Astellas and Medivation Enter Into Worldwide Agreement to Co-Develop and Co-Commercialize MDV3100 for the Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Date:10/27/2009

TOKYO and SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Astellas Pharma Inc. ("Astellas") and Medivation, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDVN) announced today that they have entered into a global agreement to develop and commercialize MDV3100, Medivation's investigational drug for the treatment of prostate cancer. MDV3100 is currently being evaluated in the Phase 3 AFFIRM clinical trial in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer who were previously treated with docetaxel-based chemotherapy.

Under the terms of the agreement, Medivation will receive an up-front cash payment of $110 million. Medivation is also eligible to receive payments of up to $335 million upon the attainment of development and regulatory milestones plus up to an additional $320 million in commercial milestone payments. The companies will collaborate on a comprehensive development program that will include additional studies to develop MDV3100 for both late- and early-stage prostate cancer. Subject to receipt of regulatory approval, the companies will jointly commercialize MDV3100 in the U.S. The companies will share equally all U.S. development costs, commercialization costs, and profits. Astellas will have responsibility for developing and commercializing MDV3100 outside the U.S. and will pay Medivation tiered double-digit royalties on ex-U.S. sales.

"We are pleased to initiate a great partnership with Medivation," stated Masafumi Nogimori, president and chief executive officer of Astellas. "We believe that MDV3100 has the unique potential to establish a new treatment approach for prostate cancer. Astellas already has the global expertise in urology and the strong commitment to focus on oncology. This partnership is a significant milestone to further expand our business in urology and to establish our franchise in oncology."
