IPSCIO Record ID: 330753
Under the License, Licensor is responsible for executing a pre-specified clinical development plan designed to obtain regulatory approvals of ANG-3777 for DGF and CSA-AKI.
Licensee holds global exclusive rights to commercialize ANG-3777 for this indication, except in Greater China, where licensed development and commercialization rights are granted exclusively to another party.
Licensor has ANG-3777 technology relating to acute organ injury, effective organ self-repair hindered by a naturally-occurring mismatch in timing of peak levels of HGF concentration relative to c-Met expression, an issue that could be addressed by augmenting the activity of HGF with our HGF mimetic during the time of maximal c-Met expression. ANG-3777 has demonstrated several similarities to HGF, including c-Met dependence and selective c-Met receptor activation, without acting on other growth factor receptors.
ANG-3777, an HGF Mimetic, is a small molecule designed to mimic the biological activity of HGF. HGF activates the c-Met receptor, which triggers a cascade of pathways with a central role in tissue repair and organ recovery that has been well established.
ANG-3777 for CSA-AKI means for patients at risk for developing CSA-AKI. This indication is a frequent complication of cardiac surgery.
ANG-3777 for DGF means to improve kidney function and reduce the severity of DGF following deceased-donor kidney transplantation in patients showing evidence of early kidney dysfunction.

UNI 494 is a patented pro-drug that was designed to be absorbed into the systemic circulation, and once absorbed, to release nicorandil into the bloodstream. By avoiding direct exposure to the gastrointestinal tract of nicorandil, it is believed that UNI 494 may be able to minimize or avoid the gastrointestinal side effects of nicorandil. Also, based on the rate of conversion of UNI 494 to nicorandil in the systemic circulation, UNI 494 may offer greater and/or more prolonged exposure to nicorandil for the treatment of patients with acute kidney injury.
Nicorandil, marketed in such products as Ikorel and Dancor, is indicated for the treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris. Nicorandil is a dual-action potassium channel opener that relaxes vascular smooth muscle through membrane hyperpolarization via increased transmembrane potassium conductance and increased intracellular concentration of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (GMP). It is shown to dilate normal and stenotic coronary arteries and reduces both ventricular preload and afterload.
AKI is a sudden episode of kidney failure or kidney damage (within the first 90 days of injury). After 90 days, the patient is considered to have progressed into CKD. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the gradual loss of kidney function that can get worse over time leading to lasting damage.
IPSCIO Record ID: 304790
IgA nephropathy (IgAN), also known as Berger's disease or synpharyngitic glomerulonephritis, is a disease of the kidney (or nephropathy) and the immune system; specifically it is a form of glomerulonephritis or an inflammation of the glomeruli of the kidney. Aggressive Berger's disease (a rarer form of the disease) can attack other major organs, such as the liver, skin and heart.
Licensee is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on identifying, developing and commercializing novel treatments in orphan indications, with an initial focus on renal and hepatic diseases with significant unmet medical needs. Licensee expects that Nefecon will be the first treatment on the market indicated for IgAN, and, that Nefecon can successfully treat IgAN patients, their kidney function will be preserved.
IPSCIO Record ID: 284140
c-Met inhibitors are a class of small molecules that inhibit the enzymatic activity of the c-Met tyrosine kinase, the receptor of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF). These inhibitors may have therapeutic application in the treatment of various types of cancers.

For Licensee's Right of Reference. Licensor grants to Licensee and its Sublicensees a Right of Reference to all data included in the Regulatory Submissions and Regulatory Approvals Controlled by Licensor and its Affiliates relating to a Collaboration Compound or Collaboration Products to the extent necessary to obtain Regulatory Approval of any Collaboration Product in the Field in any country of the ROW Territory.
Each Party grants the other Party a worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, perpetual, freely sublicensable right and license to exploit the Joint Technology in any manner without compensation.
The Agreement Compound means any compound with a molecular weight less than 1000 Da, other than a Collaboration Compound, that specifically targets the Collaboration Target and lacks material activity against other pharmaceutical targets (i.e. the IC50 value of such compound or product against another pharmaceutical target is more than thirty (30) times greater than the IC50 value of such compound or product against the Collaboration Target).
The Collaboration Compound means Licensor's proprietary compound designated by Licensor on the Effective Date as HMPL-504, with the generic name Volitinib, a novel targeted therapy and a highly selective inhibitor of the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase for the treatment of cancer. Volitinib, which will imminently enter Phase I testing, has been discovered and developed in China. Volitinib is a potent and highly selective c-Met inhibitor, which has been demonstrated to inhibit the growth of tumors in a series of pre-clinical disease models, especially for those tumors with aberrant c-Met signalling such as gene amplification or c-Met over-expression.
The key patent is Certain Triazolopyridines and Triazolopyrazines, Compositions Thereof and Methods of Use Therefor.
Savolitinib is a potential global first-in-class inhibitor of the mesenchymal epithelial transition factor, or c-Met, receptor tyrosine kinase, an enzyme which has been shown to function abnormally in many types of solid tumors. We developed savolitinib as a potent and highly selective oral inhibitor that was designed to address renal toxicity, the primary issue that has prevented all other selective c-Met inhibitors from gaining regulatory approval. In Phase I clinical studies, savolitinib has shown promising signs of clinical efficacy, causing tumor size reduction in patients with c-Met gene amplification in papillary renal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer and gastric cancer.
