Speaker Line Up
Neil Clark, CEO, Destiny Pharma
Destiny Pharma plans to generate income and shareholder value by the clinical development and commercial exploitation of its proprietary, highly innovative anti-bacterial drug platform. The XF drug platform is being developed to prevent and treat existing and emerging superbug infections within and outside of hospitals.
The main market for the lead asset XF-73, which is currently in Phase 2 clinical studies, is the prevention of post-surgical infections such as MRSA. The commercial focus is initially in the USA but the need for a new treatment is global and Destiny Pharma has the ability to enter into licensing agreements and collaborations for other territories in due course. For example, the agreement signed in 2017 with China Medical Systems is a broad collaboration to develop the company’s assets in the China/Asia market.
The Board believes that the increasing governmental pressure and financial incentives that are being implemented now and possibly in the future by leading institutions such as the WHO, UN, FDA and G7/G20 will increase further the options available for profitable commercialisation and the generation of shareholder value.
