I have been long over four years. Pls say again what happens if mnkd does not maintain the one dollar minimum. and your thoughts on what effect does the possible death of mnkd (which i do not believe will happen, but that's just me), on endo's prescribing afrezza? The possible death of MNKD? After putting $2.5B into this and being the most snake bit company I have ever seen including losing Al Mann in the processes, I don't think the death of MNKD is happening. After more than a dozen years we are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We have seen the death of afrezza after SNY dropped it and their sales reps quickly spread the word afrezza was being pulled and scripts dried up.
Anyone with a lick of sense knows the friends of Al Mann are not going to give up now when things are finally starting to turn. The ADA2018 most talked about impact to diabetes management was afrezza and Dr. Kendall's reframing of the Affitiny-1 with the STAT pilot finding's stating A1c 8 to 6.8 with no additional hypos. Thats a game changer. The Baltimore study is wrapping up next month and I expect to see great results for the T2s. I suspect afrezza is living rent free in the heads of some BP execs including Ollie Brandicourt.
Steve has one job, get the money at the best price. He has several options but as a last gasp if the lights were really being turned off and which will not be necessary is a PIPE to existing share holders, the friends of Al. This group will little effort would provide $50M and I think Mike has most of their emails.
Mike has a single focus, close some deals. After 18 months he should be getting close.
Dr. Kendall has one primary job, get afrezza as the standard of care for both T1 and T2s.
Sayhey, have you actually seen this happen? I would much rather by shares directly from the company if possible. |

Delisting? Wow, this guy just doesn't give up trying to spread FUD. yep, they arrived. They have been having fun with us. My fun with them curtailed by morality and the moderators. Like a movie, the return of the zombies. Amazing people want to take down the worlds best mealtime insulin for fun and profit. I am a terrible human being, so I hope their loved ones all become insulin dependent diabetics. Then they can use their brains on that. |

Thank you for the answer to my first question. But, I'm still awaiting your thoughts about how endo's willingness to write afrezza scripts is influenced by the company's cash position and fears of mnkd folding.

Adventuresome: I recently had a discussion regarding Afrezza with my endo and can assure you that the state of MNKD was the furthest thing from her mind. She could care less about your concerns. Thank you.

Here is what I think I have learned. pre-authorizations, cost endo's money, staff time, dealing with the paper work. Additionally, the offices get calls from the insurers. The insurers trying to meet the bonus criteria from big Pharma, call endo's that are not prescribing the preferred, money back insulin to pressure them. It is a medical system. (Everything I believed as a child was a lie.) |

How many doctors do you think would spend any time to research the pharmaceutical company that manufactures the drugs they prescribe? Those who have heard of Afrezza probably wouldn't even be able to tell you the company that makes it!

Everyone of them that holds MNKD stock! I suspect that more than a few docs have been told by Big Pharma reps that MNKD is about to go Bankrupt! Why even those ProBoard Pumpers have been saying so! (sarcasm) |

But, I'm still awaiting your thoughts about how endo's willingness to write afrezza scripts is influenced by the company's cash position and fears of mnkd folding. I believe a doctor would be hesitant to invest the time in starting patients on a new treatment if they heard/thought the company was going under and the product was being discontinued. Just look at what happened to scripts after Sanofi dumped and ran. |

Regarding Prior Authorization: It is a real headache. I am currently on two drugs that require it. I get a script at my annual check-up that is good for 4 refills throughout the year. I must get PA yearly, even though I have been on the drugs for many years. It generally takes 2-3 calls to get it done. My daughter is allergic to all antibiotics. The struggle to get synthetic and experimental drugs was a nightmare. Between Black Box warnings and PA, I think many people would just throw their hands in the air and not bother fighting the system.
