Vernalis (LON:VER) - First cough/cold milestone
Mar 06th 2013 - Edison Investment Research today published a report on Vernalis (VER.L, LSE:VER, LON:VER) entitled "First Cough/cold Milestone". In summary, the report says:
Vernalis has paid out its first milestone to Tris Pharma, which marks the successful “proof of concept” for the first collaboration programme (CCP-01). The alliance with Tris Pharma aims to develop up to six extended release cough/cold products for the US prescription market. The timings suggest an NDA for CCP-01 could be filed mid-14. The creation of a portfolio of extended release products is a major element of the strategy to achieve sustainable profitability. Further in-licensing efforts should now focus on products that complement the seasonality of this emerging portfolio.
