Generic Biopharmaceuticals
Biologics, or biopharmaceuticals, are protein therapeutics drugs that are produced using recombinant DNA technology. Over the past two decades, Biologics have revolutionized the treatment landscape in several therapeutic areas, especially in Oncology & Autoimmune disorders. The biggest advantage of Biologics over conventional medicines is that they are targeted and highly specific. However, Biologics are more complex and difficult to develop and are therefore relatively expensive. As a consequence, in developing countries they are unaffordable for most people.
We view generic biopharmaceuticals as an integral part of our mid to long term growth strategy and believe that building depth in development and manufacturing capabilities will be critical in accessing this opportunity. We have made significant efforts in this direction and have over the years succeeded in creating world class infrastructure and a highly capable team.

New Chemical Entities & Differentiated Formulations
We are engaged in the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule agents to address significant clinical unmet needs. We are also developing novel formulations of approved products whose safety and efficacy profiles are well characterized. Although distinct, both efforts seek to improve the care of patients suffering from serious diseases and impaired quality of life. Our therapeutic areas of focus are bacterial infections, metabolic disorders, and pain/inflammation.
Focus Therapeutic Areas
Bacterial infections: The incidence of hospital acquired infections is growing as drug-resistant bacteria are becoming more difficult to treat. There are significant challenges in adequately treating infections caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens such as staphylococcus aureas, pseudomonas aeruginosa, and acinetobacter baumannii. The resultant infections are often serious and life-threatening. We are working to identify new approaches to treating these infections with products that have improved efficacy and tolerability profiles.
Metabolic Disorders: Cardiovascular Disease is one of the leading causes of death globally. Many patients suffering from CVD are also afflicted with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and obesity. While there are several treatment options for a few of these conditions, a need persists for effective and safe therapies that address insulin resistance, obesity, low HDL cholesterol and atherosclerosis. We have several programs targeting one or more of these disease conditions.
Pain/Inflammation: The prevalence of chronic and acute pain is growing steadily as our population ages and diagnosis rates improve. Although
there are a number of medications to treat chronic and acute pain, new treatments that are both safe and tolerable remain essential. We are developing products with improved efficacy and side effect profiles in several areas of acute and chronic pain.
Our most advanced Differentiated Formulations efforts are in dermatology, where we have launched several effective and innovative products through our wholly owned subsidiary Promius Pharma. Headquartered in Bridgewater, New Jersey (USA), Promius Pharma is a branded specialty company with a portfolio of in licensed dermatological products and an internal pipeline of topical products in different stages of development. Promius Pharma’s current portfolio contains innovative topical products for the treatment of psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis.
For more information about Promius Pharma, please visit www.promiuspharma.com
Promiseb™ Topical Cream
Promiseb™ is contraindicated in persons with a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. Please see accompanying important safety information and full prescribing info.

Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd., trading as Dr. Reddy's, founded in 1984 by Dr. K. Anji Reddy , has
become India's second biggestpharmaceutical company. Dr. Anji Reddy had worked in the publicly-owned Indian
Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Reddy's manufactures and markets a wide range of pharmaceuticals in India
and overseas. The company has over 190 medications, 60 active pharmaceutical ingredients for drug
manufacture, diagnostic kits, critical care, and biotechnology products.
Dr. Reddy's began as a supplier to Indian drug manufacturers, but it soon started exporting to other less-
regulated markets that had the advantage of not having to spend time and money on a manufacturing plant that
that would gain approval from a drug licensing body such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). By
the early 1990s, the expanded scale and profitability from these unregulated markets enabled the company to
begin focusing on getting approval from drug regulators for their formulations and bulk drug manufacturing plants
in more-developed economies. This allowed their movement into regulated markets such as the US and Europe.
