Jim I'm not sure MTC will move on the news since it isn't officially published. But I will look in about 6 hours from now before I go to bed, thanks.

Report from the ML conference from labpuppy.com: Pfizer (PFE) – People tried to find out the details about the products that PFE must allow Warner-Lambert (WLA) and Monsanto (MTC) to co-promote since they gave PFE the rights to co-promote Lipitor and Celebrex. PFE was very tight-lipped about this. In regards to Celebrex, they went through their sampling campaign faster than expected (given the strong demand). They think that Celebrex has a better claim than Vioxx as it has a claim for rheumatoid arthritis versus Vioxx's pain claim. They think since that rheumatoid arthritis is a serious arthritis disease, it will boost their claims in the general arthritis market. They are in phase 2 studies on Viagra for women. They will be starting direct-to-consumer advertising in the US in order to "reinvigorate" flat US Viagra sales. labpuppy.com
