What Companies do you think Cox is talking to with respect to a potential partnership in the US for Atryn? Assuming Atryn gets approval in the US wouldn't it make the most economic sense for a potential partner to just purchase all of GTCB ($2-4/pps) vs. some type of upfront money ($20-50 million) and profit sharing? I'm a little surprised with the share price lagging that no one has thrown out a $2-4 takeover offer.
<<From Dr. Cox’s remarks on the 2Q07 CC (emphasis added):>>........
<< large, well financed, commercial partner is an important objective for GTC to achieve the market presence and opportunity which we believe ATryn represents, and I look forward to updating you on our progress.>>
Dew et all,
not that much forecast value; but at which stage was partnering in Europe announced? Was it end of phase II or just before/after filing?
What are the assets both for partner as well for the company?
