The two companies are both in the business of acquiring early-stage developmental drugs, and out-licensing them for development and commercialization, and garnering royalty payments in the process. GENova's focus is oncology, while Prime BioResearch specializes in Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
"While Prime BioResearch aims to cure metabolic disorders, and GENova seeks cancer cures, our two companies have much in common, and we can learn a lot from each other and help each other towards success," says Aaron Whiteman, CEO for GENova.
Both companies share a mutual goal of fast-tracking their target drugs through development, clinical studies, licensing to Large Pharma Companies, and finally to market. Navigating the myriad of channels to do so can be complex, and so by sharing strategies in efficiency, both GENova and Prime BioResearch will mutually benefit. The ultimate goal is to get their promising anti-cancer and anti-obesity drugs to market as soon as possible.
