RedHill Biopharma has entered agreements with Cosmo Pharmaceuticals to manufacture two key products: RedHill's largest selling product in the U.S., Movantik, and RHB-204, currently in a Phase 3 U.S. study as a stand-alone, first-line orally-administered treatment for pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) disease.
"Movantik is currently our biggest commercial product,” said Steven Thomasian, vice president of supply chain management, RedHill Biopharma. “This agreement strengthens our qualified supply base and capacity moving forward and solidifies our ongoing strategic relationship with Cosmo.”
Davide Malavasi, Cosmo's head of manufacturing, said, "We are happy to strengthen our partnership with RedHill with the manufacturing of these two important products and therefore to further expand Cosmo's production capacities and capabilities.”
Movantik is the leading prescribed oral peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist (PAMORA) in the U.S. specifically designed to treat opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adult patients with chronic non-cancer pain. OIC is the most common and debilitating gastrointestinal adverse effect associated with opioid therapy, estimated to affect between 40-80% of the millions of patients taking chronic opioid therapy each year.
