IT HAS BEEN A TREMENDOUS YEAR ON MANY FRONTS. WE MADE SUBSTANTIAL ADVANCES IN THE CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT OF OUR NOVEL SMALL PROTEINS, DX-88 AND DX-890. WE ENTERED INTO NEW REVENUE-GENERATING LICENSING AGREEMENTS AND DRUG DEVELOPMENT COLLABORATIONS THAT HIGHLIGHT OUR SUPERIOR ANTIBODY DISCOVERY CAPABILITIES. WE STREAMLINED OPERATIONS AND RAISED CAPITAL, ALLOWING US TO COMMIT FULL ATTENTION AND RESOURCES TO THERAPEUTIC PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. POSITIVE CLINICAL TRIAL RESULTS, AS WELL AS INTERNAL AND COLLABORATIVE PRECLINICAL RESULTS, VALIDATED DYAX’S THERAPEUTIC APPROACH AND PROPRIETARY DISCOVERY TECHNOLOGY. Clinical Advances Driving our progress during the year, we announced positive clinical trial results for both of our recombinant compounds in the clinic, DX-88 and DX-890, in all three inflammatory indications being studied – hereditary angioedema (HAE), cystic fibrosis (CF) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. More details regarding these results are contained herein. Both compounds were also granted orphan drug designation by regulatory authorities in the United States (U.S.) and the European Union (EU); DX-88 for the treatment of angioedema and DX-890 for the treatment of CF.These designations recognize the importance placed on bringing therapeutic alternatives to market for patients living with conditions that have unmet medical needs. Collaborations and Discovery Research Advantages Throughout the year, we established new antibody discovery collaborations and produced positive results for existing collaborators. Today, 80% of the discovery work being done at Dyax is antibody related. We are taking advantage of the market demand for antibodies to generate revenues, and we are producing results that set Dyax apart from other antibody discovery and development companies. Utilizing our state-of-the art discovery capabilities and automation to rapidly identify fully human antibodies, Dyax Corp. Annual Report 2003 we are achieving picomolar to nanomolar affinities, prior to affinity maturation. Some of these antibodies will enter into preclinical studies during 2004. In addition to antibodies, Dyax has made a head start into the future of drug development, where

  • The Impact of Secondary Innovation on Firm Market Value in the Pharmaceutical Industry
    The Impact of Secondary Innovation on Firm Market Value in the Pharmaceutical Industry By: Maitri Punjabi Honors Thesis Economics Department The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill March 2016 Approved: ______________________________ Dr. Jonathan Williams Punjabi 2 Abstract This paper analyzes the effect of the changing nature of innovation on pharmaceutical firm market value from the years 1987 to 2010 by using U.S. patent and claim data. Over the years, firms have started shifting focus from primary innovation to secondary innovation as new ideas and new compounds become more difficult to generate. In this study, we analyze the impact of this patent portfolio shift on the market capitalization of pharmaceutical firms. After using firm fixed effects and the instrumental variable approach, we find that there exists a strong positive relationship between secondary innovations and the market value of the firm– in fact, we find a stronger relationship than is observed between primary innovation and market value. When focusing on the different levels of innovation within the industry, we find that this relationship is stronger for less-innovative firms (those that have produced fewer patents) than it is for highly- innovative firms. We also find that this relationship is stronger for firms that spend less on research and development, complementing earlier findings that research productivity is declining over time. Punjabi 3 Acknowledgements I would primarily like to thank my adviser, Dr. Jonathan Williams, for his patience and constant support. Without his kind and helpful attitude, this project would have been a much more frustrating process. Through his knowledge of the industry, I have gained valuable insight and have learned a great deal about a unique and growing field.

In the first of a two-part series, he discusses his experiences in the company that he joined in 1994, and expounds upon issues faced by the industry as a whole. Eleanor Malone: Genzyme went through some dark times before the Sanofi acquisition with the manufacturing issues that led to shortages of enzyme replacement therapies. What lessons did you draw from those difficulties? David Meeker: You are absolutely correct; they were incredibly painful, dark moments. We failed to deliver on the implicit promise David Meeker addresses employees at of ensuring that patients can access the Genzyme’s HQ following a torch relay connecting the company’s sites near Boston medicines that they need. I think we learned to mark International Rare Diseases Day many lessons. On a very tactical level we learned about the lead time that it takes to bring biologic manufacturing up – we realised it right for the patient, given the limitations Many acquisitions destroy value, and a lot too late that we were not going to be at an we had.

  • Immunocore and Medimmune Announce New Collaboration to Conduct Immuno-Oncology Combination Trials in Melanoma
    PRESS RELEASE – IMMUNOCORE LIMITED Immunocore and MedImmune announce new collaboration to conduct immuno-oncology combination trials in melanoma (Oxford, UK, 16 April 2015) Immunocore Limited, a world-leading biotechnology company developing novel biological drugs to treat cancer and other diseases, and MedImmune, the global biologics research and development arm of AstraZeneca, today announced that they have entered into a second collaboration. Under the terms of the agreement, Immunocore will conduct a Phase Ib/II clinical trial combining MedImmune’s investigational checkpoint inhibitors MEDI4736 (anti-PD-L1) and/or tremelimumab (anti-CTLA-4) with IMCgp100, Immunocore’s lead T-cell receptor based investigational therapeutic, for the potential treatment of patients with metastatic melanoma. MedImmune has an exclusive relationship with Immunocore for the development of IMCgp100 in combination with MEDI4736 and/or tremelimumab, and will have first right of negotiation for the future commercial development of these combinations for tumours expressing gp100. Immunocore and MedImmune will collaborate to establish a dosing regimen for IMCgp100 combined with MEDI4736 and/or tremelimumab, as part of the Phase Ib study. The Phase II study will assess the safety and efficacy of the different combinations. The companies have a pre-existing research collaboration and licensing agreement, announced in January 2014, to develop novel cancer therapies using Immunocore’s Immune Mobilising Monoclonal T-Cell Receptor Against Cancer (ImmTAC) technology. “We are pleased to expand our partnership with Immunocore, a leader in the discovery and development of novel T-cell receptor-based drugs, to include this combination clinical trial in melanoma,” said Dr. Ed Bradley, Senior Vice President and Head of the Oncology Innovative Medicines unit, MedImmune.

  • The Future of Biomanufacturing
    THE FUTURE OF BIOMANUFACTURING WELCOME TO A PLACE THAT DELIVERS. HEADER 2 | BIOMANUFACTURING WELCOME TO EUROPE’S MOST SIGNIFICANT CLUSTER OF BIOMANUFACTURING. Liverpool City Region is home to the world’s biggest pharmaceutical players. It is also one of the world’s longest established biomanufacturing centres, chosen by the UK government in the 1940s for the largest penicillin manufacturing plant in the world. Major companies continue to build on this long-tradition and reinvest in new world-class facilities. Our formula for pharma manufacturing success is clear. Liverpool City Region sits at the centre of the UK’s chemical engineering industry; is part of a major centre for health and life sciences and is driving the advanced manufacturing sector through digital innovation. The convergence of these assets has a catalytic impact on the availability of the science, technology and engineering talent that underpins biomanufacturing. Most importantly though, a committed partnership of local organisations is supporting existing manufacturers and the wider supply-chain, through programmes to invest in the infrastructure, facilities and skills that the sector needs to succeed.
