According to Globaldata, it is involved in 5 clinical trials, of which 3 were completed, and 2 are ongoing. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of Sozinibercept’s valuation in its risk-adjusted NPV model (rNPV). Buy the model here.
The revenue for Sozinibercept is expected to reach an annual total of $316 mn by 2036 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.
Sozinibercept Overview
OPT-302 (VGX-300) is under development for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. The drug candidate is administered through the intravitreal route. It is a soluble fusion protein comprising of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR-3) fused to the Fc fragment of human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1). The drug candidate acts by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) and vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGF-D). It was also under development for the treatment of solid tumors.
