Shire HGT Collaboration
In November 2007, Amicus entered into a strategic collaboration with Shire Human Genetic Therapies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shire plc, to jointly develop Amicus' three lead pharmacological chaperone compounds for lysosomal storage disorders: Amigal, Plicera and AT2220. Under the terms of the collaboration, Shire will pay development and sales milestones up to a maximum of $390 million, and will also pay tiered, double-digit royalties on net sales of the products. Shire also reimburses worldwide development costs on a 50/50 basis, and in return Shire received rights to commercialize these products outside of the U.S. while Amicus retains all rights to commercialize these products in the U.S. In addition, Amicus leads development operations through the end of Phase 2 clinical trials. The companies then share responsibility for Phase 3 clinical trial development leveraging Shire's significant ex-U.S. regulatory and clinical experience as well as its commercial infrastructure.
