Sucampo Shareholders Upset Over Merger Bid - (via NewsPoints Desk)
December 28, 2017
Tags: NewsPoints Sucampo Mallinkrodt United States Corporate Affairs Mergers & Acquisitions

A group of Sucampo Pharmaceuticals Inc. shareholders are attempting
to block the $1.2 billion purchase of the company by Mallinkrodt plc.

The shareholders allege that the purchase price $18 per share is insufficient in light of the company's growth
prospects and that deal-protection clauses in the merger agreement preclude other companies from submitting successful competing offers. In addition, shareholders allege that senior management obtained personal benefits for their own self interests
in agreeing to sell the company that are not being shared with common stockholders.

Sucampo did not immediately respond to requests for a comment.
To contact the law firm on behalf of shareholders of
Sucampo for more information as to how you can participate
with shareholders to get a higher price at no cost or expense

"In Europe; Austria, Germany, and Italy issued national marketing authorizations for AMITIZA for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation, joining, Ireland, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, and Belgium, and we expect Spain to issue national marketing authorization by the end of this year. For Europe, Takeda continues to work on pricing and reimbursement assessments to inform their launch plans and sequencing, and continues to sell AMITIZA in Switzerland and the United Kingdom."

Analyst 'forecast' positive:

Change Over Previous Year
'15 '16 '17
54.3% 32.9% 81.7%

All those projections was the reason I opened my position. It's the 15% shorts that bother me but I'm still in for the long term.

Thanks, M

Go $SCMP

Growth EPS Projections:
'15 '16 '17
48.3% 32.9% 67.1%

With a P/E of about 38 and great stats (RoE, RoA, Profit, etc...) besides that. What a Peter Lynch type buy (great company with a great PEG). And they meet the projections well enough! An expensive company but in this context, I'm keeping it :)

A dip then (a bad one; was due to a downgrade by one analyst I would gather), a great Hold for a long time in my view. Of course, no crystal ball here.

Wow! Went off yesterday and when I came home we had tanked.
Big time!

What happened?

EPS up and we loose almost 20%. Any chance of a recovery soon?

*** SCMP is interesting because it is the only pham stock with eps and div that is still on A BUY

That is good when market turns up. IMHO.

Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy

Investors certainly have to be happy with Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (SCMP) and its short term performance. After all, the stock has jumped by 38.6% in the past 4 weeks, and it is also above its 20 Day Simple Moving Average as well. This is certainly a good trend, but investors are probably asking themselves, can this positive trend continue for SCMP?

While we can never know for sure, it is pretty encouraging that estimates for SCMP have moved higher in the past few weeks, meaning that analyst sentiment is moving in the right way. Plus, the stock actually has a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), so the recent move higher for this spotlighted company may definitely continue over the next few weeks.

Q313 US net sales of constipation drug Amitiza (by US partner Takeda) reached $72.5m (+1.4%) and we estimate FY13 sales at $280m. Amitiza is the only oral drug available for opioid-induced constipation, a significant opportunity. Amitiza holds further potential from its commercial roll-out in Japan (marketed by Abbott Japan) and in Europe (directly in the UK and Switzerland; with further partnerships possible). Sucampo is planning a Phase III programme for Amitiza in paediatric patients and has started a pivotal study with a liquid formulation. Rescula (unoprostone) is available for glaucoma in the US (since Feb 2013), and is being studied in Japan in a Phase III trial for retinitis pigmentosa, a significant unmet need.

Co announced the results of its double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a proof of concept study evaluating safety and efficacy of an intravenously (IV) administered compound of the company's proprietary ion channel activator program in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). A responder analysis of data from the trial revealed that patients receiving the ion channel activator experienced a statistically significant improvement in pain, as determined by improvements in the visual analog scale (VAS) score, versus placebo (94.4% versus 62.5%; p=0.035).
Improvements were also observed in the primary and other efficacy measures, including pain-associated quality of life measures for patients treated with the ion channel activator, although the extent of improvement was not statistically significant.
The ion channel activator was well-tolerated and was not associated with serious adverse events. Additionally, no worsening of any of the efficacy measures in the active group was recorded.

Sucampo and Takeda Initiate Global Pivotal Phase 3 Program of Lubiprostone in Pediatric Functional Constipation

Intraday Stock Chart

Today : Tuesday 17 December 2013
Click Here for more Sucampo Pharmaceuticals - Class A (MM) Charts.
Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:SCMP) ("Sucampo") and its development and commercialization partner Takeda Pharmaceuticals ("Takeda") today announced the initiation of a global pivotal Phase 3 clinical program of lubiprostone in pediatric functional constipation. Functional constipation is a very common gastrointestinal complaint in children and is on the rise. An analysis of longitudinal data in the United States showed a nearly 4-fold increase in rates of constipation over the last decade.1



Takeda Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc. logo






Lubiprostone is the world's first chloride channel activator that increases intestinal fluid secretion, softens stools and increases motility in the intestine, thereby facilitating the passage of stool and alleviating symptoms associated with chronic idiopathic constipation. This Phase 3 program was preceded by an open-label trial in 124 patients aged 3 to 17 years, which suggested that lubiprostone warrants further investigation as a potential treatment for children and adolescents with functional constipation.

