10 December 2007

Paris, France-based HRA Pharma, which is developing medicines and products for women's health and endocrine disease, has entered into a licensing agreement with Swiss firm PregLem for the European development and commercialization of the former's selective progesterone receptor modulator, ulipristal, for the treatment of various benign gynecological disorders.

HRA will retain rights on the product for the rest of the world and will receive payments from PregLem on the achievement of specific development and regulatory milestones, as well as sales royalties.

The French company has already successfully completed a Phase II clinical trial of ulipristal to treat uterine fibroids. PregLem will further develop the compound in this indication by undertaking a pivotal Phase III program in 2008.
