Durata Therapeutics

Durata Therapeutics was a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company founded in 2009 around anti-infective assets acquired from Pfizer's Vicuron division, headquartered first in Morristown, New Jersey and from 2012 in Chicago, Illinois. Its lead candidate was dalbavancin, a long-acting semisynthetic lipoglycopeptide antibiotic taken into Phase III trials from 2011 for acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections and later marketed as Dalvance. The company was backed by Canaan Partners and was acquired by Actavis (now Allergan) on November 17, 2014 for approximately $675 million, at which point it ceased to operate as an independent entity. Durata Therapeutics published no developer program, no public API, and no machine-readable API artifacts; its corporate domain duratatherapeutics.com no longer resolves. This profile is retained as a historical company record in the API Evangelist network.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
