Re: What did JS et al at Geron, learn about the science during the Janssen saga?

Thanks for the thoughtful summary. We will learn more about efficacy as the results of IMbark and IMerge become better known beginning with the release of abstracts tomorrow and through ASH, and the efficacy we already know of from the earlier trials, especially the Mayo Pilot, still speaks loudly t...

Re: Looking at EHA presentation a little more closely

biopearl, I share your astonishment. It is beyond my comprehension that the number of patients benefitting in the MDS trial isn't the real headline from the standpoint of a potential treatment. It's a fact that high transfusion burdens lead to poor outcomes. All the evidence so far is that Imetelsta...

Re: Looking at EHA presentation a little more closely

Hi biopearl, I'm traveling and only have a second to post, but my thoughts run parallel to yours.

Rooting for you and John and for happiness for your family became second natur...

Re: Annual Meeting

Thanks for the nice comments- and for bringing my Annual Report post over here. In thinking the experience over the last few days, I really think Dr. Scarlett's answer to a question in the taped Q&A answer session that they need to get to "2nd Base" first was purposeful. He clarified that right away...

Re: Geron Announces Initiation Phase 2/3 Clinical Trial of Imetelstat in MDS and ODD designation for MDS

The table is set. It's kind of amazing that everything is coming together at a moment when the market is selling off. I've been in Geron for years, and it's taken amazing patience to wait for the opportunity the company now has. Some investors are just coming to Geron now, and they have no idea how ...
