Takeda Chem, Eli Lilly to promote diabetes drug

TOKYO, May 25 (Reuters) - Takeda Chemical Industries Ltd (4502.T) said
on Monday that it and Eli Lilly and Co had agreed to jointly promote
Takeda's new diabetes drug Actos in the United States.
Takeda aims to start selling the drug by the beginning of the next
century, the company said in a statement.

Takeda also said it would set up a new company and make it a wholly
owned subsidiary of Takeda America Holdings Inc.

The new firm, Takeda Pharmaceuticals America Inc, will market Actos once
it gets U.S. approval.

Promoting the drug includes collecting clinical data on the drug, which
must be done before its launch.
