Galectin Therapeutics Inc. (GALT)

Thank you. That was my assumption. I'm assuming that it has to do with the particles being too large to be taken up in the small intestine. So, there's the difference in administration of the molecules too--intravenous vs. oral with MCP. Maybe it isn't so much the particle size as the bodies capacity to absorb them through the gut? Doesn't matter which right now I guess. I know GALT, and I think LJPC too, are working on oral formulations. It'll all be clear in time.

My problem now is to decide where to put my monthly investment allowance. I'm only in one other stock and my bang for the buck is a little better now with GALTW for quantity of shares but the other one is pretty hot right now too...decisions, decisions.

I may sleuth around on the PDB and see if I can find the 2 molecules to compare size. I'll report back if I find anything interesting.
