`
`When G|axoSmithKline (SGSK) signed on to partner with XenoPort
`($XNPT) on its experimental therapy for restless leg syndrome, the
`pharma giant offered up $75 million upfront and more than a half billion
`dollars in milestones. But regulators held up the approval process for three years,
`unti they were satisfied that the tumors seen it animal studies wouldn't pose a risk
`to humans. And last spring, when the FDA approval came througi, the biotech
`company was happy to leave the marketing etfort to GSK, which said it was
`gearing up 500 reps to sell the treatment
`
`TOOLS
`
`And then it all went to hell.

`
`XenoPort's partnership with G|axoSmithKline on Horizant was in trouble almost
`from the start of the commercialization effort. A paltry $1.3 million in initial sales for
`the first quarter on the market triggered accusations of a breach of contract. And
`then GSK quickly pinched back with a counterclaim.
`
`Alter that, the two companies expended more effort in the legal wrangle than on
`marketing efforts. And just days ago they agreed to go their separate ways, with
`GSK signing otf on a deal to buy XenoPort shares in exchange for the right to
`wash its hands of the relationship and the therapy. And in place of making big
`revenue off of sales, GSK took a $165 million writeoff.
