Max,

Yes, a National Cancer Institute spokesman appeared tonight on McNeil Lehrer (PBS). He said that it would probably take about a year to ramp production up to have enough of the drug to begin Phase 1 clinical trials. These trials will take several more years. Sounded like even if everything went perfectly it may take 4-5 years for the drug to be approved for sale. And he said there have been many medicines that cured mice that did not cure humans. But he is "cautiously optimistic".

I doubt that those who placed market orders to buy ENMD at today's opening will patiently stand by for the next 5 years.
