Hi Zylo re your Agile comment is this re 25th Oct RNS
We are now considering how we might make use of the UK government's AGILE clinical trial platform, or other equivalent programmes, to providing funding and support for Phase 1 trials with SDC-1801 for Covid-19 applications and potentially fast-track its development. The timing and design of these clinical trials will be determined following consultations with experts in the field.
It is evident that that there is still a clear need for new therapies to treat severe respiratory inflammation arising from viral infections such as Covid-19 despite the success of the UK vaccination programme and the availability of vaccines around the world. With TYK2 acknowledged as a key therapeutic target for severe Covid-19 in an article published in December 2020 in the leading scientific journal, Nature*, we believe that SDC-1801 could have a role to play in this area in the future and we look forward to updating shareholders on further progress.
Anyone know what alternative programmes are? Is that sub licensing? Royalties etc?
Odd fact but the founder of Nature journal is buried about 100m from where I'm sat.
Anyhow back to the point ...the tweets....the shake...the ipr patent updates...737 in use with AZ via Sierra...submarine patent....and the pill isn't as effective as hoped ...so maybe a capsule that when a submarine patent breaks ground any pharma that uses the outlined findings will have a very very hard time to prove any future released 'treatments' are their own!
Bish bash bosh.
