Andy, I've been hoping for that. Perhaps, at the upcoming conference. Beating Tamoxifen by 100%, in ugly, naked mice, if hyped correctly, could do wonders.

I have made about 6 bad predictions in a row, but....... I think that LGND's stock might jump up quite a bit on the NDA filing for Panretin Topical.

It's the first topical ointment treatment for cancer! Even though they are only getting approval for KS, to me, it has much greater possibilities. Plus, if it is hyped correctly, the public might react.

But, would a doctor use Panretin, off label, for the treatment of skin cancel? I don't know. It could be used, perhaps, as additional protection. First, remove the cancer thru surgery, and then treat with Panretin as additional insurance!?

Good luck, Bob

Andy, LGND and Cancer results - 5 drugs in the works.
But it can't be rats... it has to be MICE. Speculators respond to mice - not rats, not human studies like Ph II or Ph III - just MICE.
--- Got it? <g>

Good luck,
Herbert

To all, just heard a highlight on a story about another new research cancer drug that has scientists even more excited then Entremed's. Will be on ABC News with Peter Jennings tonight.

Anybody know what it could be. Any slim possibility of LGND's rat research being mentioned?
