I assure you I'm not trying to get all conspiracy theory-ee.
If the research lab gets the required funding, goes to human trials, is there a way to move forward beyond that without the involvement of an American pharmaceutical company? Seriously asking, for anyone who might have an answer.

I actually remember this. The wife and I had a good chat about the injustice of how certain discoveries are never moved forward for lack of funding, lack of interest, or lack of being able to convert to large scale profitable commercialization. Gotta make you wonder how many legit health improvements actually exist that have stagnated and are now tucked away.