Estimates of the prevalence rate of functional constipation in the pediatric population worldwide have varied from 4 to 37%.2 Only 50 to 70% of children with functional constipation demonstrate long-term improvement with the current treatments.3

"I am very pleased to be participating in this pivotal program which will study lubiprostone for pediatric functional constipation," said Paul Hyman, MD, Investigator and Professor of Pediatrics, Division Head, Gastroenterology, Children's Hospital at New Orleans, Louisiana State University Health Science Center. "There is an unmet need for alternatives to traditional laxative therapy in the pediatric population, and there are currently no prescription products indicated for long-term use in this population. We look forward to conducting this study to determine whether lubiprostone may be a valuable treatment alternative for these pediatric patients."

This Phase 3 program consists of two well-controlled pivotal studies with similar design – one testing lubiprostone capsules in patients 6 to 17 years of age and another testing lubiprostone liquid formulation in patients aged 6 months to under 6 years. Sucampo also plans to evaluate the long-term safety of lubiprostone in these populations through two open-label extension studies.

The first Phase 3 trial in the program, which has just been initiated, is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of lubiprostone in pediatric subjects between the ages of 6 to 17. The trial is expected to enroll more than 500 patients with pediatric functional constipation at up to 100 sites across the United States, Canada, and Europe. Subjects will be treated for 12 weeks with weight-based dosages of 12 mcg or 24 mcg twice daily (BID). The primary endpoint for this trial is overall spontaneous bowel movement (SBM) response. An SBM is a bowel movement that occurs without the use of another constipation treatment such as a laxative, enema, or suppository, during the 24 hours prior to occurrence.

Sucampo plans to file a supplemental new drug application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration following program completion, which is anticipated by early 2016.

About Pediatric Functional Constipation

The symptoms of pediatric functional constipation include infrequent bowel movements (BMs), hard stools, large diameter stools and painful passage of stools. Rome III diagnostic criteria for childhood functional constipation dictate that such symptoms occur at least once per week for at least 2 months prior to diagnosis. Children may also experience fecal retention due to withholding.1 There is a tendency to avoid defecation and withhold BMs as a result of pain experienced from the passage of large stools. This withholding of BMs can result in episodes of fecal incontinence. Ninety percent of pediatric constipation is functional constipation and it occurs in all age groups.4

About lubiprostone

Amitiza® (lubiprostone) capsules are indicated for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) in adults and opioid induced constipation (OIC) in adults with chronic, non-cancer pain (24 mcg twice daily). The effectiveness in patients with OIC taking diphenylheptane opioids (e.g., methadone) has not been established. Amitiza is also indicated for irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) in women > 18 years old (8 mcg twice daily).

Important Safety Information

Amitiza is contraindicated in patients with known or suspected mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction. Patients with symptoms suggestive of mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction should be thoroughly evaluated by the treating healthcare provider (HCP) to confirm the absence of such an obstruction prior to initiating Amitiza treatment.

Patients taking Amitiza may experience nausea. If this occurs, concomitant administration of food with Amitiza may reduce symptoms of nausea. Patients who experience severe nausea should inform their HCP.

Amitiza should not be prescribed to patients that have severe diarrhea. Patients should be aware of the possible occurrence of diarrhea during treatment. Patients should be instructed to discontinue Amitiza and inform their HCP if severe diarrhea occurs.

Patients taking Amitiza may experience dyspnea within an hour of first dose. This symptom generally resolves within three hours, but may recur with repeat dosing. Patients who experience dyspnea should inform their HCP. Some patients have discontinued therapy because of dyspnea.

In clinical trials of Amitiza (24 mcg twice daily vs placebo; N=1113 vs N=316, respectively) in patients with CIC, the most common adverse reactions (incidence > 4%) were nausea (29% vs 3%), diarrhea (12% vs 1%), headache (11% vs 5%), abdominal pain (8% vs 3%), abdominal distension (6% vs 2%), and flatulence (6% vs 2%).

In clinical trials of Amitiza (24 mcg twice daily vs placebo; N=860 vs N=632, respectively) in patients with OIC, the most common adverse reactions (incidence > 4%) were nausea (11% vs 5%) and diarrhea (8% vs 2%).

In clinical trials of Amitiza (8 mcg twice daily vs placebo; N=1011 vs N=435, respectively) in patients with IBS-C the most common adverse reactions (incidence > 4%) were nausea (8% vs 4%), diarrhea (7% vs 4%), and abdominal pain (5% vs 5%).

Concomitant use of diphenylheptane opioids (e.g., methadone) may interfere with the efficacy of Amitiza.

