GTC Biotherapeutics (fka GTCB)

[biopearl]

Dew, I find this a very interesting post. Can you estimate how many units of collected human plasma would be required for a therapeutic dose? I assume out goat A1AT is a "biosimilar" not a bioequivalent. None the less one would think Kamada would be very interested in GTCBs technology as a way to provide pure, high quality product that did not require human plasma to produce. The common contact with the Alpha 1 Foundation is interesting and one would think they in particular would try to find a way to build a bridge between the two companies, to support GTCBs ongoing efforts. (Of course I thought the same thing about Bill Gates and Gtcb's dormant/read dead, malaria vaccine...) If the goat A1AT were a bioequivalent wouldn't that be a good thing (the planned half life issues I suppose would make that impossible)? My already shrunken 'nads are now the size of raisens but I would still buy more if I could. Regards to all, bp
