Puma sells commercialization rights to Nerlynx in Latin America

4 April 2018

Puma Biotechnology (Nasdaq: PBYI) has sold the Latin American rights to Nerlynx (neratinib) to Pint Pharma International, a company which focuses on oncology and other treatments in the region.

While the breast cancer treatment was approved in the USA in July last year, it has yet to be approved anywhere else, and the firm received a setback early this year when it admitted the EU regulator was unlikely to give it the green light.

Puma has nonetheless been lining up commercialization deals for Nerlynx in different parts of the world, ahead of possible regulatory decisions.
