RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Getting rich or getting a return Maybe my wording could have been clearer.What I mean by Dramatic Increase does not mean overnight increase ..What I have in mind is that in a couple years the sales volume compared to current will have doubled if not tripled ...Of course Paul wont say that now ...but the rabbit is in gestation !!!

playing devil's advocate
1- Dramatic increase in the sales volume of the legacy drugs combined with the added revenue from new distribution agreements or in licensing of drugs
I don't think he described a DRAMATIC increase in sales. It sounded more like the rare disease situation where you go out a work for each new prescription and then through engagement with docs/patients you wringe out every possible cent from each script. Sounds more like a steady increase.
2- Cash infusion by a Chinese partner ---a small rabbit but would improve confidence and of course the cash position
One thing absent from yesterday.
3- Good results in Phase 1b in at least one indication which would pave the way for a Partnership agreement with a large pharma
Not clear when this would happen. The suggestion was taking one indication through to approval is relatively affordable so there's less to stop them going alone for a longer time. If Trodelvy is the model then Pharma jumped in after approval in that case.
4- Resolution of the F8 formulation which is a pre requisite for the initiation of the Nash trial with a Partner
Paul was focused on externals. I'm pretty sure he laid out a scenario where somebody (let's say Madrigal) gets an approval and then Pharma come looking for a late-stage ready asset. There is probably more than just some internal technicals that need to be resolved before this becomes an active program.

It is unfortunate as the drug likely works in NASH but there must be something else going on that is preventing other drug companies from stepping up and pursuing it. I have specualted that it is a patent issue but it may just be the big drug companies do not trust the FDA as it is currently run to back a NASH solution. The rules surrounding getting a NASH approval, the need for biopsies, etc. may be the real issue keeping interest low in NASH. That being said, there has been some interest as indicated by t he twor ececnt deals between big pharma and smaller drug companies for NASH.

I see that most(not all) here are only looking to get rich iin a very limited time period ...
These are 2 different investment thesis .... mine creates a lot less anxiety but I have no problem with those who have a different view
