Pharmaceuticals are generally classified as new drugs or generic drugs, while some new drugs are also classified as long-listed drugs. These latter drugs are new drugs with expired patents but, because they have been used over many years in clinical practice, much expertise exists regarding their safety and usage.
Furthermore, experience and research from medical professionals have indicated that some of these medicines may have indications other than those for which they were originally intended. Like new medicines, these drugs await development for use against diseases for which no particularly effective medications are available. To discover similar new uses for our long-listed drugs, the Company is supporting research through collaboration with external agencies.