By 2007, Dr. Reddy's had six FDA-plants producing active pharmaceutical ingredients in India and seven FDA-
inspected and ISO 9001(quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental management) certified plants making patient-
ready medications – five of them in India and two in the UK.[1]
In 2010, the family-controlled Dr Reddys denied[2] that it was in talks to sell its generics business in India to US
phamarceutical giant Pfizer,[3] which had been suing the company for alleged patent infringement after Dr Reddys
announced that it intended to produce a generic version of Atorvastatin, marketed by Pfizer as Lipitor, an anti-
cholesterol medication.[4][5]Reddys was already linked to UK pharmaceuticals multinational Glaxo Smithkline .[6]

[edit]Generics goldmine
With drug prices high in most OECD member states, health services came to rely on generic versions of drugs
rather than the branded 'originals' – in the UK this was made the result of advice to National Health
Service doctors from the country's health department and in the US by the 1984 Hatch-Waxman Act or Drug
Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act [7] and the financial liberalization of the mid 1990s[8] gave what
had been 'third world' pharmaceuticals firms a chance of getting into more lucrative markets, using their ability to
reverse-engineer. In 1997, the U.S. FDA created an incentive for generics companies to engage branded drug
makers in court, with the introduction of the Para 4 filing law, in a bid to generate competition. The law rewarded
generic manufacturers for challenging existing patents instead of waiting for them to expire.
[edit]India: patents and profits
In the 60 years since India's independence, the domestic pharmaceutical industry has been shaped primarily by
regulation. Initially, multinationals had a near monopoly on pharmaceuticals. They imported and marketed
complete formulations in India, mainly low-cost generics along with a few highly priced specialty drugs. When the
government increased pressure to deter the import of finished products, multinationals set up formulating units
and continued importing bulk drugs.
In the 1960s, the Indian government laid the foundation for a domestic pharmaceuticals industry by promoting
the state-owned Hindustan Antibiotics Ltd. and Indian Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Ltd. for the manufacture of
bulk drugs. However, the multinationals maintained their lead because of their technical expertise, financial
muscle, and ability to move innovations from one market to another. The high cost of original research, the
sophisticated scientific knowledge needed and a lack of financing options worked against the private-sectorIndian
companies.
This state of affairs changed with the 1970 Indian Patent Act, whereby substances used in foods and
pharmaceuticals were not granted product patents. Process patents were granted for a period of five years from
the date of grant or seven years from the date of filing, whichever was earlier. Process modifications were easier
to accomplish, and there was a rapid influx of domestic manufacturers. These companies generally started with
bulk drugs and gradually progressed into complete medications. The multinationals were constrained by their
parent companies' product ranges but the Indian producers could make almost anything. Not paying product
patent royalties cut the cost of local manufacture and helped Indian producers thrive.
Shortly thereafter, the Drugs Price Control Order put a ceiling on prices of certain mass-usage formulations.
Since selling at such low prices could cause discontent in their home markets, multinationals dramatically
curtailed new product launches, further boosting India's domestic players.
Under the Foreign Exchange Regulations Act in the late 1970s, the multinationals had to reduce their stakes in
Indian ventures to 40%, or comply with certain export obligations and keep their equity stake at 51%. Many
multinationals preferred not to do business in that climate – another shot in the arm for India's pharmaceutical
industry.
In 1986, Reddy's started operations on branded formulations. Within a year Reddy's had launched Norilet,
Reddy's first recognized brand in India. But, thanks to its superior process technology, Reddy's scored a big
success with Omez, its branded omezaprole – ulcer and reflux oesophagitis medication – launched at half the
price of other brands on the Indian market at that time.
Within a year, Reddy's became the first Indian company to export the active ingredients for pharmaceuticals to
Europe. In 1987, Reddy's started to transform itself from a supplier of pharmaceutical ingredients to other
manufacturers into a manufacturer of pharmaceutical products.
[edit]The passage from India
First it moved into Russia, forming a joint venture with the country's biggest pharmaceuticals producer Biomed in
1992, pulling out in 1995 amid accusations of scandal, involving 'a significant material loss due to the activities of
Moscow's branch of Reddy's Labs with the help of Biomed's chief executive[9] selling the joint venture to the
Kremlin-friendly Sistema group and buying the whole company in 2002.
