The agreement provides Hikma with exclusive rights to sell one of Sciecure’s niche injectable antiviral medicines across the US for a minimum of 8 years, with an option to extend this partnership for an additional 2 years.
Sciecure expects to file this product for approval with the US Food and Drug Administration in early 2019.
