Ark Therapeutics Group plc
Ark Therapeutics Group plc is a specialist healthcare group (the
"Group") addressing high value areas of unmet medical need within
vascular disease and cancer. These are large and growing markets,
where opportunities exist for effective new products to generate
significant revenues.
Ark has an early stage pipeline emanating from collaborations
with University College, London and the AI Virtanen Institute in
Kuopio, Finland, the development of which it intends to progress in
collaboration with pharmaceutical and biotech partners.
In addition Ark has the ability to off-set a proportion of its
R&D costs and to generate sustainable revenues through the
exploitation of its proprietary technology platform, process
development, scale-up and manufacturing capabilities on behalf of
third parties.
Ark has its origins in businesses established in the mid-1990s
by Professor John Martin of University College London and Professor
Seppo Yla-Herttuala of the AI Virtanen Institute at the University
of Kuopio, Finland, both of whom remain consultants on the
Company's research and development programmes.
Ark's shares were first listed on the London Stock Exchange in
March 2004 (AKT.L).
