Free at last
Free at lastI think my post must have hurt/pissed offRoche so much that they threw in the towel soon afterwards.
But seriously, we are in a better situation right now.
One drug with many indications with at least two partners for different major indications would never have worked.
Just imagine pricing: one partner could have undercut the other or the cheaper voclo could have gone `off-label´against the dearer one. you don´t need an MBA to understand that this can´t work.
Now Voclosporin has been freed from the hostage takers. No matter that we kind of offered them voclo as a hostage.
Voclo is free now.
We can offer it to ONE partner for nearly ALL indications worldwide. And it´s not going to be Roche. You can´t ask for much more.
My guesstimate: we´ll close above 50 cents tomorrow and soon Novartis or Astellas will be announced as a partner.
