theflyonthewall.com: Maxygen not to awarded contract for development of Maxy-G34 by BARDA
Maxygen announced that it has been advised by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, or BARDA, that Maxygen's proposal for the development of its Maxy-G34 product candidate as a potential medical countermeasure for Acute Radiation Syndrome, or ARS, will not be considered for a contract award. Maxygen submitted a white paper entitled Development of Maxy-G34 as a Medical Countermeasure for Acute Radiation Syndrome in December 2010 in response to a Broad Agency Announcement. Following review of the white paper, in February BARDA invited Maxygen to prepare a full proposal which the company then submitted in May. BARDA found Maxygen's proposal technically sound and highlighted the novel attributes of Maxy-G34, the comprehensive nature of the development plan, the promising efficacy data in animal models and the safety data in previous studies of Maxy-G34 in breast cancer patients. However, BARDA also noted several weaknesses in the proposal, including dependence on overseas manufacturing, uncertainty regarding intellectual property issues with respect to Maxy-G34 and the company's reliance on consultants and subcontractors. :theflyonthewall.com
