(688177:SH), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of innovative therapies and a pipeline of biosimilars, today announced the company has reached licensing and supply agreements with Pharmapark LLC, for BAT2206, its ustekinumab biosimilar, under which Pharmapark will have exclusive rights to distribute and market the drug with a status of a local product in Russia and other CIS countries. Bio-Thera and Pharmapark’s partnership was initiated around a licensing and supply agreement for Pharmapark to distribute and market BAT2506, a golimumab biosimilar, in Russia and other CIS countries.

Bio-Thera’s BAT2206 has completed a Phase I study and is currently being evaluated in a global Phase III clinical study including patients from China, Russia and other countries. Bio-Thera intends to file for regulatory approval with the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Pharmapark will be responsible for filing the dossier in Russia and other CIS countries.