In 1993, Reddy's entered into a joint venture in the Middle East and created two formulation units there and in
Russia. Reddy's exported bulk drugs to these formulation units, which then converted them into finished
products. In 1994, Reddy's started targeting the US generic market by building state of art manufacturing facility.
Reddy's path into new drug discovery involved targeting speciality generics products in western markets to gain
drug discovery abilities. The reason why development of speciality drugs was an important link to the
development of new chemical entities is that all the elements that are involved in an NCE effort, such as
innovation in the laboratory, developing the compound, sending the sales team to the market etc. are also stages
in the development of a specialty drug. Reddy's also invested heavily in building R&D labs and is the only Indian
company to have significant R&D being undertaken overseas. Dr. Reddy's Research Foundation was established
in 1992 and dedicated to research in area of new drug discovery. At first, the foundation's drug research strategy
revolved around searching for analogues but its changed focus to innovative R&D, hiring new scientists –
especially Indian students studying abroad on doctoral and post-doctoral courses. In 2000, foundation set up
a US lab in Atlanta, dedicated to discovery and design of novel therapeutics. The lab is called Reddy US
Therapeutics Inc (RUSTI) and its main aim is the discovery of next-generation drugs
using genomics and proteomics. Reddy's research thrust focused on large niche areas in western markets – anti-
cancer, anti-diabetes, cardiovascular and anti-infection drugs.
Reddy's international marketing successes were built on a strong manufacturing base which itself was a result
of inorganic growth through acquisition of international and national facilities. Reddy's merged Cheminor Drug
Limited (CDL) with primary aim of supplying APIs to the technically demanding markets of North
America and Europe. This merger also gave Reddy's entry into value added generics business in the regulated
markets of APIs.
By 1997, Reddy's was ready for the next major step. From being an API and bulk drug supplier to regulated
markets like the USA and the UK, and a branded formulations supplier in unregulated markets like India and
Russia, Reddy's made the transition into generics by filing an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) in the
USA. The same year, Reddy's out-licensed a molecule for clinical trials to Novo Nordisk,
a Danish pharmaceutical company.
It strengthened its Indian manufacturing operations by acquiring American Remedies Ltd. in 1999. This
acquisition made Reddy’s the third largest pharmaceutical company in India, afterRanbaxy and Glaxo (I) Ltd.,
with a full spectrum of pharmaceutical products, which included bulk drugs, intermediates, finished dosages,
chemical synthesis, diagnostics and biotechnology.
Reddy’s started exploiting Para 4 filing as a strategy in bringing new drugs to the market at a faster pace. In 1999
it submitted a Para 4 application for Omeprazole- the drug it had so successfully marketed in India. In December
2000, Reddy’s had undertaken its first commercial launch of a generic product in the USA., and its first product
with market exclusivity was launched there in August 2001. The same year, it also became the first non-
Japanese pharmaceutical company from the Asia-Pacific region to obtain a New York Stock Exchangelisting.
Each of these achievements was path breaking for the Indian pharmaceutical industry.
In 2001 when Reddy’s became the first Indian company to launch the generic drug, fluoxetine (a generic version
of Eli Lilly and Company’s Prozac) with 180 day market exclusivity in the USA. Eli Lilly's antidepressant drug
Prozac had sales in excess of $1 billion per year in the late nineties. Barr Laboratories of the U.S. obtained
exclusivity for all of the approved dosage forms (10 mg, 20 mg) except one (40 mg), which was obtained by
Reddy’s. Lilly had numerous other patents surrounding the drug compound and had already enjoyed a long
period of patent protection. The case was heard twice by the Federal Circuit court, and Reddy’s won both
hearings. The importance of market exclusivity is illustrated by the fact that. Reddy’s generated nearly $70 million
in revenue during the six-month period. With such phenomenal returns at stake, Reddy’s was beginning to
gamble on litigation that could cost millions of dollars, depending on the length of the trial.
The fluoxetine marketing success was followed by the launch of ibuprofen tablets 400, 600 and 800 mg in the US
under its own brand name, in January 2003. Direct marketing under the Reddy’s brand name represented a
significant step in the company’s efforts to build a strong and sustainable US generic business. It was the first
step in building Reddy’s fully fledged distribution network in the US market. This was much on the lines of the
Indian software majors who have marketing professionals in the US.
