AEterna Zentaris

Committed to cure by discovering and developing innovative drugs for the treatment of patients suffering from some forms of cancer, endocrinian disorders and infectious diseases, this is our mission. Therefore, our dedicated and motivated staff is committed to the pursuit of our excellence program based on performance, quality and integrity towards patients and the healthcare community, as well as to our shareholders to secure them with an optimum return in light of their trust towards our work. Products on the market Æterna Zentaris Inc., the "Company" formed following the acquisition of German-based company Zentaris by Æterna Laboratories Inc., benefits from significant added credibility in regard to the development of targeted therapies. The research and development teams have proven their abilities as experts at gearing the development of compounds to precise strategic targets. This track record has succeeded in attracting lucrative partnership and financing agreements at all stages of the development process. Since its beginning, the Company has engaged in the discovery and development of novel drugs culminating with the launch of two products for serious or life-threatening diseases. Products in development In the biopharmaceutical business, risk is best managed through the pursuit and availability of different clinical and preclinical projects. Æterna Zentaris’ pipeline follows a multi-track endeavour in three principal therapeutic fields: oncology, endocrinology and anti-infectives. Besides its proprietary drug discovery unit, the Company’s global scientific network produces a steady stream of innovative new development projects to create breakthrough medicines for patients in need. Growth strategy The Æterna Zentaris business model is to discover and develop innovative products mostly through alliances with pharmaceutical and biotech companies. In case of licensing, the Company reaps revenues from projects even at the earliest stage of development. This latter model minimizes risk through alliance commitments that provide for Æterna Zentaris’ partners to pay most development costs, while Æterna Zentaris retains significant commercial rights.
