Transgene gains from Roche deal

19 August 2007

French biopharmaceutical firm Transgene has posted a strong increase in total revenues and a move into profitability for the first six months of 2007, helped by progress for its strategic partnership with Swiss drug major Roche on TG 4001/R3484, in development for the treatment of precancerous cervical lesions caused by human papilloma virus infection.

Turnover for the reporting period reached 24.7 million euros ($33.7 million) compared with 2.8 million in the like, year-earlier six months, resulting in a net profit of 8.5 million euros versus a loss of 10.6 million euros. Contributing to this result were payments from Roche, including 13.0 million euros upfront and a 10.0 million-euro near-term milestone received in June.