In 2001 Reddy’s completed its US initial public offering of $132.8 million American Depositary Receipts issue and
also listed on the New York Stock exchange. Funds raised from the USinitial public offering helped Reddy’s
move into international production – and take over technology-based companies.
In 2002, Reddy’s started its European operations by acquiring two pharmaceutical firms in the UK. The
acquisition of BMS Laboratories and its wholly owned subsidiary, Meridian UK allowed Reddy’s to expand
geographically and gave company an opportunity to enter the European market. In 2003 Reddy’s also invested
US$. 5.25 million in equity capital of Bio Sciences ltd.
Auriegene Discovery Technologies, a contract research company was established as a fully owned subsidiary of
Reddy’s in 2002, to gain experience of drug discovery through contract research for other Pharma companies.
Reddy’s entered into a venture investment type of agreement with the Indian bank, ICICI. Under the terms of the
agreement, ICICI Venture funds the development, registration and legal costs related to the commercialization of
ANDAs on a pre-determined basis. On commercialization of these products, Dr. Reddy's pays ICICI Venture
royalty on net sales for a period of 5 years. Reddy’s successful growth into a fully integrated pharmaceutical
company in less than a decade was founded on a successful and targeted program of inorganic growth and
investments in process R&D. It had chosen a high risk-high gain strategy to growth by going into direct
competition with existing patent holders. A major challenge for Reddy’s is to find ways to de-risk its overall
strategy. One way may lie in managing the cash flows from the ‘safer’ API and formulations businesses. Another
way may be to seek out more experienced partners for the R&D business or use acquisitions to boost R&D
resources and revenues. It has chosen the global route and went on an acquiring spree.
In March 2002, Dr. Reddy’s acquired BMS Laboratories, Beverley, and it is wholly owned subsidiary Meridian
Healthcare, for EUR 14.81 million. These companies deal in oral solids, liquids and packaging, with
manufacturing facilities in London and Beverley in the UK. Recently, Dr. Reddy’s entered into an R&D and
commercialization agreement with Argenta Discovery Ltd., a private drug development company based in the
UK, for the treatment of COPD.
With growing success in the generics market, Reddy’s also came to realize the need for developing marketing
and distribution capabilities in the USA Reddy’s was considering several options for marketing
the hypertension product in 2003. The company already had one tie-up with Pharmaceutical Resources, Inc. to
market Fluoxentine 40 mg tablets. It also had a tie-up with Par Pharmaceuticals Inc., to produce and
market over-the-counter drugs in the U.S. In addition to the United States, Reddy’s generics business had
established a presence in the UK, is a platform for expansion into other countries in Europe. Reddy’s also plans
to expand its presence in Canada and South Africa. Its API business had sales in over 60 countries, with the US
and India being the most significant revenue contributors. The branded formulations business was active in over
30 countries and Reddy’s was a significant player in the Indian and Russian markets. The business planned to
significantly increase its presence in China, Brazil and Mexico in the near future.
Dr. Reddy’s entered into a 10-year agreement with Rheoscience A/S of Denmark for the joint development and
commercialization of Balaglitazone (DRF-2593), a molecule for the treatment of type-2 diabetes. Rheoscience
holds this product’s marketing rights for the European Union and China, while the rights for the US and the rest of
the world will be held by Dr. Reddy’s. Dr. Reddy’s conducted clinical trials of its cardiovascular drug RUS 3108
in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 2005.The trials were conducted to study the safety and the pharmacokinetic
profiles of the drug, which is intended for the treatment of atherosclerosis, a major cause of cardiovascular
disorders.
Dr. Reddy’s entered into a marketing agreement with Eurodrug Laboratories, a pharmaceutical company based
in Netherlands, for improving its product portfolio for respiratory diseases. It introduced a second-generation
xanthine bronchodilator, Doxofylline, which is used for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.
