IPSEN LTD

Ipsen Ltd is the UK subsidiary of Ipsen, a European pharmaceutical group with over 20 products on the market and a total worldwide staff of nearly 4000.

Ipsen's development strategy is based on a combination of products in targeted therapeutic areas - oncology, endocrinology and neuromuscular disorders - which are growth drivers, and primary care products which contribute significantly to its research financing. This strategy is also supported by an active policy of partnerships.

Ipsen Ltd's Endocrinology and Oncology Business Unit is responsible for a portfolio of products with sophisticated sustained release delivery systems for the management of various hormone-related diseases.

Ipsen's R&D programme is based on four technological platforms: peptide engineering, protein engineering, medicinal chemistry and advanced drug delivery. The location of its four R&D centres (Paris, Boston, Barcelona and London) gives the group a competitive edge in gaining access to leading university research teams and highly qualified personnel. Nearly 700 people in R&D are dedicated to the discovery and development of innovative drugs for patient care.
