Our friendly neighborhood cancer curer, Dendreon (love the light blue paint, hate the brick color), is applying for FDA approval to start marketing its prostate cancer drug, "Provenge". According to the Puget Sound Business Journal (you gotsta register!), a study found that substantially more patients treated with Provenge were alive three years after receiving the treatment than a group that received a placebo. The treatment is apparently safe and causes few side effects. Is there a downside here? Keep at it Dendreonites!
