| The approval marks a new class of "protein-bound particle" drugs, now made
possible by ABI's proprietary
nanoparticle albumin-bound (nabT) technology. Abraxane is the first in this
new class of drugs.

I love being able to research stuff like this; I'll never forget that
Abraxane is a nanoparticle albumin-bound drug; thus NAB paclitaxel !!! (Doc
was probably just being a show-off with the new abbr; probably just learned
it and has been using the term all day long to stump everyone).... Ha ha ha!
Thanks for the challenge
