Regulatory News:
BioAlliance Pharma SA (Paris:BIO) (Euronext Paris - BIO), an innovative Company dedicated to the development of orphan oncology products and to supportive care products, today publishes the major key milestones achieved during the third quarter of 2012.
Two key achievements will reinforce the Company’s capacity to create value:
In parallel, BioAlliance Pharma has pursued the registration procedure of Sitavig in the US and in Europe for the treatment of recurrent labial herpes, as well as the recruitment of patients in its Phase II clinical trial with Validive in the radio or chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer. The Company has also obtained the regulatory authorizations to start its Phase I/II trial with Amep in the metastatic melanoma.
reminds Judith Greciet, CEO of BioAlliance Pharma.
While awaiting the commercialization of Oravig in the United-States, the turnover for Q3 2012 amounted to €279,000, representing the royalties on Loramyc sales in Europe by our partner Therabel, as well as the staggering of the payments received under the Asian license agreements.
The consolidated cash reserves stood at €17.3 million as of September 30, 2012, enabling BioAlliance Pharma to pursue as planned its ongoing development activities. Non conditional payments expected from our partners Therabel and Vestiq should reinforce the Company’s resources within the next months.
