The rosiptor Phase 3 LEADERSHIP trial in Interstitial Cystitis (IC)/ Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS) remains on track for top-line results in 3Q18, most likely in July. 12wk trial was completed in Feb 2018. We expect a positive outcome based on Phase 2 data. Mgmt plans to revisit Phase 3 design w/ FDA prior to initiation of a planned second Phase 3 trial, which we believe may begin around YE18. Patient screening in a Phase 2 trial of rosiptor in Chronic Prostatitis (CP/ CPPS) is underway. Reiterate BUY. We do not believe the stock adequately reflects value of rosiptor program in BPS/IC."

Quentin Clemens, chief of the Division of Neurourology and Pelvic Reconstruction, urology director for female pelvic medicine and professor of urology at the University of Michigan.
