RE:RE:Partnership coming or not? No one believes cancer news… Wino
From the beginning you have mentionrd a time line of a year or so to conclude a partnership deal for Nash....This assumption sort of means that you think that Paul is wet behind the ears when it comes to deal making .....Paul has never even hinted at such a long timeline.
Maybe your theory is based on the premise that Thtx would start Phase 3 all on their own while still carrying a search for a partner.....
If not the latter your position is not very flattering for Paul....
quote=Wino115]I thought about the selling pressure too, but came to the conclusion that given the highly conservative nature of management, the fact most are remote still, and the fact we analyze every darn clue there is released or not, that I just don't think there is any group of investors that knows a whole lot more than we do about the cancer opportunity. So I discount that someone has ferreted out an aspect of the program to justify the selling.
Now that doesn't at all preclude someone from just determining they don't want to deal with the timeline, or the risk, or they are looking more generally at the cancer space and seeing numerous new technologies looking to tackle the issue; hence, a highly competitive space. Those can easily be reasons to move out, but I don't think it's that there has been a negative signal on the progress of the Phase 1a trial.
On NASH, they're now about 3 months in to a likely 6 to 12 month process. I think we'll have to wait still for any partnership discussions for NASH and, if and when they come about, don't expect a lot of upfront money changing hands.
