That's why you license it out. Let someone else spend the time and money on it. The oncology program potential is so much larger than NASH.

Oncology is likely boom or bust, while NASH is quite sure.

Maybe it's my english that is not good enough, it is obviously far from perfect, but by "quite sure" I intended to say something like almost sure, or likely to be successful. Risky to put a relative adjective with an absolute word.

That is not true, proper patient selection is critical to show efficacy, but there is a lot more that will need to go right.

I think it would be better stated that "the oncology program potential MAY BE so much larger than NASH" TH just started a phase I trial and dosed its first patient. It is hardly a lock that we will even have a cancer program a year from now.

Egrifta is safe that's the leg up on everyone in the space

They don't need revenue from oncology for the share price to go up. Positive results in phase 1 and 2 studies will boost the share price in multiples of what it is now.

What's more likely? The entire investment community has undervalued the NASH market for TH or maybe the market for Egrifta is much smaller than what is speculated on this board?

MDGL's CFO estimated the NASH market is about 50 billion dollars couple of years ago yet Abraham ascribed one billion peak revenues for Egrifta, Ed Nash less than that, am I missing something here? When they are ready and I really hope in not too distant future the company needs to make their own estimates which hopefully won't be out of thin air like the journalists.

You are missing the only thing that matters. The current share price the market has ascribed to TH's NASH program. It's not an oversight by investors. It's a reality.

Believe me I haven't missed that and it's real so is the reason why.

So are you saying that every single investor is wrong except for a handful of people posting on this board?

Do you know what would make investors aware of TH's NASH program. A big licensing agreement with a company like Gilead to develop Egrifta in NASH. If the company's prospects for NASH are as bright as some here think, there are companies lining up to partner with TH. Then the company can focus on the bigger opportunity in oncology.

Agreed! Partnering will be a strategic decision and there is no way at this time to know if they should partner Nash or Oncology or both or neither....Phase 1 results in Oncology is the bare minimum needed to know if it has any value and FDa and EMA approval of the Phase 3 Protocol is also a bare minimum....

Good luck arguing on that here. Been there, done that... it is like arguing against revealed truth...
