Date:4/7/2011

OSAKA, Japan and NORWOOD, Mass., April 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd. ("DSP") and Boston Biomedical, Inc. ("BBI"), today announced that they have signed a Product Option License Agreement for BBI608 for all oncology indications in Japan and exclusive right of negotiation for BBI608 for the United States and Canada.

BBI608 is an orally administered, first-in-class, small molecule anti-cancer drug that targets highly malignant cancer stem cells as well as other heterogeneous cancer cells. In clinical trials to date, BBI608 has shown excellent safety, favorable pharmacokinetics, and encouraging signs of anticancer activity.  BBI608 is under phase I extension clinical studies in colorectal cancer and phase Ib/II trials in multiple solid tumor types.

Under the terms of the agreement, BBI will receive $15million of upfront payment and clinical trial support upon signing.  Based on the outcome of the clinical trials, DSP has the option to acquire exclusive rights for the development and commercialization for BBI608 in Japan. In addition, DSP has an exclusive negotiation right for the United States and Canada for a certain time.  During this option agreement period, DSP will pay a maximum of $55million for part of the development costs of BBI608 and for continuation of the option. Assuming DSP exercise the option for Japan, upon successful clinical development and commercialization of BBI608 in Japan, BBI could receive a maximum of approximately $100million in aggregate, including milestone payments associated with successful development and commercialization, in addition to running royalties.
