First, thanks for your response.

But...... when you say that Tamoxifen was found to have other uses, wasn't that up to the company to find, and not at the FDA's behest?

Isn't the FDA a little unfair requesting that Ligand test ONTAK for other uses, if Ligand has other priorities, such as their Targretin NDA's, and wouldn't ordinarily pursue other uses for ONTAK at this time.

TIA, Bob
