AMARIN's research and development capabilities allow the company to carry out all steps of a new product development process. An experienced team coordinates all of the company's research, project planning and product development programs. The company performs an exhaustive background analysis of the selected agent for a transdermal formulation before beginning the developments. It includes the evaluation of the patent status by an IP team specialized in pharmaceutical matters. AMARIN possesses formulation and analytical laboratories, which follow GLP guidelines.

AMARIN designs and performs pre-clinical and clinical studies following GLP and GCP guidelines in order to evaluate bioavailability/bioequivalence and the efficacy/safety of the products under development. Clinical trials are performed in qualified hospitals and private Health Centers.

AMARIN does not have a marketing force and pursues a strategy of out-licensing its products to corporate partners. Nowadays, the company's business opportunities are, amongst others, focused in three main strategies: (a) Finding new partners for the existing projects or, (b) Developing new products on request or, (c) Developing early stage projects to be offered to selected candidates.
