Biotechs, it is the rate of increase that caught everyone's attention, not the absolute price, per se.

Surely there is folks working against Ariad. AF has an agenda (with other conspirators) to influence the SP his/their direction. Pattern is obvious -as Ariad SP rises the agenda to take it down begins. AF cannot find material to take it down via the science, so Plan B is attack on price gouging. Once we get past this issue, Plan C will arise.

We should all disregard all this chatter. The NEW kid on the block are the PD1 drugs from Merck, Novartis and Bristol.

They cost around $12k a month and are hailed as miracles in science. What they really have shown to accomplish is extending OS by a whopping 4 months greater than Chemo.

Pona is now reporting that around 80% of patients are living close to 5 years without remission after failing two to three other regimes.

End of Friggin story.
