Thanks very muchc. Can we get that stickied? Maybe there should be sticky folders for topics.
I believe the number to treat to save one life was 20. So 20 patients on Vascepa costs how much? and one fatal heart attack with ambulance, ER, IC etc and then death and funeral expenses costs how much? Vascepa wins.
Has the company ever stated explicitly that they were not recording other blood markers? We do know that there is and will be more continuing analyses, so it it possible that there will be some treats for our Holiday tables, in terms of additional clinical data from the trial?
You have it backwards. The article says it will cost the healthcare system $9 billion to put people on this drug. Strange that they didn’t mention what it might save in healthcare expense. That’s why I thought when I read it the first time that it was sponsored by someone not friendly to us. I still think that of course.
I’m pretty sure it was North who said JT was sitting in the row ahead of him and his wife, near the back on the right center aisle.
Opa JL!
If you subscribe to a VPN service, if your provider is blocking some kinds of data, the VPN would go around that. You could try a VPN on free trial. I used a VPN when I was in China and it got me into sites that were blocked.
The problem as I understand it is that in order to get to purified EPA you have to go through Amarin’s patented process and then re-esterify. What I remember reading is that fish oil is not easily separated into its components without a chemical process that Amarin owns. And then once you start using a chemically-derived product, this is not a natural product and should not be marketed as a DS.
Moderators, I think we could cut down considerably on the number of posts if only we had a like/nolike button with tracking. We wouldn’t have to say amen bro or you’re way off base if we could just add our alias to a vote. If you guys were to forward a request to the IHub Admin what are the chances we could have that feature?
Aargh! It was too late and I should’ve been sleeping. My addled brain came up with WebMD. The statement would’ve been better had I just said doctors will believe NEJM.
VASCEPA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to VASCEPA or any of its components. In patients with hepatic impairment, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels should be monitored periodically during therapy with VASCEPA.
So if you’re allergic to fish or have a bad liver it’s not for you otherwise take Vascepa or ba at risk for CVD. Actually I think there are other individuals who should not be on it like maybe people with afib.
Results for PE only include first events, but subsequent events are still counted in SE's.
Thought better of it. Maybe just send him a mirror. That should be punishment enough.
Well, 30 is on the way to 40, but you may not actually see it due to the high speed leapfrogging.
You jest, Sire. You are a preeminent brother, a Mississippi paddlewheeler. I am a polliwog, to mix batters.
BB, Forbes is yellow trash, stinky sewage. You are a stallion. Please don’t step in the sewage. Doctors will trust NEJM and WebMD.
I think people should be very careful that the FUD doesn’t steal their shares on Monday. I remember how many people got their shares ripped off in the DNDN flash crash. Do not set a stop loss and remember if your sell you may have to pay more to buy back in, or else just watch the train pull away without you after you fall off.
I think the point was that in order for him to publish at 3 PM he had to violate his NDA to query his sources because their responses indicated knowledge of the results.
I believe Herpes has always been a shill for the shorts. He don’t need no stinking facts.
“Why The FDA Probably Won't Approve An Expanded Indication For Amarin's Vascepa
Larry Husten”
LOL! Larry Husten is a long time basher;!he wrote that libelous piece that floated around several publications last week.
It’s called due diligence. Do some. There are many links easy to find.
In addition to the shorts the naysayers will certainly include many people with conflicts of interest including many PhD’s with research grants from institutions and corporations that would not like to see Vascepa succeed.
BB, I’d like to add my thanks to everyone else’s for the incredibly persistent effort you put in here.
To Py:
Let’s see, 18,000 shares times $10, $15, $20? You’re gonna need Vascepa or a sheet rock wall watch out for the studs.
What if we are both wrong?
Poppycock! I wonder what percentage increase the option pricing was forecasting on September 21st.
Thanks for that update. Sales reps are the line troops and knowing their confidence and morale is encouraging.
Spamming this board will not improve the likelihood of Matinas succeeding. You also lied. Matinas tried a very small sample of people over a very brief period. That will never fly as a clinical trial.
From what I hear he got no love ever.
Yes without any doubt at all you can trade spreads on TDA website or on thinkorswim and in doing so you get a lower commission and a tighter spread. You might possibly have to have your option trading level increased to include spreads.
That is truly awesome! On thinkorswim I don’t have to think to know my delta because they show the Instantaneous delta by position and by underlying group.
Hey Dan, it’s none of our business but I’m really curious what your delta was at Friday’s close.
Thank you very much, BB. I will be paying attention.
Yes, raf, you are sick, so please go breathe on Pyr. An infection like that might save him.
Oh I’m on board this train with shares and options, riding to the promised land.
Speaking of trains I’m on one at the moment and it’s too bumpy for me to find a link to the great song running through my mind.
I think the shorts have their attack all lined up for Monday morning. The hit pieces and the bear raid will hit simultaneously, They will do whatever they can to hold back the tsunami. Several articles will come out saying the slock is overvalued, it already ran up, peak sales $2-3 billion, now they have to execute and that’s gonna take a long long time, etc. They might achieve a modest selloff hitting stop losses and might even get a sharp spikes down but I do not believe it will last long and that tsunami will come.
I might add that, again as I understand it, the approximately 25% RRR does not mean simply that there were 25% fewer events in the treatment arm versus placebo, because the PE was in fact time to first event and the calculation is more complicated than a simple numeric relationship, and the actual calculation is beyond my pay grade.
Finally, credit should go to TTE and others who explained this patiently and repeatedly. I hope my understanding does not betray their explanations.
