Talk:Dendreon

message: Dendreon's stock plunged today even after the news of the vaccine was out.  
Nasdaq refused to review the transaction and to let it stand even though it seems to be some sort of error. 
Is this worthy of a new section or at least mentioning? KJS77 01:28, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stock Plunge 

message: Couple of issues about selection bias- if you find a bunch of borderline
stuff you can make a big deal out of it but there are a lot of interesting
things that happened here.
Also, the perceived threats against cancer researchers is noteworthy within
science but seems to come up in business quite often. Is there a page on "threats
in science in business" on wiki?

Hopefully everyone will migrate. I'm intending to revert to my edits
which one other person had deleted en masse. Upon further discussion and research,
it appears I should have marked the whole article as I now have and left out
the editorial comments which provoked the original delete. Given the active discussion
header warns the reader about various texts, my eariler text seems suitable.
The major concern, copy right violations often cited by the other participant
simply did not seem to have any merit and can be edited in isolation without disturbing
the larger article. No one unfamiliar with the material has yet shown up who 
is willing to read references and only a few people have contributed material recently.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nerdseeksblonde (talk • contribs) 01:59, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Active Discussion 

message: It looks like someone manually reverted my edits that someone else
deleted en masse. While I am generally happy, there are a few things
I did note, largely that the selection did miss a few notable things.
That is, the earlier Dendreon patent related to "moderately well differentiated tumours" doesn't seem to appear. This is important to list in an UNBIASED summary of their IP especially because it may relate to FDA objections. The clinical data was confusing and MOA issues were a significant part of the discussion. In fact, Dendreon now has a patent related to natural killer cells possibly relevant to Provenge. While I can't add much opinion within OR constrtaints, there is a clear evolution in their MOA attitudes and this was relevant to the sections I was putting together. 
So, if I can get the IP section back to where it was, the re-inclusion of the "moderately well differentiated tumour" patent along with the recent NK patent ( that starts to suggest the role of antigen independent processes ) should make an interesting LIST for READERS who wish to use the encyclopedia as a starting point for their own original researach.

replies: text: it would probably help if you pointed to a specific diff from the history or something so that everyone knows what you're talking about.  —Chris Capoccia  T⁄C 04:35, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

text: Presumably whoever made the edits knew what was going on. Last I looked, Shubinator was deleting everything without knowing the material and what is left is not real clear and generally company-favorable. While this does seem to be a success-story among a string of immunotherapy failures, that makes it all the more important for perspective to be available to the reader- this is accomplished with a rich set of facts properly qualified and attributed, not a list of supportive facts stated with inappropriate confidence. The edit history doesnt look like anyone did much lately. Nerdseeksblonde (talk) 07:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is going on with this page?  

message: why is this article so long?  Dendreon is a relatively insignificant company developing an interesting product line and could be considered notable because of the nature of their products.  But come on.  This article is twice as long as those for either Amgen or Genentech, companies roughly in the same space, but infinitely more notable.  This article seems to have been written or heavily edited by an insider, which is not bad on the face of it, but perhaps that person is more impressed with the Provenge story than that story is worth.  I would cut it down to a description of the company, pipeline, brief outline of the technology with links to other Wiki articles on immunology and cancer, then maybe a paragraph on the regulatory history of Provenge.  Cut the article down to about 30% of its current length.  The IP section could easily go.  If I want to know what patents a company has, Wikipedia is the last place I would look.Desoto10 (talk) 04:18, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia has a page about reasoning that "other stuff exists" or " other crap exists." Maybe the DNA and AMGN pages should be longer or more pages created. I tried to make this article even longer and was hoping for a content-knowledgable person to edit largely to document or edit my original research as I'd been following them for a while. Depending on what is left in the article, you can see a lot of interesting stuff about the FDA protests, the issues with trials, MOA issues, etc. Personally I'm interested now in seeing how this really works or if in fact as the FDA panel suggestes the placebo could be causing harm to patients. Immunotherapy has been tried in many formss for quite a while, there are some "firsts" here like IIRC first PHause III that seemed to work etc ( I am not big on these types of records but it may be in aricle and Mitch was making some comments along these lines LOL) Nerdseeksblonde (talk) 12:01, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I agree, I saw this COI back when he posted to my talk page as an IP. Unless I'm mistaken, all of his Dendreon edits have been reverted...could you provide diffs showing info he added that's still in the article? Shubinator (talk) 03:49, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
