Dow Jones Description

SciClone Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SCLN) is a for-profit, global pharmaceutical company with a substantial international business and a product portfolio of novel therapies for cancer and infectious diseases. Our objective, which we believe we will achieve, is sustained profitability for the full year 2009 through a combination of international sales growth, a cost-containing clinical development strategy, and focused expense management. ZADAXIN ® , our brand of thymalfasin and our primary product, is sold in over 30 countries for the treatment of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the hepatitis C virus (HCV), certain cancers and/or as a vaccine adjuvant. Our cash position and the profit margin on our product sales and marketing operations provide the financial resources for continued growth in our international business and for development of our pipeline of phase 2 drug candidates, including: RP101 for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and SCV-07 for the treatment of HCV and for oral mucositis. Our DC Bead product is awaiting approval in the Peoples Republic of China (China) for the treatment of liver cancer. We plan to expand our commercial operations, currently primarily located in China. A key part of our strategy is to leverage our decade of experience in China and to grow our international business by adding commercial stage or near term commercial stage products to our portfolio. ...
