02/9/2011 18:57 | Bit confused here, why would we take up the offer of placing shares at 11p, when we can just buy now at just over 8p and save almost 40% straight away ? very confused here. | daytraders | |
20/8/2011 12:05 | sicilian_ken - have you read the 4th August RNS? If you have, you will know that, despite the Russians taking a 30% (after dilution) stake in LPX, there will be legal safeguards in the agreement for its successor Xenetic's independence. The whole purpose of this move by Lipo is to accelerate orphan drugs to market, and this deal looks to promote a symbiotic relationship, since the Russian's need LPX's technology and patents. Of course there are risks, but in my opinion it is unhelpful, if not downright disingenuous, to make inflammatory statements such as you make above. | 123asd | |

19/8/2011 20:16 | bw2, I suggest you read Anna Politkovskaya's "Putin's Russia" (bar Chapter 2 which is a little tedious). If you do, you wouldn't touch any company connected to a Russian company with a barge pole. | sicilian_kan | |
18/8/2011 11:20 | ''SynBio is a newly-formed Russian company whose majority shareholder will be the multi-billion dollar Russian state-owned nanotechnology investment company, Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies (www.Rusnano.com). '' Rusano own 40% of SynBio SynBio own 30% of Lipoxen Therefore the Russian State own 12% of Lipoxen I have no problem with this .... why ? 1. It shows that the state of Russia think that Lipoxen Technology/platforms are good. 2. It bodes well for 'fast track' development of Lipoxen platforms/technologi 3. It also bodes well for new fast track development of cancer related drugs , the IP and technology that has been gained through the recent German acquisition. 4. Since the Russian State own 12% of Lipoxen through their 40% stake of SynBio it follows that Lipoxen will be looked upon favorably by them regarding future drug developments/require The rationale behind the above is that Russia has embarked upon a policy of NOT paying the west for overly expensive developed drugs. Instead it is going to make it's own 'in-house' ..... firstly for it's own requirements .... but then secondly to sell to the west to make a profit. Lipoxen effectively has the Russian State as a partner/backer. | buywell2 | |
13/8/2011 10:10 | Like I said ....Lipoxen has been chosen by the Russian State , as a vehicle to develop innovative drugs for their use , and then to sell to the rest of the world for profit. ''It has attracted investment from the government-owned investment company Rusnano, which will have a 41.4% holding and other Russian firms involved include Cryonix and Pharmsynthez.'' ''The lead R&D partner for the project is the UK's Lipoxen'' Russian firms set up $113 million biotech venture World News | August 09, 2011 Bookmark and Share Kevin Grogan Russian firms set up $113 million biotech venture Several Russian companies have linked up to establish a joint venture designed to develop innovative treatments in the country. The SynBio project has been initiated by the Human Stem Cells Institute (HSCI), Russia's leading biotechnology company, which will have a 28.1% stake in the venture. It has attracted investment from the government-owned investment company Rusnano, which will have a 41.4% holding and other Russian firms involved include Cryonix and Pharmsynthez. The lead R&D partner for the project is the UK's Lipoxen, which is in the process of merging with Germany's SymbioTec. SynBio will focus on developing treatments based on three technological platforms, ie it will look at drugs engineered from cell-based technologies for the treatment of chronic diffuse liver disease, plus treatments based on the human nuclear protein histone H1 for cancer and other diseases.

10/8/2011 07:51 | There are synergies for both sides, which is why the deal is being done.

The SynBio project has been initiated by the Human Stem Cells Institute (HSCI), Russia's leading biotechnology company, which will have a 28.1% stake in the venture.

10/8/2011 07:23 | 'It would appear that Lipoxen has been chosen as the vehicle to develop/acquire the new drugs that Russia are in dire need of.' no offence buywell, but that's really just nonsense If you have GCSF for example, with cheaper biosimilar versions on their way 1. you have no dire need 2. longer half-life versions would not be what they want 3. there would be a much better solution The Russian organisation is investing because most likely, it thinks the technology and products are promising/ wants to use the tech [NOTE: nothing negative there, so dont go deramping!] - thanks dahmmy | the_doctor | |

