ISSOIRE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:
BIOCORP (Paris:ALCOR) (FR0012788065 – ALCOR / PEA‐PME eligible), a French company specializing in the development and manufacturing of medical devices and smart drug delivery systems, and AgaMatrix, a developer and manufacturer of novel solutions for blood glucose monitoring, announce today that they have reached an agreement including binding terms for distribution in the US and European markets and co-development activities to be finalized with definitive agreements in the next 3-5 months.
The two companies operate to improve compliance for diabetic patients and decided to join their efforts for providing a unique solution on the marketplace.
BIOCORP designs, develops and manufactures Mallya® (formerly known with the project name Easylog), the add-on fitting insulin pen injectors that captures key treatment information (selected dose, date and time of injection) and transmits it to a dedicated mobile app.
On one hand, AgaMatrix gets non-exclusive rights to distribute Mallya® in the US, the UK and the EU market in the diabetes field. And BIOCORP also grants AgaMatrix exclusive rights to license and distribute the device in the US white label market.
On the other hand, BIOCORP and AgaMatrix have co-development projects to offer a breakthrough innovation combining AgaMatrix and BIOCORP expertise.
“The opportunity with AgaMatrix to bring Mallya on the US and European markets is very promising and a key milestone in our strategy. Beyond that, collaborating on a specific solution together with AgaMatrix continues to position BIOCORP at the forefront of innovation and providing the most effective solution for the benefits of patients,” said Eric Dessertenne, COO of BIOCORP.
BIOCORP estimates that this contract could generate as much as 20M Euros of revenue over the next five years and will disclose more precise information and estimates in the future as the product is planned to officially reach the market in 2019*.
