Hopefully Ms. Powers has progressed past the “All Big Pharma brings to the table is a checkbook” mentality.

While maintaining a plausible capacity for going it alone is a reasonable negotiating strategy, the reality is that you do not want to be like the Dwarf band of adventurers in The Hobbit who did not want to share out the great treasure with their neighbors. It is better to have 50% of huge riches now than to struggle another 5 years for 100% of it all, or if things when as they did for DNDN, 100 % of nothing.

Partnering (with real revenues not pay your own way) or accepting a buyout on reasonable terms is indeed what is best for NWBO shareholders and especially for GBM patients who actually do not have the time to live up to that name.
