jessellivermore is quite right—GTC will pick its spots judiciously. GTC does not need to go head-to-head with CHO-cell manufacturers will nilly because there are plenty of cases where drugs either can’t be made in CHO cells or can’t be made in CHO cells economically. FVIIa is an example of the latter.

>…the company has stated it plans on entering Phase 1 in 2008 for the CD137 mAb. Got that? Next year they're putting their first mAb in the clinic. mAbs are typically made in CHO cells.<

The CD137 program is an exception. In general, it will not be GTC’s business model to pursue totally new compounds. But you already knew that.