In 2004, Reddy’s acquired Trigenesis Therapeutics Inc; the US based private dermatology company. This
acquisition gave Reddy’s access to certain products and proprietary technologies in dermatology segment. Dr.
Reddy’s Para 4 application strategy for generic business received a severe set back when Reddy’s lost the
patent challenge in case of Pfizer’s drug Norvasc (amlodipine maleate). Amlodipine maleate , the generic version
of Pfizer's Norvasc, is indicated for the treatment of hypertension and angina. The cost involved in patent
litigation as well as the strategic reversal affected Reddy’s plans to start speciality business in the US generic
markets.
In March 2006, Dr. Reddy’s acquired Betapharm Arzneimittel GmbH from 3i for EUR 480 million. This is one of
the largest-ever foreign acquisitions by an Indian pharmaceutical company. Betapharm is Germany’s fourth-
largest generics pharmaceuticals covering 3.5% market share including 150 active pharmaceutical ingredients.
Reddy’s has promoted India’s first integrated drug development company Perlecan Pharma Pvt Ltd together with
ICICI ventures capital fund management company Ltd and Citigroup Venture Capital International growth
partnership Mauritius Ltd. The combined entity will undertake clinical development and out-licensing of New
Chemical Entity Assets.
Dr. Reddy's is presently licensed by Merck & Co. to sell an authorized generic version of the popular
drug simvastatin (Zocor) in the USA. Since Dr. Reddy's has a license from Merck, it is not subject to the
exclusivity period on generic simvastatin of 180 days from June 23, 2006, which is split between Ranbaxy
Laboratories (also from India) and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries .[10]
As on 2006, Dr. Reddy’s Labs crossed US $500 M in revenues flowing from segments such as APIs, Branded
Formulations and Generics with the former two segments accounting for almost 75% of revenues. On an overall
note, Dr. Reddy’s controls the entire supply chain and offers high-quality products at competitive prices at the
opportune time. It deals in and manages all the processes, from the development of the API to the submission of
finished dosage dossiers to the regulatory agencies. It has moved from strength to strength and has built a
variety of partnerships as well as acquisitions across its key overseas markets, US and Europe and had laid a
strong foundation and is well poised to take advantage of opportunities in international markets.
[edit]Drug discovery troubles
Dr. Reddy's spun off its drug discovery and research wing into a separate company called Perlecan Pharma
Private Limited in September 2005 which was hailed as an innovative move at that time but it had to be wound
down in 2008 due to funding constraints.[11] Dr. Reddy's was the first Indian pharma company to attempt such an
effort to de-couple risk of drug discovery from the parent company by creating a separate company with external
source of funding. Perlecan Pharma was part funded by ICICI Venture Capital and Citigroup Venture
International, both of which held a 43% stake in Perlecan for an estimated $22.5 million. However, the company
had to buy back the Perlecan shares from ICICI and Citigroup as the venture capitalists wanted out because of
their doubts in the commercial viability of the drugs candidates that were in Perlecan's pipeline. Dr. Reddy's
bought back the shares in July and Perlecan became a wholly owned subsidiary, however in the board meeting
set for 23 October, the company is set to amalgamate/absorb Perlecan, thereby making it an inhouse research
facility, like before 2005.[11]
In 2009, the company did a U-turn and has handed over discovery research and related Intellectual property to
its Bangalore based subsidiary, with the possibility of spinning it off as a different entity altogether. "The company
may be hoping to find a strategic partner in the future to share the risks and research funding." [12]
[edit]Diabetes drug in Phase III trial
The Phase III testing of the company's diabetes drug candidate, Balaglitazone, was delayed reportedly due to the
Danish research partner conducting the clinical trials facing financial problems[13] Rheoscience's parent company
Nordic Bioscience is believed to have undertaken to provide funds to Rheoscience to continue the trials and thus
live up to the contractual obligations to Dr. Reddy's.
In January 2010, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories announced that its first late-stage trial of the experimental diabetes
drug Balaglitazone hit its primary endpoint for the reduction of blood glucose levels. Dr Reddy's claims the data
"leaves the program on track to an eventual regulatory approval".[14]
