Tim McCarthy, Chairman of ImmuPharma firmly committed to Lupuzor™ ahead of the start of the Managed Access Programme

ImmuPharma’s strategy and business model are different from many of its peers. We are a risk-averse company and our management team has extensive experience in senior positions in some of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies. We focus on developing pioneering and novel drugs in specialist therapeutic areas where there is a distinct lack of existing treatments, avoiding primary care (diseases treated by GPs) where many treatments exist. This is consistent with the trends in the pharmaceutical industry. Since our foundation, our research strategy has been to work closely with the largest fundamental research organisation in Europe, the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, (CNRS) in France. This collaboration enables us to access innovative research with substantial embedded value and to work with many leading scientists and doctors. ImmuPharma has exclusive rights to all its intellectual property assets. Our market strategy is to license our assets to leading international corporations that are well-placed to further develop and/or commercialise our drugs. Our corporate deal with Cephalon Inc. in 2008, for the worldwide rights of our lead drug candidate for the treatment of Lupus, Lupuzor™ is one example of this strategy in action.
