EVOTEC OAI Signs Two Chemistry Services Contracts With Lilly
Discovery Services Agreement Within this Discovery Services Agreement, EVOTEC OAI will provide a team of dedicated Full Time Equivalent (FTE) chemists to work exclusively on the design and synthesis of compounds for lead generation, validation as well as lead optimisation for key drug candidates to be included in Lilly’s discovery pipeline.
Development Services Agreement The Development Services Agreement has a second team of FTE chemists dedicated exclusively to Lilly process research and development projects. The Agreement also calls for EVOTEC OAI to subsequently scale up in its cGMP facilities several of Lilly’s active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) for use in clinical trials.
In total, 18 FTEs are contracted to Lilly in these two agreements.
Edwin Moses, EVOTEC OAI’s President and Head of Business Development: "We are delighted to have secured these two contract wins with Lilly, one of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies. We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with both the European and US arms of their R&D business to help them add value to their drug discovery and development programs through the application of our leading-edge chemistry solutions."
