Wernaaa, EXACTLY. Btw partnering is a PROCESS. Starts with talking to many, then keep some (short list) then pick at least one, do whatever is needed to bring a preliminary contract into a contract and then sign.
This Q/CC (past Friday) they said they were ALREADY AGAIN TESTING ON HUMANS. That means they tuned the test (they wrote so) and since they said before NO OTHER CANCERS without a partner we must assume it is AGAIN Ovarian.
So if this is a SECOND Ovarian (and given the results last time were near 100%) there is no need to run the proof of concept again. BUT they MUST run a test with that PROTOTYPE KIT they said they were going to make to show the partner (hence there statement last week that the results will be needed for partnering).
I guess that is the step going on now. But if you would say that PPHM is VAGUE on the topic, I agree because more clear language would be better.
Then with Ronin's letter I would be surprised that in the hostile situation Ronin created PPHM will stick to STRICTLY MINIMUM REQUIRED LEGAL NEEDED communications.
