i'm all for this and think it's great news. maybe recknor went to NP and said, "we need more horsepower to get the BLA done in time" who knows. remember, recknor's background is a practicing MD - not a BLA guy.

at the end of the day, anything that gets us closer to the market, is good, by hook or crook. screw the new trials, white papers, and especially the 13D group back and forth, etc.

spending money on this guy getting our BLA done, so that we can sell our drug finally - that's worth it.
