Orion Corporation Orion Pharma Address: Tengströminkatu 8, 20380 Turku, Finland Phone: +358 10 4261, Fax: +358 10 426 3815 Contact Person: Antti Haapalinna, Director Nonclinical R&D E-mail: [email protected] Business Area: Drug Discovery and Development Product / Project Portfolio / Service Concept: Orion Pharma is the pharmaceuticals business division of the Orion Group. Its businesses consist of proprietary and generic medicines for humans and animal health, as well as active pharmaceutical ingredients. Orion’s pharmaceutical research operations mainly engage in the first phases of the research process, the preclinical research aiming at cre-ating new drug molecules for the subsequent clinical trials in patients. The two therapeutic areas are CNS (Central Nervous System) and OCC (Oncology & Critical Care). Orion has dedicated research teams and tools to identify and characterise compounds that modulate steroid-dependent pathways. The research has yielded several novel and innovative lead candidates that deserve further characterisation to relieve their full poten-tial. One major pathway under intensive research is physiologically regulated by andro-gens. Potential indication areas where these non-steroidal ligands are being tested in-clude, e.g., multiple bone diseases and sarcopenia. Orion’s early phase research has also yielded a number of highly potent antagonists for certain steroid-dependent pathways. Basic research over the years has confirmed that pathways inhibited by these compounds play a critical role in certain hormone-dependent and -refractory cancers (e.g. prostate cancer). Novel and innovative cancer mechanisms and models are being investigated while also performing chemistry and in vitro optimisation of the most promising compound families both in Orion and within collaboration network. In future, the platforms of nuclear recep-tors enzyme inhibition, G-protein coupled receptors and, ion channels, approaches will be leveraged to discover additional medically relevant druggable targets in the treatment of humans and animals. Company Profile: Orion is a pharmaceuticals and diagnostics company dedicated to treating and preventing disease by discovering and developing innovative medicinal treatments and diagnostic products for global markets. Orion is engaged in human and veterinary drugs, active pharmaceutical ingredients and diagnostic tests. Orion’s corporate headquarters and most of the supply chain and R&D operations are located in Finland. The company’s own marketing organisation is almost European-wide. Partnerships and networking are one of the key elements in Orion’s business strategy. Orion is listed on the NASDAQ OMX Hel-sinki stock exchange. Corporate homepage www.orion.fi/en
