Home > Press > BioAlliance Pharma Receives Market Approval for Loramyc® in the United Kingdom and Denmark
Abstract:
BioAlliance Pharma SA (Paris: BIO) today announces, following the end of the European Mutual Recognition Procedure last December (with France as Reference Member State) that it has just received the Marketing Authorisation for Loramyc® in the UK and Denmark.
The grant of the Marketing Authorisation in the UK represents an important milestone for BioAlliance Pharma especially with the payment of €2.5 million by its partner SpePharm, according to the terms of the agreement signed in March 2007, which led to the creation of the SpeBio JV for the distribution of Loramyc® in Europe.
"We are delighted of this European success which confirms the quality and the efficiency of our development and regulatory teams and experts. Currently being launched in France, Loramyc® will be present on the European market in 2008 as planned. The other main European countries should grant their Marketing Authorisation for Loramyc® in the very near future", stated Dominique Costantini Chief Executive Officer.
