- Xadago launched; eyes now on pipeline assets

Following an encouraging year to date we have upgraded our forecasts for Xadago (Parkinson’s disease [PD] therapy), and key CNS pipeline assets sarizotan (Rett syndrome) and Evenamide (schizophrenia). Sublicensee partner US WorldMeds launched Xadago into the US market in July 2017; Xadago is now available in the majority of key markets worldwide through partners. Importantly Newron’s CNS R&D pipeline is progressing; clinical data and commercial opportunity details presented on Evenamide and sarizotan at the R&D day in May have prompted upgrades to our peak sales forecasts and valuation. Our updated valuation is CHF754m.
