Founded in February 1991, the company's present form is a result of a 2003 merger of three companies owned by Alfred E. Mann: Pharmaceutical Discovery Corporation (PDC), the cancer vaccine developer CTL ImmunoTherapies, Inc., and its sister company Allecure Corp, which was developing an allergy vaccine technology. Pharmaceutical Discovery was purchased in 2001 from Solomon Steiner; with that purchase MannKind acquired the Technosphere molecule and Medtone inhaler, upon which was developed its lead product, Afrezza ( inhalable insulin ).
The FDA approved Afrezza on June 27, 2014.
On August 11, 2014 MannKind entered into an exclusive global licensing agreement with Sanofi for Afrezza sales. Under the agreement, MannKind received $150 million cash from Sanofi, in exchange for sharing profits and losses of sales of Afrezza, with 65% for Sanofi and 35% for MannKind. On January 5, 2016, MannKind Corporation announced the termination of the license and collaboration agreement with Sanofi. By December 2017, the company had lost 11% of its trading volume due to the poor sales.
In March 2020, the company announced it was working with fellow pharmaceutical company Immix Biopharma to try to develop an inhalable treatment for acute respiratory distress syndrome, a lung disease.
