I wouldn't conflate "reaffirmed their commitment to X-22" with any specific timeframe. Especially when trying to put together partners for clinical research and even getting through the governmental red tape to even apply to the FDA. X-22 is just one more 'poker in the fire' and I also remain long term bullish on this stock and in my opinion the time lapse is appropriate.
I think that's everybody's frustration here. Why is everything so painstakingly slow?? I get that there is red tape and the FDA is a large, slow moving animal with saddled with a god awful approval process. But enough is enough....
