Shire Delivers Strong First Quarter Performance and Reiterates its Expectation of Good Full Year Earnings Growth
Date:4/26/2012

results of the second trial are pending, the current intention is not to pursue a regulatory filing for this indication for MMX mesalamine.

Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate ("LDX") (currently marketed as VYVANSE in the US for the treatment of ADHD) for the treatment of Binge Eating Disorder ("BED")

  • Today, Shire announced Phase 2 results from an efficacy and safety clinical study of LDX for the treatment of BED. In this study, in which the pre-defined primary end point was met, treatment of adults with LDX resulted in a statistically significant reduction in binge eating behaviour and increased remission rates from binge eating compared to placebo. There is currently no approved pharmacologic treatment for patients struggling with BED, the most common eating disorder.

FIRST QUARTER AND RECENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

Since the beginning of the year we have added to our pipeline through the following transactions:


Acquisition of FerroKin Biosciences, Inc. ("FerroKin")

  • On April 2, 2012 Shire completed the acquisition of FerroKin and with it SPD 602 (formally referred to as FBS0701), FerroKin's iron chelator treatment in Phase 2 development. SPD 602 serves a chronic patient need for treatment of iron overload following numerous blood transfusions. Together with our collaboration with Sangamo Biosciences Inc. ("Sangamo"), the acquisition of FerroKin represents a strategic step in building Shire's hematology business, which already includes XAGRID® and a growing development pipeline, including SPD 535. Cash consideration paid on closing amounted to $94.5 million. Further contingent cash consideration of up to $225 million may be payable by Shire in future periods, dependent upon the achievement of certain clinical development, regulatory and net sales milestones.
