My guess is that they already have this in place and with approval will hit the ground running. Also, I went to their Careers Site and didn't see any specific openings for Sales Reps! ;)

I don't want to see them take on an internal sales force - too much infrastructure, too much cost in the infancy of Marqibo's life cycle.

IM thinking it wont be necessary

Uptake and achievement of peak sales is going to be very quick. This is a small group of academic physicians who treat these ALL patients. Very easy to reach and also very willing to use the latest approved drugs, with no concern for price. I expect peak sales within 1.5 years of launch. That means $65-100 million in sales in 2014.