06/8/2011 11:15 | Here's a better translation of that article in Russian: "Pharmsynthez" acquires "SinBio" "Pharmsynthez" acquired 100% of "SinBio." Change of ownership recorded February 24, 2011 Shareholders of Open Society "Institute of Human Stem Cells" (HSCI), met March 17, 2011 to discuss property contribution to the authorized capital of "SinBio" project with the State Corporation of Nanotechnologies ("Rosnano"). The purpose of this transaction is the initial consolidation of the assets associated with the development and introduction of new drugs in preparation for the joint project. Alienable property contributed to a contribution to charter capital, "SinBio" to include intangible assets HSCI relating to intellectual property, and owned a stake in the HSCI SymbioTec GmbH (Germany). Total market value of assets disposed of by the board of directors determined on the basis of the evaluation report and of 506.944 million rubles. In accordance with the revaluation produced, these assets will be placed on the balance of "HSCI" on the new value. As previously reported, the supervisory board of "Rosnano" approved the participation of corporations in the investment project, which is an observer HSCI. The project will develop, manufacture and introduce nine drugs, using nanocomposite materials. The Russian and world market is expected to take three innovative products based on histone proteins for the treatment of acute leukemia and cardiovascular disease. All preparations of the project are currently undergoing various stages of preclinical and clinical trials in Russia and Europe. The project also involved of "Pharmsynthez." The company "Pharmsynthez" was founded in 1996 to develop new drugs and their delivery into the body, as well as innovative technologies for drug ingredients.

06/8/2011 10:23 | Note my previous comment about Lipoxen now having the weight of the Russian Government behind it ................. I think the numbers mentioned might be enough to get the products to market. RUSNANO Signs Investment Agreement for the SynBio Innovative Pharmaceuticals Project Moscow, Russia | Posted on August 5th, 2011 The partners have established limited liability company SynBio to carry out the project, which has a total budget of 3.2 billion rubles. Of that sum, RUSNANO will co-invest up to 1.3 billion rubles. The other founders will co-invest up to 1.9 billion rubles in the form of monetary resources, intellectual property rights, and shareholding in their own and subsidiary companies. The investment period will be four years, and the project is slated to run seven. The SynBio project will develop and launch nine pharmaceutical products for Russian and international markets. The medicines are based on three technological platforms: stem cell technologies for treatment of chronic diffuse liver disease (the Gemacell platform) intranuclear human protein histone H1 for treatment of cancers and other diseases (the Histone platform) sustained-release drugs using polysialic acid-biobetters for treatment of diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, chronic kidney disease, and other illnesses (the PolyXen® platform). Biobetters resemble biotech pharmaceuticals that already exist in the market, and they differ in that they surpass the biotech preparations by certain characteristics, such as effectiveness. All the medicines in the project are currently undergoing pre-clinical tests or clinical trials in research laboratories in Russia and Europe. All the pharmaceuticals developed within the project are expected to be sold in the Russian and international markets. Sales of SynBio's drugs in 2015 are forecasted at 700 million rubles. "Two facilities will be established for commercial production of the innovative medicines, one each in Leningrad and Moscow oblasts," explained Olga Shpichko, RUSNANO managing director. "Manufacturing will be set up jointly with our German and British partners. We regard this as a step toward entering the international pharmaceuticals market." Artur Isaev, general director of the Human Stem Cells Institute: "It would be difficult to over-estimate the importance of today's events for us and our partners. This is the first time that a Russian company has initiated a M&A in the biotechnology sector to serve the Russian and global markets.

06/8/2011 10:06 | Lipoxen in transforming Russian deal 05/08/2011 Robert Tyerman Russian pharmaceutical player Dmitry Genkin's SynBio company is paying £12.2 million for 30 per cent of drug discoverer Lipoxen (LPX). In a series of transformational deals, SynBio is paying a premium 11p a share for a placing by AIM-quoted Lipoxen, which is also issuing premium-priced shares and warrants to major shareholder Serum Institute of India (SIL) and proposing to change its name from Lipoxen to Xenetic Biosciences. After raising £14.4 million from SynBio, SIL and a hoped-for £1.95 million from an open offer to shareholders, London-based Lipoxen says it intends to buy German-registered leukaemia specialist SymbioTech, where a Genkin-controlled company is a significant shareholder, for £8.8 million in shares. Lipioxen/Xenetic will also licence six of its product candidates to SynBio in Russia and regain from SIL development rights to 14 drug candidates. Scott Maguire, chief executive officer of Lipoxen, argues these deals 'will afford the company independence as a speciality drug developer with high-value orphan drug product candidates which have shorter-term market launch potential.' Investors have reacted coolly and Lipoxen shares, which hit 75p nine years ago, are 0.13p off today at 8.75p, valuing the company at £15 million. They have speculative potential. Note Dr Dmitry D Genkin Non-executive Director Dr Dmitry Genkin joined Lipoxen as a non-executive Director in 2000. He has the Russian equivalent of an MD in Internal Therapy and has attended training courses in drug delivery at The School of Pharmacy, University of London (1992) and the Department of Clinical Pharmacology at Karolinska Hospital, Stockholm (1992-1993). Dmitry was formerly Chief Executive Officer of ASGL Research Laboratories ZAO, a company which he founded in 1994 to run drug development programmes focusing on viral and cancer diseases. He also served as executive Chairman of Pharmavit OAO and Scientific Director of Pharmavit Holding ZAO. Dmitry is currently a partner and director of FDS Pharma. | buywell2 | |
