Pain Therapeutics Shares Soar on Pact
See story here. King will make an upfront payment of $150 M for Remoxy. I need to do some fact-checking, but this sounds like it could be the largest upfront fee for a Phase 2 product ever. The deal presents a bit of conundrum to Pain Therapeutics investors, who must add the recent poor judgment of King (see my other posts on King’s settlement over Medicaid fraud charges) into the risk equation. The large upfront suggests that Pain Therapeutics certainly has.
