About Regeneron Pharmaceuticals
Regeneron is a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company that discovers, invents, develops, manufactures, and commercializes medicines for the treatment of serious medical conditions. Regeneron markets three products in the United States, EYLEA® (aflibercept) Injection, ZALTRAP® (ziv-aflibercept) Injection for Intravenous Infusion, and ARCALYST® (rilonacept) Injection for Subcutaneous Use; ZALTRAP is co-commercialized with Sanofi. Phase 3 studies are in progress with EYLEA in two additional indications and with product candidates sarilumab and REGN727. Regeneron has active research and development programs in many disease areas, including ophthalmology, inflammation, cancer, and hypercholesterolemia.
The Company's ability to develop product candidates is enhanced by the application of several proprietary technologies that Regeneron has incorporated into a comprehensive drug discovery and development process. This process is designed to thoroughly understand the biology of specific diseases, discover potential therapeutic candidates, and evaluate these candidates in clinical trials. One specific area of Regeneron expertise is the rapid development of fully-human monoclonal antibodies. In November 2007, Regeneron and sanofi entered into a global, strategic collaboration to discover, develop, and commercialize fully-human therapeutic antibodies utilizing Regeneron's proprietary VelociSuite of technologies.
