Lilly, Amgen Ink Manufacturing Deal for Coronavirus Antibodies

Eli Lilly & Company LLY signed a global manufacturing collaboration
with Amgen AMGN to increase the supply capacity of COVID-19
antibody therapies that Lilly is currently developing.

Lilly is making rigorous efforts to develop several potential neutralizing
ntibodies for the treatment COVID-19.

It is developing an antibody therapy candidate LYCoV555 in collaboration
with AbCellera. Interim data fromthe phase II study (BLAZE-1) evaluating
LY-CoV555 to treat mild-to-moderate recently-diagnosed COVID-19
patients was released this week. The study met the primary endpoint.
Interim results from the same showed that treatment with LY-CoV555
led to a reduced rate of hospitalization for patients while consistent
effects of viral reduction were seen at earlier time points.

Additionally, Lilly is conducting a separate phase III study on LYCoV555
for the prevention of COVID-19 at nursing homes

Lilly also has a separate collaboration with China-based Junshi
Biosciences to co-develop therapeutic antibodies for COVID-19.
The companies have completed dosing in a phase I study on
LY-CoV016, the lead antibody from the alliance.

Further, Lilly is conducting a phase II study on an antibody that
targets Angiopoietin 2, which has been observed to be elevated
in COVID-19 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome
or ARDS.

The Amgen agreement will allow Lilly to increase production of
the antibody therapies if any of the above candidates gets a
regulatory approval.

Lilly’s stock has risen 16% this year so far against its industry’s
increase of 0.9%.
