Targeting a Large and Growing Market

With the COPD market expected to grow to $23 billion by 2014, according to Research and Markets, many industry bellwethers ranging from AstraZeneca plc to Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. are targeting the industry with new drugs and devices designed to help relieve symptoms.

COPD is a disease that is characterized by the airways to the lungs narrowing, which causes shortness of breath, which gets worse over time in some cases. Often times, the disease is caused by noxious particles or gas, most often from tobacco smoking, which triggers an inflammatory response in the lung.

With an aging population of smokers facing such conditions, and an increase in smoking in some emerging markets in Asia and Latin America, the worldwide COPD problem costs the U.S. healthcare system more than $40 billion a year and is the fourth leading cause of death.

Treatments and Solutions for COPD

While COPD has no cure, there are many treatments on the market. Companies like AstraZeneca and Teva produce pharmaceutical solutions, but companies like Ingen Technologies (Pink Sheets: IGNT) provide the foundation for treatment via oxygen therapy.

Since COPD is characterized by a lack of oxygen entering the lungs, many patients receive pure oxygen through a nasal cannula in order to receive the oxygen levels required. These cannulas have traditionally been mass-produced in China, are uncomfortable and provide little added value.

Ingen Technologies has developed a revolutionary new oxygen cannula, called Oxyview that is far more comfortable and provides several value-added features. For instance, the Oxyview provides a gauge that confirms the flow of oxygen at the source in order to reassure patients concerned about an emptying oxygen tank.

Ingen’s Solutions Save Time and Money

Ingen Technologies’ SMART Oxyview cannulas are available at roughly the same price as traditional cannulas, while its oxygen readings can help dramatically reduce out-patient visits by oxygen providers like Lincare Holdings (LNCR) and Cardinal Health, Inc. (CAH).

With such a compelling value proposition, it is little surprise that Ingen has seen its sales move up last quarter. Meanwhile, efforts to reach out to military and international customers should also drive revenue moving forward. As a result, growth investors may want to take a close look at IGNT.

Sinobiopharma, Inc. (“Sinobiopharma” or, the “Company”) (OTC Bulletin Board: SNBP) is pleased to announce that the Chinese government has approved the Company’s flagship product, KuTai (Cisatracurium Besylate), for coverage under National Basic Medical Insurance, Employment Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance (2009 Edition).

KuTai (Cisatracurium Besylate), on the market since 2006, had not been covered by any medical insurance before the Chinese government granted approval for its inclusion on the list of insured drugs on November 27, 2009. Before coverage was approved, patients who chose KuTai, a lasted generation skeletal muscle relaxant used for surgery, did so at their own expense. National Basic Medical Insurance will now provide for patients to be reimbursed for any use of KuTai. Under China’s healthcare reform plan, more than 90 percent of its urban population of 600 million will be covered by National Basic Medical Insurance by the end of 2010.

Typically, the Chinese government observes the performance of new generation drugs in the market for several years to ensure their safety and efficacy profile is well established before considering them for inclusion on the list of insured pharmaceuticals. Following Sinobiopharma’s launch of this latest generation of muscle relaxant in China in 2006, KuTai has became one of the market growth leaders and is now used in more than 1,000 hospitals located in almost every province.

“We are very pleased that KuTai has finally been approved for insurance coverage,” said Dr. Lequn Lee Huang, Sinobiopharma CEO. “All of KuTai’s competitor drugs, earlier generation muscle relaxants, were covered by insurance. But even with this reimbursement disadvantage, KuTai still managed to gain significant market share because of its greater efficacy and superior safety profile. KuTai’s inclusion on the list of insured drugs eliminates this reimbursement disadvantage. We expect the provision of insurance coverage will drive a significant increase in KuTai’s sales volume and further gains in market share.”

Sinobiopharma, Inc. (SNBP) is pleased to announce that its production facility for solid dosage Perindopril has passed the required Chinese State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) inspection and is now approved for production and marketing.

Sinobiopharma had received SFDA approval for its formulation of Perindopril, the first version of the drug to be developed in China, in April 2009.  SFDA regulations require that drug makers conduct large-scale production of at least three batches of a newly approved drug in a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certified production facility. SFDA officials inspect the production process, the application of GMP standards, and conducted a full test of randomly picked samples of the drug. Sinobiopharma successfully met all the requirements and now has received approval to distribute the drug throughout China.

The Company believes its formulation of Perindopril is the latest generation worldwide of the product, which is part of a class of medications known as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. These medications are used alone or in combination with other medications to treat high blood pressure.  Perindopril allows blood to flow more smoothly by preventing the production of certain natural chemicals that constrict blood vessels.  Every year, US$3.7 billion is spent on the treatment of hypertension in China.  Sinibiopharma’s Perindopril will be marketed under the trade name YiTai in China.

“We believe that YiTai is a first-to-market drug in China and therefore enjoys the benefit of having a government sanctioned price premium as well as certain exclusive marketing rights to hospitals,” said Dr. Lequn Lee Huang, CEO of the Company. “The market for anti-hypertensives in China is huge, but highly fragmented. Sinobiopharma’s YiTai is well positioned to capture substantial market share quickly.”
