Regis Lhomme’s six-year term ended in 2006, when he assumed leadership of Pfizer’s operations in Russia. As of 2010, Lhomme serves as chief executive of Amgen Romania.
Amgen is a leading human therapeutics company in the biotechnology industry. Biotechnology medicine consists of novel and efficient products and treatment against serious illness such as cancer, kidney disease and osteoporosis. Biotech products account for 20% of the medicines currently in the market. Moreover, the majority of the newest therapeutic techniques are based on genetic engineering, the company said.

Amgen reported revenues from its global operations of $14.6 billion, and expects $15.1 – 15.5 billion.
