RE:RE:RE:IBRX taking a beating today...It seems Dr. Peter Black is a key figure in both releases. Any ideas as to how all this is developing?
From the TLT news release:
Dr. Peter Black, MD, FRCSC, a Urologic Oncologist at Vancouver General Hospital, a Research Scientist at the Vancouver Prostate Centre, and a Professor in the Department of Urologic Sciences at the University of British Columbia stated "I think this is a great opportunity for patients to gain access to a promising new technology and treatment that is easy to deliver and very patient-friendly. We are delighted to be able to offer it to patients in British Columbia."
From the IBRX news release:
The co-authors of an expert commentary on the published findings for ANKTIVA plus BCG in
European Urology—Drs. Peter Black, Jonathan Suderman, and Marie-Pier St-Laurent—from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, stated, “This appears to be a major advance in disease control in this patient population, especially when the low rate of serious adverse events is considered.” They further stated, “One could make the argument that NAI [ANKTIVA] should now become the standard of care given its more rigorous clinical trial data.”
