Abstract
Kyowa currently ranks 42nd of all researched-based companies in terms of pharmaceutical sales. This report provides a full review of the company's activities together with sales forecasts for key products to 2010.
Kyowa has terminated, in March 2005, its Japanese marketing agreement with Janssen (J&J) for the oral antifungal, Itrizole (itraconazole). The move leaves Kyowa with just three key products. The loss of Itrizole gives Kyowa a huge short term headache as it accounted for 19.1% of total pharmaceutical sales in fiscal 2005.
The company is concentrating its core business in pharmaceuticals and has divested or restructured many of its non core food and chemical interests.
R&D Pipeline Overview
Kyowa has highlighted three candidate drugs as potential growth drivers for the future:
- KW-6002 is a novel compound that is indicated for Parkinson's disease. It is currently being developed in Europe, Canada and the US where it is anticipated to be filed in 2006.
- KW-7158 differs from existing anticholinergic drugs in that it is effective on peripheral sensory nerves in the bladder. The development of KW-7158 indicates a move into a new therapeutic area for Kyowa, urology, with the company citing the large market potential for this field, both domestically and abroad.
- KW-2871 is a monoclonal antibody in early-stage development. It has been shown to be effective against melanoma cells. The company is optimistic for this compound and is investing in its overseas development.
