I think what I'm reading in this press release is that this is not genistein, but some other substance that is "new and improved"! Could still be a derivative, though.

Cool. What drew my suspicion was they started out using the "compound" on the G551D mutation. Just google up Genistein Cystic Fibrosis and you will see several hits of studies showing how Genistein corrected the CFTR, specifically the G551D mutation. Here is just one link:

If this does indeed turn out to be based on Genistein (who knows, maybe not), or something else natural (like turmeric). A company could get a basic substance that is readily available now via supplements, maybe refine it more, and then possibly charge a huge amount for the "drug". Where as someone could spend 30-50 bucks a month on a large dose supplement of the same thing, get similar if not the same exact results, and not have the $3000 dollar price tag.
Of course this is all just speculation, and my concerns could be totally unfounded. I just get a tad suspicious when something natural has shown these results in the past, then a drug company comes out with a "new compound", and "promising new drug" that seems to do the same thing. Never mind me, I'm just Mr. Suspicious.

It seems just for that particular substance, a U.S. patent was issued. That particular link does not supply any company information. So I went to the main page and just searched for Geninstein Cystic Fibrosis and I got a ton of hits. I don't have the time due to having to get ready for work, but the main U.S. patent page has a search function as well. I'd be curious what it turns up.
