I believe it was a point hence why GSK /SO not take on board. Coming close to a 4 year delay now.
To which compound are you referring to as generic?
If it is Cisplatin it now totally irrelevant. Far too much toxicity. Done and dusted.
I would hazard a well educated guess, that this was done on the back bone of sierra possible commercialisation and patent. Maintains the value of cisplatin if combo patent on success.
Michelle Garrett much involved at later stages of combination therapies involved with 737 and platinum based therapies certainly not one of them. Also an advisor to SO. Are you aware of that? MG involved from day 1 of development of CHK1 inhibitors. So much work she has undertaken. Also at later stage Triparna Sen.
I have posted links many times before.
MG never entered in to any platinum based chemo therapy investigations in combo with 737.
'So as I understand it, it’s dusting down an old product for which the patent has expired and novating the patent as a combo. As a result - the combo becomes a serious revenue earner.
Gemcitabine is a generic chemo and proved good results in stage 2 trials with 737 alone.'
I never mentioned gemcitabine, or to be precise LDG in combo.
Lack of detail here to give your comment any credibility.
Look forward to your views on this
Preclinical in combo in SCLC way above anything else available at the moment, ie LDG 737 and a programmed death inhibitor which can be PD-1 or PD-L1 I take it you understand the difference.
So what is this dusted down compound you refer to with patent expired?
If it is gemcitabine then you have well and truly missed my point. I merely referred to combo involving Cisplatin. indeed 737, cisplatin and LDG were involved at some stage. The point I were making relates to the trial of 737 in combo with Cisplatin.
SRA737 as a mono therapy is not a money spinner from a commercial point of view. Basically on how a CHK1 inhibitor works.
That is the point and a giant enormous one at that.
