Kamada is focused on plasma-derived protein therapeutics with a commercial product portfolio and a late-stage product pipeline. The Company uses its proprietary platform technology and know-how for the extraction and purification of proteins from human plasma to produce Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) in a highly-purified, liquid form, as well as other plasma-derived Immune globulins. AAT is a protein derived from human plasma with known and newly-discovered therapeutic roles given its immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, tissue-protective and antimicrobial properties. The Company`s flagship product is GLASSIA®, the first liquid, ready-to-use, intravenous plasma-derived AAT product approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Kamada markets GLASSIA® in the U.S. through a strategic partnership with Baxalta (now part of Shire plc) and in other counties through local distributors. In addition to GLASSIA®, Kamada has a product line of six other pharmaceutical products administered by injection or infusion, that are marketed through distributors in more than 15 countries, including Israel, Russia, Brazil, India and other countries in Latin America and Asia. Kamada`s rabies immune globulin (Human) product received FDA approval for Post-Exposure Prophylaxis against rabies infection and is marketed in the U.S. through a partnership with Kedrion Biopharma. Kamada has late-stage products in development, including an inhaled formulation of AAT for the treatment of AAT deficiency and, in addition, its intravenous AAT is in development for other indications, such as type-1 diabetes, GvHD and prevention of lung transplant rejection. Kamada also leverages its expertise and presence in the plasma-derived protein therapeutics market by distributing more than 10 complementary products in Israel that are manufactured by third parties.
Vernalis plc is a revenue generating development stage pharmaceutical company with one marketed product, frovatriptan, and a broad pipeline of research and development programmes. The business model is a balance between risk and innovation with the aim of creating value through a focused and disciplined strategy. An exclusive development and licensing agreement with Tris Pharma to develop multiple novel products focussed on the US prescription cough cold market is the platform for Vernalis to build a profitable and cash generative commercial business in the US. These novel products are low risk, late stage and differentiated for an unmet need. Value is also being extracted from the legacy NCE pipeline where the model is to selectively invest and then partner these programmes, earning milestones and royalties as partners progress them at their expense. Vernalis also exploits its significant expertise in fragment and structure based drug discovery by entering into collaborations with larger pharmaceutical companies. Its technologies and capabilities have been endorsed, over the last five years, through collaborations with leading pharmaceutical companies, including Biogen Idec, Endo, GSK, Genentech, Lundbeck, Menarini, Novartis, Servier and Tris Pharma.
