From our humble beginnings as an online support group just over a decade ago, we have emerged as the leader in colon cancer awareness, education, research and advocacy initiatives. As I reflect upon the past year, I am proud of what we have accomplished and inspired by those who, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, never give up hope. It is this hope that motivated us to take a good, hard look at who we really are and where we are going as an organization. And, after much thought and reflection, we made some changes. We are confident that our newly crafted mission, vision and values statements reflect a new era for the Colon Cancer Alliance Ð one of optimism, tenacity and confidence. However, what brings me the greatest joy is realizing that in some ways we havenÕt changed at all. What drives us now is exactly the same as what it was over ten years ago Ð providing a voice to individuals affected by colon cancer. I am extremely proud to present our 2011 Annual Report. In the following pages, weÕve highlighted our numerous accomplishments over the last year. Our existing programs have experienced dramatic growth, particularly national Dress in Blue Day, the Undy 5000, and the Blue Note Fund. We also launched exciting new programs including our Clinical Trial Matching Service, which connects patients with ground-breaking research based on their diagnosis and stage of disease. As we enter into a new year, prevention of colon cancer remains a major component of our mission. WeÕll continue working with legislators, researchers, regulators, prevention specialists, the business community, the medical community and the media to bring about change. WeÕll continue our advocacy efforts to ensure the voice of the colon cancer community is being heard loud and clear by all branches of government. Most importantly, in 2012, weÕll continue working with a team of dedicated employees, our growing network of volunteers, and our generous sponsors to find new ways to bring about change in the way people talk about colon cancer. Best wishes, Andrew Spiegel Chief Executive Officer Colon Cancer Alliance C OLON CANCER ALLIANCE 2011 3 EDUCATION AND C OMMUNITY ENGA GEMENT NATIONAL C O LORECTAL CANCER AWARENESS MONTH Salix Pharmaceuticals employees participate in Dress in Blue Day 2011. Staff were encouraged to get involved by wearing blue, learning the risk factors, and talking with others about colon cancer. In March, we celebrated a record-breaking Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Participation reached an all-time high as more companies, organizations and individuals than ever before rolled up their sleeves to fight this disease and raise awareness in their communities through educational and fundraising events. Our army of Voices volunteers across the country worked tirelessly, hosting events, distributing materials and enlisting the help of community leaders in elevating the profile of colon cancer. CEO Andrew Spiegel was joined by Colon Cancer Alliance staff, volunteers, and Board Members in Times Square to ring the NASDAQ closing bell on March 1, 2011. We kicked off the month in New York City, where our CEO, Andrew Spiegel, had the honor of ringing the NASDAQ closing bell on March 1. In Times Square, our animated public service announcement, ÒScreen My Colon!Ó played on the NASDAQ screen for a full hour before and after the closing, catching the attention of the bustling crowd below. 4 COLON CANCER ALLIANCE 2011 The Dress in Blue Day program was a fantastic success again this year. Annually, on the first Friday in March, we encourage individuals, healthcare providers, businesses and community groups across the country to wear blue and talk to each other about the importance of colon cancer screenings. Through our website, we provided participants with awareness and educational merchandise, free downloads and outreach materials. These resources helped participants to launch screening and awareness initiatives as well as raise funds to help eradicate colon cancer. The CCA thanks Genentech for their sponsorship of the Dress in Blue Day program, celebrating colon cancer survivors and screening. ÒOn behalf of Ethicon Endo-Surgery and the Colon Cancer Alliance, we would like to thank everyone who showed their support. Together, we can do wonderful things and we hope this will be the start of a new EES tradition.Ó On March 29, 2011, employees were seen breaking the dress code throughout Ethicon Endo-Surgery (EES) hallways. By donating $5 to the CCA, they had the privilege of wearing blue jeans to work that day, raising a total of $2,300. The CCA garnered national media attention in March, being featured on the Profiles Series, hosted by Lou Gossett, Jr. Additionally, we partnered with CBS HealthWatchª, Ethicon Endo-Surgery (EES), and the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons (ASCRS) to host a live, interactive colon cancer awareness webcast moderated by Travis Stork of ÒThe DoctorsÓ and featuring Katie Couric and a panel of ASCRS experts. We also made awareness fashionable this year by teaming up with renowned fashion designer and colon cancer survivor Carmen Marc Valvo, who created a limited edition CCA t-shirt and donated a gown from his Black Label collection. Proceeds from both benefited CCA awareness and patient programs. Valvo further demonstrated his commitment to our mission by accepting a position on our Board of Directors. March saw the expansion of our community screening efforts through our partnership with Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, the makers of Dulcolax¨. Specially marked packages of the product sold in more than 14,000 Walmart locations and other major retailers, with a portion of the sales supporting local screening programs. Dress in Blue Day 2011 was sponsored by Genentech. For Dress in Blue Day, Carmen Marc Valvo designed a limited edition ladiesÕ t-shirt for the CCA.

  • Speciality Players Define M&A As Big Pharma Seeks Focus
    May 26, 2015 Speciality players define M&A as big pharma seeks focus Jonathan Gardner Forget megamergers. For half a decade the daring deals in the pharma space have been made primarily by the speciality players. Endo International’s move on Par Pharmaceutical last week shows how this peer group has defined M&A since 2009, when Pfizer and Merck & Co made the last major acquisitions of companies regarded as traditional big pharmas, those of Wyeth and Schering-Plough respectively. One company alone, Actavis, has been responsible for nearly a third of the value of the top 25 deals in this time, transforming itself from a respectably sized generics company into the world’s second-biggest seller of skin and eye disease drugs (see table below). Tax pressure To be sure, big pharma companies have been active acquirers, but their activities have been confined primarily to achievable bolt-on transactions to bring in interesting developmental assets or promising business lines, not the megamergers that tend to grab headlines. Two deals proposed and then abandoned last year might have changed this picture substantially and moved nearly $150bn onto the side of big pharma. AstraZeneca successfully fought off Pfizer, however, and AbbVie had a near-miss with its takeout of Shire – scuttled because of changes to US tax rules. In fact it was speciality companies rather than pharma giants that wrung most of the value from tax deals before laws making inversions much less appealing were enacted. Before Actavis became the world’s 19th biggest seller of prescription drugs, and on its way to a top 10 ranking, it was known as Watson Pharmaceuticals.
