MONTPELLIER, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:



MedinCell (Paris:MEDCL) has recently reached the commercial stage with the market launch by Teva of UZEDY™ for the treatment of schizophrenia. UZEDY is the first innovative product based on MedinCell’s long-acting injectable (LAI) BEPO® technology approved by US FDA.

Teva recently provided the annual revenue guidance for UZEDY, projecting approximately $80 million for 2024. This revenue estimate is in line with MedinCell's anticipated earnings from UZEDY, as the company is set to receive royalties from sales and could earn up to $105 million in commercial milestones.

In parallel, MedinCell is developing a portfolio of innovative treatments also using the BEPO technology. This notably includes the following candidate treatments:

2 candidates in clinical Phase 3:

  • mdc-TJK (partnership with Teva): Potentially, the first long-acting injectable olanzapine with a favorable safety profile that could enable a large adoption for treatment of patients with more severe forms of schizophrenia
  • mdc-CWM (partnership with AIC): An innovative sustained-release formulation of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug celecoxib aiming at facilitating patient recovery after total knee replacement and decreasing the need for potentially addictive opioids

3 candidates ready for Phase 1 studies in 2024:

  • mdc-WWM: 6-month active subcutaneous contraceptive
  • mdc-GRT: Monthly subcutaneous tacrolimus LAI to prevent solid organ graft rejection
  • mdc-STM: Global Health program to fight malaria

Other programs are currently in the evaluation and formulation stage, some as part of the internal program development strategy, others within the framework of partnerships.
