Valentis, located in
Burlingame, CA, has a great deal going on in the form of products and
corporate alliances, but only their Phase II trial for their lead drug
Deltavasc (VLTS-589) is responsible for their recent increase in stock
price. The company will release top-line data on this Phase II trial at
the end of September. We will focus this issue almost exclusively on the
Deltavasc product since it is the driver of the company’s valuation. |
 |
|
| Deltavasc is gene therapy.
This comes with all the baggage that any gene therapy drug comes with.
However, there are important differences that separate Deltavasc from
other types of gene therapy. |
