Teva’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard Francis,
and additional members of Teva’s executive management team will
provide a detailed overview of the Company’s new strategy during a
live webcast today, May 18, 2023 at 12:00 p.m. ET. The live webcast
of the event and presentation materials will be available on Teva's
website here.
“Our new strategy is built on four key pillars to deliver short-
and long-term growth from our commercial portfolio and biosimilars,
innovative pipeline, generics powerhouse and focused capital
allocation,” said Richard Francis, President and CEO, Teva. “With
our Pivot to Growth strategy, I am confident we will gain momentum
as a stronger, bolder and simpler organization.”
Deliver on Growth
Engines
Teva expects to return to growth in the short term by
accelerating its strong innovative portfolio and delivering on its
promising biosimilars pipeline.
Teva expects to achieve annual revenues of more than $2.5
billion by 2027 for AUSTEDO, across its indications by addressing
the unmet needs of a significantly under-diagnosed patient
population and by expanding its coverage in key geographies. With
UZEDY, the Company has an opportunity to reach a population of more
than 600,000 patients living with schizophrenia with a
best-in-class, differentiated therapy profile. Teva is additionally
well-positioned to capitalize on its late-stage pipeline of
biosimilars with 7 products in late-stage development and/or under
regulatory review.
Step up Innovation
Teva aims to expand its innovative pipeline and focus on its
core therapeutic areas of neuroscience, immunology and
immuno-oncology, with assets aiming to be first-in-class and
best-in-class.
The Company is already developing promising innovative assets,
which will improve the standard of care for many patients worldwide
and illustrate Teva’s unique capabilities in product formulation,
complex devices and antibody engineering:
- Olanzapine LAI (44749) in phase 3 for schizophrenia has the
potential to be a first long-acting olanzapine with favorable
safety profile
- ICS/SABA (56248) in phase 3 for asthma is a de-risked
fixed-dose addressing market needs and newest Asthma medical
guidelines
- Anti-TL1A (48574) in phase 2 has the potential to be
best-in-class for the underserved ulcerative colitis / Crohn’s
disease market, as demonstrated by the data showcased by the
Company.
Teva also sees promising application of its Attenukine
technology – a new mechanism of action for high efficacy and low
toxicity, for a broad array of immuno-oncology indications. The
technology’s potential was demonstrated by the results of
CD38-targeted Attenukine for multiple myeloma (out-licensed); and
is being developed with a novel Anti-PD1-IL2 (56278) in oncology
(in-house).
Additional assets within Teva’s promising innovative pipeline
include:
- Anti-IL15 (53408) in Phase 1 for Celiac Disease
- Anti-PAR2 (56192) in Phase 1 in neuroscience
- Anle138b1 (56286) in Phase 1 for multiple system atrophy
(MSA)
Teva also expects to more actively engage in business
development opportunities to ensure pipeline-led, long-term
growth.
Sustain Generics
Powerhouse
Teva has a strong core generics business. The Company plans to
continue to lead in generics and make it a sustainable powerhouse.
Generics are the cornerstone of Teva’s success and heritage. Moving
forward, the Company is committed to leveraging its unparalleled
technological, development and clinical expertise to focus on a
prioritized portfolio and pipeline of high-value generics
opportunities. This would include mainly complex generics products,
such as drug device combinations and long-acting injectables
(LAIs).
Focus the Business
Teva has made decisive choices to focus its business and
allocate resources on areas that show the greatest potential for
growth and patient impact. Moving forward, the Company plans to
increase its focus, optimize its businesses and its portfolio, and
reallocate resources to fund growth. Teva is staying committed to
continue serving its debt, and has reiterated its financial targets
for 2027.
