Doing it our way now: the approach this company pioneered is becoming the market's way
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2016 call → NOWe need answer YES or NO based on transcript. Need determine if management describes that their way is being adopted/copied by others. Let's examine transcript. Management talks about CUDC-907, CA170, Erivedge. They mention CA170 is first orally administered small molecule checkpoint antagonist. They note several companies have announced new programs targeting checkpoint proteins, however all employ monoclonal antibody biologics administered intravenously. CA170 establishes new class using oral administration. They expect CA170 to become world's first orally administered checkpoint targeting immunooncology drug candidate to enter clinic. This is about being first, not others adopting. No mention of others copying. They mention immunooncology treatment paradigm exciting, but not that others are following their approach. They mention Erivedge studies by Roche. No. Question asks: Does management describe that the way this company does things is now being adopted, copied, or moved toward by others? No. They claim first, but no others following. Answer NO.
