Glenmark enters into a settlement and license agreement with Sepracor Inc PDF Print E-mail

Aug 11, 2010

US specialty pharmaceutical company Sepracor Inc, owned by Japan's Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co since April, and Mumbai-based Generics maker Glenmark   have announced the settlement of their patent dispute over generic Eszopiclone tablets, which Sepracor markets under the brand name Lunesta.

Sepracor entered into a settlement and license agreement with the Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd and its wholly -owned US subsidiary Glenmark Generics Inc, US, under which Glenmark would be permitted to launch its generic product after 30 November 2013, or two and one half months prior to the expiry of Sepracor's US Patent 6,444,673, or 30 May 2014 if Sepracor obtains paediatric exclusivity for Lunesta.

The settlement and license agreement and consent judgement and order also would permit Glenmark to launch its generic product earlier under certain circumstances, which the two companies did not disclose.

The court's approval of the proposed consent judgement and order of permanent injunction would dismiss Sepracor Inc and Glenmark's respective claims and defenses without prejudice in the consolidated litigation currently pending against Glenmark and other defendants.

Lunesta is available in 1mg, 2mg and 3mg tablets and is indicated for the treatment of insomnia.

According to IMS Health data for the 12 month period ending March 2010, Lunesta achieved annual sales of USD 741 million and is the second highest selling branded prescription medication in its class.

Calculating risk-taker PDF Print E-mail

August 5, 2010

Sudhir Mehta has taken the Torrent Group into ever-newer areas. What started in the early 1970s as Trinity Laboratories has turned into a $1.41 billion global business conglomerate with diversified interests in pharma and power. The company was founded by the late U N.

The 1954-born Sudhir Mehta consolidated the initial success of the company and put the emphasis on exports. He also initiated the diversification of the Torrent Group into the power sector, and made Torrent Pharma one of India’s biggest exporters of pharma products. He took office as the Chairman of the Torrent conglomerate in April 1998.

Displaying an astute entrepreneurial mind and an appetite for calculated risks, Mehta forayed into the turbulent Russian market at a time when the region was embroiled in deep political turmoil. Today, Torrent Pharma has a strong presence in the European countries, Russia and Brazil. Sudhir and his brother Samir Mehta have added to the assets of the company by establishing another pharma plant at Chattral, apart from commissioning a Penicillin G plant.

Flush with funds from the success of Torrent Pharma in the Soviet Union, Mehta decided to diversify into the power sector in the late 1980s. His first move was to acquire a company that manufactures power cables (now called Torrent Cables Ltd.).

In 1991, the Central government announced major policy changes enabling the Indian private sector to enter the power sector. Around this time, Sudhir quietly started acquiring shares of the then Ahmedabad Electricity Company Ltd and Surat Electricity Co. Ltd., gaining a controlling stake in both by the late 1990s.

Simultaneously, he announced plans to set up a 655 Mw dual fuel combined cycle power project in Gujarat. He commissioned the project within the budgeted schedule and cost, and then proposed setting up the 1,147.5 Mw Sugen gas-fired power station, which was recently dedicated to the nation. It is the largest gas-based power project of an independent power producer.

Today the Torrent Group has a strong presence throughout the entire power sector value chain — generation, transmission and distribution. Torrent Power has a total generation capacity of 1650 Mw and plans are afoot to add an additional 6,000-8,000 Mw generation capacity. It distributes power to over 2 million customers in the cities of Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar and Surat in Gujarat and in Bhiwandi in Maharashtra. Torrent Power has also been awarded the distribution franchise for Agra and Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh.

Sudhir and Samir of recently made their maiden entry in the Forbes India Rich List. They have a net worth of $2.02 billion and are at number 23 in the list of the 100 richest Indians.

 
MNCs gaining control on Indian drug market PDF Print E-mail

August 5, 2010

The parliamentary standing committee on health has asked the government to pay attention to the selling out of major Indian Pharma companies to multinationals, whose increasing hold over the drug market it says will make essential medicines costlier.

The committee in its report presented to the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday noted that a large number of pharma companies have sold majority of their shares to multinational companies.

'Promoters of some Indian pharma companies like Piramal Healthcare, Ranbaxy, Shantha Biotech and Dabur Pharma have already sold their controlling shares to US, Japanese and German MNCs,' said the report.

It asked the government to ensure that major Indian pharma companies remain in Indian hands.

'The committee would appreciate if the ministry of health and family welfare takes up the issue with the ministry of chemical and fertilizers without any delay and come up with policy option to ensure that major Indian pharma companies are in Indian hands,' it said.

Pointing out that 61 drugs worth over $80 billion are going off patent between 2011 and 2013 making it possible for domestic pharma companies to produce cheaper version of the drug, the committee expressed concern over the increasing hold of MNCs.

'These developments would result in MNCs gaining market supremacy and essential medicines are bound to be costlier,' it added.

According to the health ministry, India is the third largest producer of generic drugs in the world and exports medicines to nearly 156 countries.
