According to Globaldata, it is involved in 15 clinical trials, of which 7 were completed, 7 are ongoing, and 1 was terminated. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of Uproleselan sodium’s valuation in its risk-adjusted NPV model (rNPV). Buy the model here.
The revenue for Uproleselan sodium is expected to reach an annual total of $41 mn by 2034 in the US based off GlobalData’s Expiry Model. The drug’s revenue forecasts along with estimated costs are used to measure the value of an investment opportunity in that drug, otherwise known as net present value (NPV). Applying the drug’s phase transition success rate to remaining R&D costs and likelihood of approval (LoA) to sales related costs provides a risk-adjusted NPV model (rNPV). The rNPV model is a more conservative valuation measure that accounts for the risk of a drug in clinical development failing to progress.
