HanAll to develop Nautilus products in South Korea

12 March 2007

Nautilus Biotech, a French drug discovery and development company, has signed a collaboration and license agreement with HanAll Pharmaceutical to develop and commercialize three of its products in South Korea: Belerofon (interferon alpha); Vitatropin (human growth hormone); and Eporal (erythropoietin).

The agreement with HanAll is limited to the territory of South Korea; Nautilus will continue to pursue the clinical development of these products in the USA as part of the company's strategy for global commercialiszation of these products.

The three Nautilus proprietary proteins included in the deal have been designed for extended half-life and oral availability. By reducing the number and frequency of treatments needed and offering oral administration, these new drugs will enhance patient convenience and compliance, says the French firm.
