Interesting stuff, Matt! I like the prospect of an 8 week duration. That would make administration so much easier, no injections and hopefully a much more controlled release. I would prefer to not need Interferon at all, but there are parts of this planet where it may be the only option. I wonder if this administered by patch or cream? It will be interesting to learn more about this. Thanks for the link!
