RE: Angle Plc. New RNS !!!! ---SECOND contract--- with ***Astrazeneca***3 May 2024 09:53
For every assay that Angle develop:-
- the assay development fees will be low ($250k - $750k depending on complexity)
- following the assay development there should be multiple phase 1/2 trial contracts, with multiple pharma, with higher value ($1m-$3m depending on number of patients / tests per patient)
- a number of the P1/2 trials will be followed with P3 trials, the contracts for which will be larger still ($3m-$6m)
- and finally this may lead to the assay / parsortix being used as a companion diagnostic (Cdx) which will deliver significant annual revenue (tens of millions)
So the key message is THESE ASSAY CONTRACTS are critical as they open the gates to the high volume downstream cashflow.
As my brother (who has worked in biotech sales or over 24 years) said when the last contract was announced, "where one large pharma goes the others will quickly follow as nobody wants to be left at a disadvantage".
