Outlook: Teva returns rights to cardiovascular programme
Teva has relinquished all rights to cardiovascular applications of Mesoblast’s mesenchymal precursor cell (MPC) technology, as it focuses on its core CNS and respiratory interests. Mesoblast will seek a new partner with a cardiovascular focus at the appropriate time. It has entered an A$120m (~US$90m) equity finance facility with Kentgrove Capital to fund the ongoing Phase III CHF trial and a 600-patient confirmatory trial (estimated cost ~US$90m), and has brought forward the interim futility analysis to Q117. We have revised our development timelines and lower our valuation to A$1.8bn from A$2.8bn (A$4.67 from A$7.36 per share).Mesoblast is engaged in the development of regenerative medicine products. Co. has leveraged its proprietary technology platform, based on specialized cells known as mesenchymal lineage adult stem cells ("MLCs"), to establish a portfolio of late-stage product candidates. Co.'s allogeneic, "off the shelf" product candidates target advanced stages of diseases with high, unmet medical needs including cardiovascular conditions, orthopedic disorders, immunologic and inflammatory disorders and oncology and hematologic conditions. Each MLC-derived product candidate has technical characteristics, target indications, reimbursement strategy, commercialization potential, and partnering opportunities.
