Oxford BioMedica (OXB): Demanding second half
Oxford BioMedica (OXB) is a gene-based medicine viral-vector biopharma company. It offers vector manufacturing and development services, while developing proprietary therapies, with its LentiVector® platform. Growth in gross income and profitability were driven by new licensing deals in 2018. Despite steady growth in 1H’19 group sales (bioprocessing and commercial development), a reduction in licensing income resulted in a first-half operating loss; the absence of significant deals in 2019 has also dampened the shares. Although interim results were in line with our expectations, they highlight the importance of 2H’19 for a full-year profit.Oxford BioMedica is a producer of gene and cell therapy in lentiviral vector and cell therapy research, development and production. Gene and cell therapy is the treatment of disease by the delivery of therapeutic deoxyribonucleic acid into a patient's cells. This can be achieved either in vivo (referred to as gene therapy) or ex vivo (referred to as cell therapy), the latter being where patients' cells are genetically modified cells outside the body before being re-infused. Co.'s products include: OXB-102, which targets Parkinson's disease; OXB-202, which targets corneal graft rejection; and OXB-302 (CAR-T 5T4), which targets targets a range of cancers.
