The question how successful this agreement can be, will be answered only by the development of this combination of device and the drug. Miravant is in the preclinical trails for oncology treatments, while Xillix technology is basically ready to serve in this area already. I agree that QLT is way ahead compared with Miravant and circumstances of the moment, once again as with Olympus, have taken opportunities away from Xillix for better exposure I suppose, not necessarily QLT was interested. I am hoping since P&U has taken a lead in development of SnET2 from Miravant, they will have a better opportunity to catch up or rather start up in the oncology area with their PhotoPoint.
Olympus obviously will play this big brother card in the area of Life-Gi, they may as well pay $30.00 per share and had their way with all the aspects of Xillix work.
