We aim to develop novel technologies to provide
safer and more effective options to patients in areas with substantial
unmet medical needs, particularly in the areas of biosurgical and
passive immunotherapy products. We are utilizing our proprietary
protein purification technology, innovative development capabilities,
and manufacturing know-how to develop these product lines.
Our biosurgical product line includes products and product candidates
that are used for the control of bleeding, or hemostasis, and other
surgical applications. We compete in the active biosurgical hemostats
market.
Our passive immunotherapy product line includes antibody-rich products
and product candidates for the treatment of immune deficiencies
and infectious diseases and for potential biodefense applications.
We supply vaccinia immunoglobulin, or VIG, to several governments
as a means to treat smallpox vaccine-related complications in the
event of a smallpox terrorist attack . We currently market in Israel
intravenous immunoglobulin, or IVIG, an antibody-based product used
to treat primary immune deficiencies, as well as enriched hepatitis
B immune globulin (HBIG), and we are broadening our passive immunotherapy
platform by improving our current products and developing new product
candidates.
