Work is ongoing to develop the facility in accordance with these requirements.

 

Research and Development

Glenmark today has a pipeline of 11 NCE and NBE molecules in the pipeline, with three molecules in Phase II clinical development.

 

NCEs:

Oglemilast:

GRC 3886:

USFDA has provided a favorable response to the submission made by Forest, allowing it to initiate an additional Phase II study in COPD for Oglemilast (GRC 3886), Glenmark’s lead PDE4 inhibitor molecule. The approval came after Forest satisfactorily addressed FDA’s outstanding non-clinical questions. Glenmark is working closely with Forest Labs, which is Glenmark’s North American partner for Oglemilast, to detail out plans for further longer term development, Glenmark views this as an important positive step in continuing overall clinical development of

Oglemilast

 

Melogliptin (GRC 8200):

Glenmark had out-licensed Melogliptin to Merck KGAA in October 2005. The drug has completed Phase 2A studies and is currently undergoing Phase 2B studies. Glenmark plans to complete all Phase 2’s on Monotherapy by the end of calendar 2008 and would initiate Phase 3’s in early 2009. Glenmark also plans to develop Melogliptin in combination with various other diabetes therapies.

 

Merck recently announced that it plans to move out of the diabetes space for strategic reasons. In light of this development Glenmark is currently in discussions with Merck to find the best way forward. A final decision on the next steps would be announced shortly.

GRC 6211:

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals S.A. (GPSA) a wholly owned subsidiary of Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited India (GPL), has out licensed its molecule GRC 6211 to Eli Lilly and Company. Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly will acquire the rights to a portfolio of transient receptor potential vanilloid sub-family 1 (TRPV1) antagonist molecules, including a clinical compound, GRC 6211. GRC 6211 is currently in early clinical Phase II development as a potential next-generation treatment for various pain conditions, including osteoarthritic pain.

 

As per the terms of the agreement, Glenmark has received an upfront fee of $45 million and could receive up to an additional $215 million in potential development and sales milestones for the initial indication, as well as royalties on sales if GRC 6211 is successfully commercialized. If other indications are successfully developed, Glenmark would be entitled to additional milestones up to $90 million. Lilly will have marketing rights for North America, Europe and Japan, while Glenmark will retain the marketing rights in all other countries. Further Glenmark will have the right to copromote GRC 6211 in the United States.

 

GRC 4039:

Glenmark’s candidate for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammation and Multiple Sclerosis - GRC 4039, a PDE 4 inhibitor, will commence Phase I trials in the coming quarters.

 

GRC 10693 and GRC 10801

Glenmark has two more molecules in advanced pre-clinical stages. Glenmark plans to move GRC 10693 and GRC 10801 into Phase 1 in the coming quarters..

 

Biologics

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals S.A., the wholly-owned Swiss subsidiary of Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited. (Glenmark) is developing its pipeline for NBE’s focusing on oncology and inflammatory disorders.

 

GBR 500:

GBR 500 (formerly CHR 1103), a broad anti inflammatory agent with a novel mechanism of action, is undergoing IND enabling studies and is on course for IND submission by mid 2008.

 

GBR 600:

GBR 600 (formerly CHR 1201), an antithrombolytic humanized monoclonal antibody is showing good results in pre-clinical testing and is being scaled up for further IND enabling studies.

 

Glenmark-Dyax collaboration:

Glenmark’s molecule for Rheumatoid Arthritis - GRC 4039, enters Phase I trials

 

Mumbai, February 21, 2008 – Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited. [Glenmark] announced today that its candidate for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammation and Multiple Sclerosis - GRC 4039, has entered Phase I trials. This is with approval from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency [MHRA] in the U.K. The company intends to develop GRC 4039, a PDE 4 inhibitor, in Rheumatoid Arthritis as the primary indication. Glenmark expects to complete Phase I trials for GRC 4039 by October 2008 and initiate Phase II by January 2009.

 

GRC 4039, a selective PDE4 inhibitor is intended for rheumatoid arthritis [RA] and inflammatory disorders. After the withdrawal/setback of COX-2 Inhibitors and the void that exists in RA therapy for orally available potent small molecules, this is a potential block-buster opportunity in the global market. Speaking on this development, Mr. Glenn Saldanha, MD and CEO, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited., said, “We are happy to take GRC 4039 forward into Phase I trials. This is Glenmark’s fourth molecule to enter the clinics from our pipeline of eight NCEs and NBEs, and demonstrates our steady progress in the drug discovery space. RA has been selected as the primary indication for its commercial attractiveness, the unmet medical need for potent and convenient oral therapies and

the sound biological rationale for PDE-4 inhibitor–based treatment in RA.”

 

GRC 4039 in pre-clinical testing has exhibited IC50 of 2.7nM; over 3700 fold selectivity to PDE4, good bioavailability across species and a long half-life indicating the potential for a once-daily dosing regimen. Additionally, there was no emesis in the pre-clinical models. The molecule demonstrated favourable results in early toxicology studies, a good safety margin and also exhibited good efficacy in in-vivo

 

RA and TNF- α inhibition models.

RA is a debilitating disorder with significant unmet need and attractive market dynamics. Approximately 1% of the global population is thought to be affected by the disorder, a systemic autoimmune disease that usually causes progressive symmetrical inflammation and damage of the joints by destroying the particular surfaces covering the bones. One in three RA patients is likely to be disabled within 20 years of disease onset due to rapid disease progression. Onset often occurs between the ages of 25 and 50 years and is two to three times more prevalent in

women than in men.

The Company is currently in the process of evaluating several European partners for Oglemilast to develop and market the drug in Europe.

 

Further to signing a EUR 190 Mn deal with Merck KGaA, Germany for the development, registration and commercialization of GRC 8200, Glenmark’s DPP-IV inhibitor for treating Type II Diabetes, earlier in Q3, the Company received the upfront payment of EUR 25 Mn from its partner towards the end of the same quarter. The molecule is currently in Phase 2 clinical testing in India and South Africa.

 

Glenmark’s third molecule, GRC 6211, a vanilloid receptor [VR1] antagonist compound for a range of pain indications entered Phase 1 trials; conducted by Kendle, a leading global CRO. The Company hopes to complete Phase 1 by June 2007 and the dental pain study by October 2007; it aims to be an early launcher in this class and targets launching the molecule in 2011. Glenmark is also in discussions for potential licensing partners for this compound.

 

Glenmark has three more molecules in the pre-clinical stages and plans to take one of them, GRC 10801 [a CB1 antagonist for obesity], to the clinics by March-April 2007. The

 

Company expects 2 more molecules, GRC 10693 [CB2 agonist for pain] and GRC 4039 [PDE4 for Rheumatoid Arthritis] to progress to Phase 1 in Q1 and Q2 of FY08 respectively. Thus Glenmark expects to have 6 molecules in the clinics by next year.

 

Glenn Saldanha, Managing Director and CEO of Glenmark said: “They remain committed to NCE research and are confident of achieving the aggressive targets they have set out: they currently have three molecules undergoing clinical trials and three more poised to enter the clinics over the next six to eight months. On the generics and branded generics front, they are happy with the buoyant growth shown by their US and Latin American businesses and they expect them to contribute significantly to the overall revenues.”
