Over the past five years, we have built a global network and value-creating strategic partnerships. We have established several global partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies via in-licensing and clinical collaborations.
We will continue to expand our portfolio and explore partnership through strategic collaborations to maximize the value of our pipeline.
- Laekna has entered into a clinical collaboration agreement with Eli Lilly and Company to support and accelerate global clinical development of LAE102 for the treatment of obesity. Lilly is responsible for the execution and funding of a phase I study in the U.S. Laekna retains global rights for LAE102.
- We have obtained exclusive global rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize LAE001, LAE002, LAE003 and LAE005 under our license agreement with Novartis and we are committed to seek additional partnerships to further optimize our product pipeline.
These opportunities include co-developments of novel treatment modalities for our existing clinical stage pipeline to treat drug resistant tumor types by delivering alternative solutions for patients.
As part of our core strategy to develop first-in-class or best-in-class drugs to market, we continue to seek novel research partnerships, in the pursuit to bring in house cutting-edge science and technologies in the field of drug development for cancer and liver diseases.
