax Study Group.
Placebo-controlled, parallel group, double-blind randomized study:
Placebo 16%
40mg 37%
80mg 45%

Placebo-controlled crossover
Placebo 21%
40mg 34%
"...safe and effective oral medication for the treatment of mild erectile
dysfunction."
