Hi Edie and all, Here is the 1-800 # .... and a # for outside US.... Neuroimmunophilin Ligands – Parkinson’s Disease Guilford has partnered the neuroimmunophilin program for nerve regeneration in neurological disorders with Amgen, Inc. Amgen is responsible for all clinical trials. This program includes the prototype compound GPI-1046 and the clinical lead compound, NIL-A. The initial disease target is Parkinson’s disease. Amgen has completed Phase I testing and Guilford anticipates that Phase II development will proceed in Parkinson’s patients in the second half of 2000.
