Dendreon (DNDN) 18% following earnings. As the launch of Provenge is in its early stages, I doubt it was the actual eps # that is causing this, rather some color on the intermediate term future of the launch. Haven't looked under the hood.

Cheers, Tuck

Re: GENT

In February, GENT received an initial payment of EUR 5.11M ($7.0M) from Sigma-Tau in connection with amending the existing license and supply agreement to include the commercialization of the prevention of Defibrotide in North America, Central America and South America.

As of March 31, its cash position was about 4x its cash as of Dec.31.<g>

ZGEN almost 85% on takeover by BMY; Cerus (CERS) ~16% on speculation it can play in the blood purification market by taking XMRV out of the supply. XMRV a putative cause of chronic fatigue syndrome. The question, can the competition also do this? I have no answer, don't follow the company.
