Founded in 1954 and listed on the KOSPI in 1976, Handok is a comprehensive pharmaceutical and healthcare company. It sells the diabetes drugs Amaryl and Tenelia, the hypertension drugs Aprovasc and Aprovel, the kidney-disease drug Renvela, the digestive aid Festal, and the hangover remedy Readycue, while operating the home diagnostic device brand BaroJan and the health-food brands Nature Set and Theracurmin, alongside a contract manufacturing and real-estate leasing business. In May 2021 it out-licensed the targeted anticancer drug HL5101 (CHC2014) to AUM Biosciences and CMG Pharmaceutical for a total deal value of USD 86.25 million (plus 3.5-5.5% royalties), in-licensed the stem-cell therapy SCM-AD from SCM Lifescience in May 2019 alongside a KRW 4 billion equity investment, and signed multiple additional in-licensing agreements with Rezolute, ABL Bio, Welt, and Spark Biopharma.
