Actually you have only one choice..

Questions?
6
Key Attributes in Picking the Ideal Partner
  • Level One
  • History of successful alliances
  • Stays the course in tough times (e.g.
    BMS-Imclone)
  • Demonstrated ability to develop/commercialize in
    the therapeutic area
  • Global capabilities
  • Does your product fit their strategic focus?
  • Potential product synergies
  • No competitive development candidate of their own

7
Erbitux Staying the course
  • Challenges
  • FDA Refusal to File Letter (RTF)
  • External pressure to pull out (Media/Analyst)
  • Tri-party interactions (BMS, Merck KGaA ImClone)

8
Erbitux Focus Commitment
  • Belief in the drug clear commitment from senior
    management
  • Tri-company cross cultural collaboration
  • Close interactions/collaboration with FDA on
    registration path forward

9
Erbitux Accomplishments
  • First cancer therapy to selectively target the
    Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR)
  • Approved in refractory metastatic colorectal
    cancer (Feb 2004)
  • Used alone or combined with chemotherapy
  • On-going studies across multiple tumor types
  • HN Approved

10
Erbitux Lifecycle Management Plan
11
Signs to Look for Once the Process Begins
  • Level Two
  • A transparent expeditious review process
  • Responsive to requests
  • Commitment from top management
  • Flexible
  • Open minded, not dogmatic
  • An established Alliance Management group
  • Nice people good chemistry amongst the teams
  • Ask your friends..

12
Further into the Process
  • Level Three
  • Do they share your vision for the product?
  • Capabilities presentations, etc.
  • Do they problem solve vs. interrogate/prosecute
    during the due diligence process?
  • Flexible on deal terms
  • Remember, the best deal may not be the richest
    deal

13
Advice in Attracting the Ideal Partner
  • Be transparent forthcoming - science trumps all
    else
  • Need not preach to us about market-size, etc.
  • Please, please one point of entry into the
    company
  • And do not be afraid to ask questions about us,
    our processes, etc.

14
From Big Pharma Perspective
  • First send us a non-confidential background
    document that summarizes
  • Lead indication for the drug
  • Stage of development
  • Studies establishing proof of concept (at least
    in animals)
  • Studies establishing likely therapeutic window
    (safety margin)
  • Sense of drugs developability (PK/PD,
    solubility, etc.)
  • Patent status
  • Competitive position
  • Type of license being sought

15
Advice to Biotech
  • Decisions are data driven
  • Therefore, transparency and forthrightness are
    critical
  • And expect us to be equally so, regarding our
    approval process, etc.
  • Please make yourselves available for follow-up
    questions, etc.

16
BMS Criteria for Candidate In-Licensing
  • Strategic Fit
  • Unmet Medical / Scientific /Technical Need
  • Scientifically Sound
  • Feasibility of Development / Utilization
  • Commercial / Business Value

17
What We Look for in Compounds
  • All stages of development
  • Biologicals are ok
  • For pre-clinical compounds
  • Within 12 months of First in Man
  • Proof of concept in validated animal models
  • Evidence of potential wide therapeutic window
  • ADME work-up
  • P450, herg, etc. Benign
  • Oral bioavailability
  • Drugable pharmaceutical properties
  • Back-up program !!!

18
What We Look for in Compounds (contd)
  • For Clinical Stage Compounds
  • Good safety tolerability
  • PK/PD supporting 1x/day dosing
  • Efficacy

19
What We Look for in Companies
  • Solid group of experienced scientists
  • Been there, done that
  • Track record of problem solving
  • Solid executive team, including investors
  • Signs of stability
  • Good financial position
  • Track record of other alliances
  • Ideal company has a proprietary and useful
    platform with multiple candidates arising from
    it.

20
What We Have to Offer
  • Obvious clinical, regulatory and
    commercialization skills
  • Not so obvious is experience and skill to pick
    optimal development candidates and well thought
    out back-up programs
  • Just not the assays, etc, but deep experience in
    this area often unappreciated
  • First compound never makes it
  • Takes significant resources to back up lead
