Challenge:

A European investor required due diligence support to appraise the attractiveness of a series of potential investments. The technologies included a theranostic agent, a DNA damage response inhibitor and a virus-like drug conjugate all targeting solid tumors. As well as a biologic asset targeting iron metabolism for genetic diseases. 

Solution:

Our experts analyzed the available data packages for the four assets and conducted separate triage-level due diligences. These assessments addressed the following key questions for each opportunity:

  • Is the target robust?
  • Have others addressed the same target and if so, what can be learned?
  • How differentiated is the asset?
  • What’s the strength of the data so far?
  • Is the trial design appropriate?
  • Is the commercial opportunity “real” and substantive?
  • What’s the competitive position and implications for value? 
We presented our findings to the client and discussed which would be the most attractive investment opportunities.
