They had plenty of time for negotiations, Garnick and company knew months ago they were getting p3 approval. Look at PD1, already in p3 trial, why can those guys move so quickly. There is no excuse for these delays, it is high time for some heads in management to roll.
I got roped into this train wreck almost 10 years ago. My illogical was believing that PPHM was going to partner based on SK saying we are in talks over and over again. So when you say "these things take time", how much time? I'm not immortal.
P.S. If front-line was not a flop we would either have a partner or be north of $5/share. This is not rocket science.
