The right opportunity...

Amplia are among the first in the world to explore how FAK could expand the growing multi-billion-dollar checkpoint inhibitor market. The global immune checkpoint inhibitors market was valued at $10,566 million in 2017, and is projected to reach $56,530 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 20.1% from 2018 to 2025. (Source: Allied Market Research). Historical growth in this market has also been significant (see image).

...being tackled by the right assets...

Amplia's AMP886 and AMP945 are targeting several conditions within both Cancer and Fibrosis, which gives them an opportunity to take 'multiple shots at goal'. Furthermore, early studies have demonstrated that Amplia's molecules are highly differentiated and competitive. AMP945 in particular is believed to be highly focused in what it targets, which could suggest improved safety characteristics in comparison to other FAK assets currently being developed.

...being managed by the right people...

The Amplia board have a significant track record in the development and commercialisation of drugs. A comprehensive list of achievements can be found here, and includes but is not limited to multi-billion-dollar transactions to big-pharma in the U.S. In addition, Amplia's Scientific Advisory Board consists of world leaders in FAK biology, including recent appointment Professor Paul Timpson.
