Overview

British Biotech's main development drugs were marimastat (a matrix metalloprotease inhibitor for cancer treatment) and lexipafant (Zacutex, for pancreatitis). Batimastat (BB94) progressed to Phase 3 clinical trials. The company was later found to have misled the public about marimastat's progress, and development of Zacutex was abandoned due to poor clinical trial results.
