Soon I will ask friends and relatives to write and email the three companies involved in the TNX-901 legal battle to express their outrage and frustration. I encourage you to urge your friends and relatives to do the same.
Below is company contact information. But first, quotes from Hugh Sampson and a Tanox spokeperson from:

- "We were ready to start in January," said Hugh Sampson of New York's Mount Sinai School of Medicine. "We received a letter [from the companies] that we had to stop. We are not happy about it, but that's what we know."
- Michelle DeSantis, a spokeswoman with Tanox, ... is hopeful the litigation "won't get caught up for years." "I do feel we will get some pressure" from patients, Ms. DeSantis said.
