Scott and Xioping: Xioping, I think you've covered the basics, except to say that MRE is so confident in its pipeline that the investor protection (poison pill) action the company took a few months ago said--if I recall accurately--that the company can't be bought out for less than over $90/share. The company also estimated that the pipeline of drugs that it's confident in is worth over $3 billion. These, however, are predictive, not certain, developments. What is certain is that the uses of adenoscine are expanding, such that MRE has continued to come out with earning surprises--again, not a sure thing in the future, but certainly a sign of the efficacious uses of adenoscine. If MEDR640 is approved, the profitibility of MRE is skyrocket. Approval, of course, is always a long and tough process, but the clinical trials for the uses of Adenoscine for detecting cardiac damage and for ensuring faster healing are, thus far, impressive. MRE is active both in its sponsorship of more R&D and in its attention to buying the rights of other discovered uses of Adenoscine and its cognate formulations. I'm sure the company will send you scientific articles about Adenoscine studies, as well as its past press releases concerning its poison pill package, etc. Harold V.

Check this one:

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov If one could find the full article will be better.

Notice the reference to two 1997 ongoing phase II studies, which are already completed but I have not being able to track a journal or publication, but the company's news seems to be related to these two.

Little information from med-line, as usual biotechs are late in publishing their research, as opposed to academicians who wants their research publish as soon as possible.

CVTX is also working in adenosine research. Their most advace compound is an adenosine A1 receptor antagonist to induce urine production.

But CVTX has an adenosine agonist in very early preclinical or phase I
for a similar or same indication as adenocard, a competitor?
