Thalidomide is a Small Molecule owned by Bristol-Myers Squibb, and is involved in 41 clinical trials, of which 38 were completed, and 3 are ongoing.
Thalidomide possesses immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and antiangiogenic properties. By activating cereblon (a component of a cullin ring E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme complex), thalidomide mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of the substrate proteins, leading to direct cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects. It also acts by suppressing the excessive tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production and down-modulation of selected cell surface adhesion molecules involved in leukocyte migration.
The revenue for Thalidomide is expected to reach a total of $706m through 2038. This change impacts the valuation of this asset and is an important factor to understand the current value of the drug in a clinical process. View the complete picture with the Thalidomide NPV Report.