The safety of Amitiza in pregnancy has not been evaluated in humans. Based on animal data, Amitiza may cause fetal harm. Amitiza should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Caution should be exercised when Amitiza is administered to a nursing woman. Advise nursing women to monitor infants for diarrhea.

Reduce the dosage in CIC and OIC patients with moderate and severe hepatic impairment. Reduce the dosage in IBS-C patients with severe hepatic impairment.

Two posters will be presented at the American College of Gastroenterology Annual Scientific Meeting in San Diego, California on Oct 13 and 15, 2013, and the third poster will be presented at the American College of Clinical Pharmacy Annual Meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico on Oct 16, 2013.

6:49AM Sucampo Pharma announces clinical data showing that lubiprostone is efficacious and well tolerated in children and adolescents with functional constipation (SCMP) 6.38 : Co announced clinical data showing that lubiprostone is efficacious and well tolerated in children and adolescents with functional constipation. The results were published in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology & Nutrition. The primary endpoint for the open-label, multicenter, safety and efficacy study was spontaneous bowel movement (SBM) frequency during week 1 versus baseline. The mean SBM frequency significantly increased from 1.5 SBMs/week at baseline to 3.1 SBMs/week at week 1. In addition, lubiprostone was associated with statistically significant improvements in SBM frequency from baseline for up to three additional weeks. Patients received four weeks of lubiprostone at doses (12 mcg once daily [QD], 12 mcg twice daily [BID], or 24 mcg [BID]) based on age and weight. Of the 127 patients, 124 were treated and analyzed (12 mcg QD, n = 27; 12 mcg BID, n = 65; 24 mcg BID, n = 32), and 109 completed the study. The mean age of treated patients was 10.2 years, and 52% were male.

Common adverse events ncluded nausea (18.5%), vomiting (12.1%), diarrhea (8.1%), abdominal pain (7.3%), and headache (5.6%). Two patients experienced serious AEs (unrelated abdominal pain; unrelated sickle cell crisis).

6:46AM Sucampo Pharma to present data on AMITIZA (lubiprostone) in opioid-induced constipation at 24th Annual AAPM Meeting; presentation demonstrates that AMITIZA does not affect opioid-induced analgesia, was well-tolerated, and resulted in overall improvement in symptoms in OIC patients (SCMP) 6.20 : Co announced the poster presentation of data evaluating the long-term safety of AMITIZA (lubiprostone) as a treatment for adults with chronic, non-cancer pain suffering from opioid-induced constipation (OIC). This poster presentation demonstrates that AMITIZA does not affect opioid-induced analgesia, was well-tolerated, and resulted in overall improvement in symptoms in OIC patients. Sucampo will present this data at the 24th Annual Clinical Meeting for the American Academy of Pain Management (AAPM) in Orlando, Florida on Friday, September 27, 2013.

Bailed here this afternoon for a 5% loss.

No way I could keep it as it was going down on positive news.

6:09AM Sucampo Pharma announced earlier positive top-line results in Phase 1a trials of cobiprostone and SPI-3608 (SCMP) 6.16 : Co announced the positive top-line results of two recently completed clinical trials, a Phase 1a trial of cobiprostone and a Phase 1a trial of SPI-3608. The studies tested the tolerability and pharmacokinetic profiles versus placebo of the two compounds, both of which were demonstrated to be generally well-tolerated in the tested populations. In total, six doses of cobiprostone were tested. No serious or severe adverse events (AEs) were reported and the most frequently observed AE was mild diarrhea. Co also announced the positive top-line results of SPI-3608 in a Phase 1a single-oral-dose study that demonstrated the drug to be generally well tolerated in healthy volunteers. SPI-3608 is being investigated for the treatment of mild to moderate lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and may be investigated for additional indications in the future. The next phase of development for SPI-3608 is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2014.

"Pre-clinical data indicate that cobiprostone induces mucosal barrier repair and prevents mucosal barrier damage, and the fact that it was well-tolerated in this study is extremely encouraging. Even though we have not yet evaluated efficacy in patients, we are looking forward to advancing cobiprostone into Phase 1b later this year... Pre-clinical data on SPI-3608 indicate that the compound is capable of the treatment of spinal stenosis by increasing spinal cord blood flow."

Sucampo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:SCMP) ("Sucampo"), a global biopharmaceutical company, today announced that it will host a webcast and teleconference with senior management to discuss its financial results and operating highlights for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2013, on Thursday, August 8, 2013, at 5:00 pm Eastern.

The press release announcing the financial results and operating highlights is expected to be released after the close of the capital markets that day.

Doubled up on my position here over the past two trading sessions.

Looking for positive report on August 8.

Amitiza seems to be gaining market share and will become the "go to" drug for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation.

JMHO

Looks like a very good buying opportunity today.

Q2 earnings should be positive catalyst here over the next week.
