PPHM is in no pumping mode and has been for awhile.
FDA does not like pumping, imo.
All business...
BTD? Could allow them to go alone, but partners would be banging the door down to deal or even start making buyout offers.
Bavi on the mkt in 18 mnths (with a partner) who knows how long if PPHM tried it alone? another year, 18 mnths?
WIN-WIN to partner if they have BTD. Less risk for the partner, more money for PPHM up front and in royalties.
Phase III alone? Not a chance with BTD or without....
