Cambridge Antibody Technology Limited

CAT is a biopharmaceutical company aiming to bring improvements to seriously ill patients' lives and in this way create outstanding returns for shareholders. The company seeks to develop high value products in which it has a significant economic interest, both independently and in collaboration with partners, by using its capabilities and technologies in the discovery and development of antibody medicines in selected therapeutic areas. CAT also licenses its technologies to enable others to develop drugs in which CAT has a financial interest. CAT has recently (post year end) acquired two oncology candidates from Genencor and a development organisation in the US to take these programmes forward. The acquisition of these product candidates accelerates the development of CAT's proprietary pipeline and signals the intention to focus future proprietary research and development activities in oncology - the area where CAT believes the opportunities are greatest for a company of CAT's technologies and capabilities.
