Biotech / Medical : Ligand (LGND) Breakout! -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Henry, neither have I.

Besides the FDA site, I've searched the 1997 annual report, the 3Q SEC report, the 2Q, and many press releases, and have come up with zip. I can find nothing in print that says Targretin has orphan designation for CTCL. (Found Nipent -- Pentostatin -- though.)

We've talked so much about it, that I'm shocked that I have no documentation. I'm sure this is just a loose end. Still, someone out there, please supply a link, or tell us when it was announced.

I've been wondering why there's been no NDA application filed yet for Targretin/CTCL. For Ligand's financial health, this event is on the critical path.
