Ha ha TopleRoad, that’s a good oneI If anyone thought the SAP was a ginormous task, it’s NOTHING compared to a BLA filing. IF Northwest Bio isn’t bought out or agrees to a partnership, they will have to hire consultants and contract that out, as it is WAY beyond their competence. It takes a dedicated and experienced team 3-6 months or more to file a BLA, but preparations (that Northwest is doing now) usually begin 12-18 months before. I wouldn’t even want to imagine how long it would take Northwest. . . .
