The US rights to this technology are held by DUSA Pharmaceuticals based in
up-state N.Y. Currently they are conducting Phase III trials for AK's at
our site and many others. Also are looking at other indications, but
clearly AK's will lead the others to market.

I believe you can access ALA directly from somebody like Sigma and mix it
yourself in something like Glaxal or Schering base. There are other
molecules under patent and under investigation but if you are into "Do it
yourself projects" maybe KC can dig a price out of his catalogue.
