Notes to Editors 
 
About Verona Pharma plc 
 
Verona Pharma plc is a UK-based clinical stage biopharmaceutical company 
focused on the development of innovative prescription medicines to treat 
respiratory diseases with significant unmet medical needs, such as chronic 
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and cystic fibrosis. 
 
Verona Pharma's lead drug, RPL554, is a first-in-class drug in Phase 2 trials 
as a nebulised treatment for acute exacerbations of COPD in the hospital 
setting.  The drug is a dual phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3/4 inhibitor and 
therefore has both bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects, which are 
essential to the improvement of patients with COPD and asthma. 
 
Verona Pharma is also building a broader portfolio of RPL554-containing 
products to maximise its benefit to patients and its value.  This includes the 
very significant markets for COPD and asthma maintenance therapy.  The Company 
is also exploring the potential of the drug in different diseases, such as 
cystic fibrosis, where it is in pre-clinical testing and has received a Venture 
and Innovation Award from the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
