Company Description

Nektar Therapeutics has pegged its fortunes to making drugs more effective. The clinical-stage drug development firm uses its PEGylation technology, (based upon polyethylene glycol) to improve the delivery and efficacy of existing drugs. Nektar's pipeline is focused on anti-infectives and anti-virals, immunology, oncology, and pain treatments. Its lead candidate NKTR-118 (which it is developing in collaboration with AstraZeneca) is being tested as a treatment for opioid-induced constipation. It also maintains a handful of preclinical candidates. Nektar receives royalties on about a dozen marketed products which include its technology, and developed in collaboration with partners including Amgen and Pfizer.
