Clinigen is a rapidly-growing specialty pharmaceutical and services company, with one clear aim: to deliver the right drug to the right patient at the right time.




To achieve our aim, we have built a group of complementary businesses which can operate efficiently in a complex global regulatory environment and which can ensure that precious medicines are delivered securely and effectively, wherever they are needed. Through three businesses, Clinigen SP, Clinigen GAP, and Clinigen CTS, we acquire, license and revitalise niche, hospital-only critical care medicines, and source and supply our own and other pharmaceutical companies’ products, whether to meet unmet medical needs or for use in clinical trials.





Clinigen Clinical Trials Supply (CTS):

We use our global expertise, systems and relationships to source and manage the supply of commercial medicines to pharmaceutical companies for use exclusively in clinical trials. This requires excellent knowledge of the global pharmaceutical market, the regulatory processes and customs authorities of countries all over the world, along with a high tech supply chain with guaranteed quality and safety standards that can deliver swiftly.

Clinigen Global Access Programs (GAP):

On behalf of pharmaceutical and biotech companies, we manage essential programs that provide access to critical medicines for physicians and their patients all over the world. But what is a Global Access Program? Known by many terms from ‘expanded access’ and ‘named patient’ to ‘compassionate use’ and ‘early access’, a global access program enables physicians to access treatments that are not available in their own country for patients with an unmet medical need. Wherever they are, we can deliver treatments quickly, efficiently and, most importantly, ethically.

Clinigen Specialty Pharmaceuticals (SP):

We acquire niche medicines that don’t fit into the portfolio of larger pharmaceutical companies. These are typically hospital-only treatments for rare or life-threatening diseases, and we specialise in revitalising them – finding new treatment areas; new markets where we can get them licensed; or, potentially, new formulations. All the while, we’re ensuring that patients already using the medicine continue to get the treatment they need, while the company whose product we have acquired can feel confident that its reputation is being well looked after.

We are currently 100+ people, headquartered in Burton-on-Trent in the UK, with facilities in Philadelphia, US, and Tokyo, Japan, and an office in London. With a customer services team who speak over 19 languages between them, our clients from all over the world find us easy to do business with, while doctors and pharmacists find us a valuable source of information about how to access the medicines they need for their patients.

The company has secured the European rights to Vibativ, a treatment for pneumonia caused by MRSA, from US firm Theravance. Charles Weston at Numis expects sales to commence in the first half of 2014 and expects the treatment to generate up to £6 million a year.

A buy in this weeks SM - Antibiotic resistance is very much in the news, which adds a timeliness to a deal between clinical product supply specialist Clinigen and US biotech company Theravance. Clinigen has tied up the European rights for vibativ, a treatment for drug-resistant pneumonia resulting from an MRSA super-bug infection.
For $5m (£3.3m) upfront fee, Clinigen has acquired the EU rights to Vibativ, as well as rights for Switzerland and Norway, and will pay a royalty to Taheravance of between 20% -30%, dependiing on sales.

RNS this morning should cream the SP north. Will try and add.

Clinigen Group plc acquires oncology support therapy Cardioxane for US$33 million

Clinigen Group plc acquires oncology support therapy Cardioxane® from a world-leading pharmaceutical company

Burton-on-Trent, UK 26 March 2013 Clinigen Group plc (Clinigen" or the Group") (LSE: CLIN) (AIM: CLIN) today announced the acquisition of Cardioxane® (dexrazoxane) from Novartis for US$33 million in cash, payable in two tranches. Under the terms of the agreement, Clinigen will assume responsibility for manufacturing, registration, distribution, and commercialization of the product in countries where current marketing authorizations exist, including key European, Asian and Latin American territories.

Cardioxane, an oncology support therapy, is a cardioprotective agent used to prevent the cardiotoxicity of anthracycline chemotherapy for patients with advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer.

Clinigen believes there is an opportunity to revitalize Cardioxane, which has no direct licensed competition in the anthracycline therapy cardioprotection space, by utilizing new commercialization, market and indication strategies over the next five years. Historic revenues for Cardioxane have been c.US$11-12 million per annum. Clinigen is targeting a gross margin of 60%. Latin America is a strong market for Cardioxane which is of particular interest to Clinigen, being a territory in which the Group wishes to expand its reach and which may improve access routes for existing portfolio products such as Foscavir®, as well as products that Clinigen may acquire in the future.

Cardioxane is the third addition to Clinigen"s Specialty Pharmaceuticals (SP) business complementing Foscavir, its anti-viral active against Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and commonly used in the support of leukemia patients undergoing bone marrow transplants, acquired from AstraZeneca in March 2010. Recently, the Group in-licensed VIBATIV®, an anti-bacterial for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia caused by MRSA, for commercialization in the EU from Theravance. All three are highly specialized, hospital-only drugs which Clinigen SP supplies into licensed markets and Clinigen Global Access Programs (GAP) supplies into pre- or unlicensed markets on a named patient basis.

SAcquiring Cardioxane from Novartis is another major step forward for us,⬝ said Peter George, Chief Executive Officer of Clinigen. SCardioxane fits particularly well within our portfolio. We have been looking for medicines that complement Foscavir and Cardioxane does this by extending our role in oncology support. Together with our recent addition of VIBATIV, which further builds on our anti-infective capability, we are delivering on our mission to supply the right drug to the right patient at the right time.⬝

About Cardioxane® (dexrazoxane)

Cardioxane is a cardioprotective agent used to prevent chronic cumulative cardiotoxicity caused by doxorubicin or epirubicin in advanced and/or metastatic adult breast cancer patients who have received a prior cumulative dose of 300mg/m2 of doxorubicin or 540mg/m2 of epirubicin when further chemotherapy treatment is required. Cardioxane is administered by intravenous infusion. It is believed to work by binding to metal ions, thus decreasing the formation of intracellular superoxide radicals and preventing cardiotoxicity. Cardioxane was initially licensed in 1992. Subsequently, Novartis acquired the product as part of the 2006 acquisition of Chiron. The product is currently licensed for sale in 43 markets around the world, including 18 in Latin America.

Within the European Union Cardioxane underwent a revision to its label in 2011, restricting its licensed use to advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer. The change brought the EU label in line with the dexrazoxane indication that exists within the United States.
