Did someone say "sell the spread"? If so who?

If it was said is it on tape as an earlier post indicated?

I'm kind of new to how sales works but if that was said does it imply that salespeople should sell how much doctors can make as opposed to the merits of using Provenge against other choices? This is people's health we are talking about and although Provenge might be a good choice that is a horrible thing to say if it was said. It sounds inhumane. It sounds unlawful too. If it was said and if it is on tape was it turned over?

It was on tape, but we it got recorded over. We used the same tape, recording you, when you were talking to the OIG. Darn, hate it when that happens.

lol weird. i don't work at dendreon. that's a weird post. seems like dndn management is now posting here or it's some kind of stupid joke defending this indefensible management.
 






Agree with last reply. Dendreon Communication and Marketing folks have nothing else to do except with interfereing with Cafepharma message Board.

Ask for selling the spread, Oh well, if you can tell me how exactly Provenge works then we will sell the science. The truth is, Provenge works for some folks and Physician's make great money, around 6K for 3 infusion. marriage made in haven. Of course selling the spread is a routine. What else can sales reps sale? Science? What new peer reviewed paper is out there. What new scientific evidence is out there? Commercial team has always been pushing us to sell the spread, ASP plus 6.

Was it inappropriate to say it? Unlawful? Immoral?
 






Of course it is. It is inappropriate and against every guidelines that I know of but who is going to say and do anything about it. I will loose my job, I have kids and need the job. They got rid of BW, former Compliance Officer, he was a Harvard Graduate lawyer with years of experience. If they can do that to him, we don't stand a chance. This place is so corrupt that I dont know where to begin.

You're funny. You can't lose the job but you're hoping there are indictments. I guess they will still need salespeople.

BW is one of the people Feds need to talk to under oath.

I sure hope you have told the Feds everything you know. You seem to know a lot and though I doubt you are one of the people they sought out to speak to I hope you called the special agent in charge. There has to be justice for the atrocities committed.
 












Are you kidding, the spread is only the tip of the iceberg and the lesser of the most egregious crimes.
many other crimes at ad boards, industry meetings, patient assist programs, distribution etc. sad for patients but the truth be told the people at this company are the devil

ok another person corroborating this place is criminal. have you spoken to federal agents? if not you need to call FBI office in Seattle and let them know all you know. apparently there is a special agent in charge and it is your civic duty if you know of crimes to report them to authorities.
 






Please contact the Special Agent in Charge, Seattle FBI Office with any information. Your collaboration/corroboration is greatly appreciated.

I have a question. To those on the Dendreon sales team, has Peggy or Rob even said that they were part of the oncology team at Genentech? I heard this a few times recently and find is hard to believe. Rituxan was launched in 1997. Both had left Genentech years prior, and never worked on any of the oncology brands. That is a fact. Please confirm if you heard either of them state this. HR wants to know.

No. They weren't. I'm speaking as an ex GNE employee.
 






























Conducting an investigation on cafepharma? This will definitely hold up in court.

The FBi isn't investigating on cafe pharma. That post sounded like a privalte civil suit investigator. In any case you may want to read this story from 2009.


"It looks as if CafePharma is getting another 15 minutes of fame. A federal judge will allow anonymous postings on the site's forum to remain as evidence in a suit against Schering-Plough. That decision is sure to reignite the brouhaha over Vytorin and the controversial Enhance study.

Schering and its Vytorin partner Merck delayed releasing the Enhance results for some time, and then felt a major backdraft as the data showed Vytorin--a combo of Zocor (simvastatin) and Zetia--to be no more effective at staving off atherosclerosis than Zocor was alone. Some investors sued, saying they were misled; among the evidence they submitted were CafePharma postings that suggest Schering execs knew Enhance had failed--and knew long before the study results were made public."
