Annual Report
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations analyzes the major elements of our balance sheets, statements of income and cash flows. This section should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and our financial statements and accompanying notes to these financial statements. All amounts are in U.S. dollars and rounded.
Description of Business
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapeutic products for the treatment of ophthalmic disorders. We have in-licensed certain patents and patent applications protecting the use in the ophthalmic field of our current pipeline drug under development, a synthetic A3 adenosine receptor, or A3AR, agonist, CF101 (known generically as IB-MECA). CF101 is currently being developed by us to treat two ophthalmic indications:
glaucoma and uveitis. We are currently conducting a Phase II trial with respect to the development of CF101 for the treatment of glaucoma or related syndromes of ocular hypertension.
CF101 is a highly-selective, orally bioavailable small molecule synthetic drug, which targets the A3AR. We believe that CF101 has a favorable safety profile and a potent anti-inflammatory activity, mediated via its capability to inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-?, MMPs, IL-1, and IL-6. This is mediated by activation of the A3AR, which is highly expressed in inflammatory tissues in contrast to normal tissues where expression levels of the receptor are very low. We believe that the anti-inflammatory and neuro-protective effects of CF101 make it a candidate for use in the treatment of ophthalmic indications.
We are focused on the development of CF101 for the treatment of glaucoma, with a Phase II study ongoing in Israel and Europe. We recently amended the ongoing Phase II study protocol and continue to the second cohort, where patients will be treated with 2 mg CF101 or placebo. This decision is based on positive data from the psoriasis Phase II/III study currently conducted with CF101 by our majority stockholder and parent, Can-Fite. As a result, there will not be an interim analysis and the full study data is expected to be announced in mid-2015. If successful, the treatment of glaucoma with an oral drug has the potential to be a breakthrough treatment in resolving patient compliance issues with current topical treatments. A third-party validation for the utilization of A3 adenosine receptor agonists for lowering intraocular pressure and treating glaucoma has been recently published by Professor M. Francesca Cordeiro, a Professor of Glaucoma & Retinal Neuro-degeneration at the University College of London and Imperial College in London.
According to GlobalData, the global market for glaucoma drugs is estimated to exceed $3 billion by 2018 and the global uveitis therapeutics market is expected to grow from $0.3 billion in 2010 to $1.6 billion by 2017. None of our product candidates have been approved for sale or marketing and, to date, there have been no commercial sales of any of our product candidates.
