Agree with this. The lack of requirement for a phase III is very positive. In regards to funding, I don't suspect that to be an issue. For me it is all about whether the precision technology can be replicated in humans. There are plenty of technologies out there which work great in mice but can be hard to replicate in humans with safety being the key concern. We don't know how the human immune system will react, nor we do we know about the potential of anti-drug antibodies for this molecule and the impact of them.
A lot resides on the results of the phase I, if negative, will probably set the company back a couple of years, if positive, I honestly believe the company will be utterly transformed.
What I don't know much about is the prospect of another company aquiring the rights to their technology or buying the company out completely. I can't see why big pharma would want such a competitior if the tech works
