BioLineRx licenses BL-5010 to Innovative Pharmaceutical

17 December 2007

Jerusalem, Israel-based BioLineRx, a clinical-stage drug development firm, has signed a worldwide exclusive license agreement with privately-held Innovative Pharmaceutical Concepts for the development and commercialization of BL-5010, a novel formulation for the non-surgical removal of skin lesions. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

According to BioLineRx, BL-5010 is a convenient treatment that offers an alternative to painful, invasive and expensive removal treatments such as surgery, cryotherapy or laser treatment. Because it is non-invasive, it poses minimal infection risk and no need for anesthesia or bandaging, the firm noted.

The product is applied topically onto the lesion for a few minutes, causing it to gradually dry out and shed from the skin within one-three weeks. BL-5010 also preserves the cellular structure of the lesion, enabling histological examination.
