About Midatech Pharma PLC

 

Midatech is a nanomedicine company focused on the development and commercialisation of multiple, high-value, targeted therapies for major diseases with unmet medical need. These diseases include diabetes, rare cancers including brain (glioblastoma), ovarian, liver and pancreatic cancer and neurological/ophthalmologic conditions.

 

Midatech's strategy is to develop its products in-house in rare cancers and with partners in other indications, and to accelerate growth of its business through strategic acquisition of complementary products and technologies.

 

All of Midatech's product candidates derive from its two multi-applicable platform technologies that can be used alone or in combination to enable the targeted delivery ('right place') and controlled release ('right time') of existing drugs. These technologies are provided through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Midatech and Q Chip (acquired in 2014).

 

Midatech's core platform is a drug conjugate delivery system based on a patented form of gold nanoparticles (GNP) combined with existing drugs for the safe and targeted release of therapeutic payloads at specific organs, cells or sites of disease.

 

The Group's second platform is a sustained release technology acquired with Q Chip that involves the consistent and precise encapsulation of active drug compounds within polymer microspheres enabling their release into the body in a highly controlled manner over a prolonged period of time.

 

Midatech announced the proposed acquisition of DARA BioSciences Inc., (NASDAQ: DARA), an oncology supportive care pharmaceutical company, in June 2015. The acquisition will add an oncology-focused commercial platform and products in the US.

 

The Group is headquartered near Oxford, UK, with a nanoparticle manufacturing operation in Bilbao, Spain and an R&D facility in Cardiff, UK.
