Les Laboratoires AEterna Inc.
The second largest medical biotechnological company in Quebec
and one of the first ten largest in Canada, Les Laboratoires
terna Inc. conducts research in molecular biology in order to
develop and market innovative products on a worldwide scale by
establishing strategic alliances with companies in the
pharmaceutical, nutritional and cosmetic fields, at selected
times in their development.
The activities of Laboratoires terna are divided in three
divisions. The Biopharmaceutical Division performs R&D
activities on angiogenesis inhibitors that can prevent the
development of new blood vessels and for which an application
can be found in some fifteen diseases such as solid tumour
cancers, arthritis as well as certain ocular and dermatological
diseases, such as psoriasis. terna has filed an Investigational
New Drug application to the Health Protection Branch of Health
Canada in order to begin Phase I/II clinical studies on an
angiogenesis inhibiting product for three solid tumour cancers -
breast, lung and prostate.
The Cosmetics Division develops, produces and markets natural
products that help reduce the appearance of aging signs. This
division of Les Laboratoires terna distributes its own
trademarks in the specialized dermatological and aesthetics
markets. The Nutritional Supplements Division develops, produces
and markets natural products extracted from animal or marine
biomass that can help maintain physiological homeostasis. These
products are manufactured with the most recent techniques in
cellular fractionation and molecular isolation and they are
mainly available through health professionals.
The Cosmetics and Nutritional Supplements Divisions make more
than 80% of their sales on a worldwide scale, thus contributing
to terna's profitability since its foundation in 1991. The
products manufactured by terna are marketed through a network
of international specialized distributors located in America (6),
Europe (3), South Africa (1), and Asia (3). The Company is
continuing its international development by approaching
distribution companies located in South America, Europe, Asia
and Oceania.
