CancerVax's Efforts to Develop Cuban Cancer Drugs Detailed

The San Diego Union-Tribune today published a good account of CancerVax Corporation's three-year effort to obtain an OFAC license to complete the clinical development of three experimental cancer drugs that were developed in Cuba (see previous article in International Trade Law News).

The article notes that CancerVax "had to persuade and negotiate amid mounting hostilities between the Bush administration and Cuban dictator Fidel Castro" and "hired savvy Washington, D.C., lobbyists, wooed members of Congress and recruited leading cancer researchers to endorse the cause." The complete article can be found at the following link:
