Agreement covers commercialization of BIO101 in Latin America

Biophytis and Blanver intend to collaborate on manufacturing and joint clinical development for Latin America

Paris (France) and Cambridge (Massachusetts, USA), June, 20^th, 2024 – 07:00 am CET – Biophytis SA (Euronext Growth Paris : ALBPS), ("Biophytis" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company specialized in the development of therapeutics for age-related diseases, today announces the signature of an exclusive license agreement with Blanver, one of the leading and most trusted pharmaceutical company in Brazil, for BIO101 (20-Hydroxyecdysone) in Latin American including, but not limited to Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and Colombia.

The agreement provides that Blanver will be responsible for the registration, marketing and commercialization of BIO 101 (20-Hydroxyecdysone) in its various indications: obesity, respiratory infections due to Covid-19, sarcopenia and Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) - once Biophytis has successfully completed the planned clinical development programmes for its drug candidate. With 40 years of history, Blanver has become an expert in infectious diseases, osteoporosis and metabolic disorders, which is a perfect match with Biophytis. In addition of Brazil, Blanver has an extensive network of unique distributors that covers the whole Latin America region.

Under the terms of this partnership, Biophytis will be able to receive up to €108 million including an upfront payment and further additional payments if certain objectives are achieved. Biophytis is also eligible to receive double-digit royalties on net sales of BIO101 (20-Hydroxyecdysone) generated in the collaboration territory, after obtaining future marketing authorisations.

This collaboration in one of the main pharma regions in the world, underscores the potential of BIO101 (20-Hydroxyecdysone) which is based on the positive clinical results already obtained in several indications.

Stanislas Veillet, CEO of Biophytis, stated: "I warmly welcome this new partnership which is a key milestone that will enable Biophytis to further deploy its strategic roadmap, especially in obesity. This is a unique opportunity for both companies and comes at a crucial time as Brazil is the most fast-growing pharmaceutical market, representing more than $23 billion in 2023. In the LATAM region, 100 million of patients are suffering from obesity. We look forward to continuing our clinical and regulatory development work with Blanver over the coming months and to exploring with them early market access opportunities for our most advanced indications. Together, we aim to deliver solutions to patients and physicians over the years ahead."

Sergio Frangioni, CEO of Blanver, commented: “Innovation is part of the Blanver DNA, and we are thrilled to partner with Biophytis, to bring this unique medicine in Latin America. We are very confident that the clinical study of the novel BIO101 (20-hydroxyecdysone), will show encouraging results, which will support the medical community to obesity, their effects and bring health and quality of life to so many patients who suffer from this condition.”
