Janssen Research & Development will collaborate initially with KU Leuven, University Hospitals Leuven and VIB( Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie) to create opportunities for collaborative research, and will invite other academic institutions to join the project as its next phase begins later this year.

Interest in a treatment for dengue fever in Europe was confirmed today by the announcement that J&J has signed a collaboration with the Wellcome Trust and the University of Leuven in Belgium. http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/News/Media-office/Press-releases/2013/WTP053792.htm
No doubt tha Big Pharma seeks creative and mutually beneficial pharmaceutical collaborations that as they say, "provide the best value in medicines to patients and to the healthcare industry".
The approach of some includes early stage option-based deals, late stage licensing deals, and acquisitions.
Geographically speaking they may be talking, dealing, collaborating on the other side of the world. However, it could also be a diversion while talks are going on closer to home. Just speculating.
DengueCide is "the only game in town" ~ Dr. Anil Diwan. Other Dengue drugs have failed in clinical trials. Once DengueCide is US FDA approved it will gain extension for patent life (7 years) and be a candidate to earn a Priority Review Voucher (minimum $200 million).
The efficacy of DengueCide™ *** is unprecedented ~ Dr. Eva Harris, Professor of Public Health and Infectious Diseases at the University of California, Berkeley.
The time from Phase II to market is often shorter for orphan drugs due to shorter and smaller clinical trials and FDA Fast Track designation.
Once a compound has been granted orphan designation, the odds for approval are high (82%) compared to traditional drugs (35%).
