"In the past year we have achieved several major strategic milestones, and have seen ChemGenex emerge as an integrated biopharmaceutical company using genomics from discovery through to clinical trials," said ChemGenex CEO and managing director Dr Greg Collier in a statement. "We are looking forward to a year of significant advances in our clinical programs which should deliver strong growth in shareholder value."
