  • RedHill has been granted the exclusive right to co-promote Mytesi® (crofelemer 125 mg delayed-release tablets) in the U.S. to certain gastroenterologists and primary care physicians for the approved indication in people living with HIV/AIDS by Napo Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Jaguar Health(NASDAQ:JAGX) 

  • Mytesi® is an FDA-approved anti-diarrheal prescription drug indicated for the symptomatic relief of non-infectious diarrhea in adults with HIV/AIDS on anti-retroviral therapy (ART)      

  • RedHill expects to initiate the U.S. promotion of Mytesi® in the coming weeks
     
  • Mytesi®is the fourth product to be promoted by RedHill's gastrointestinal-focused U.S. salesforce, setting the stage for potential U.S. launch of RedHill’s late clinical-stage products, including TALICIA® (RHB-105) for H.pylori infection, with confirmatory Phase III study top-line results expected in Q4/2018

TEL-AVIV, Israel and RALEIGH, N.C., June 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RedHill Biopharma Ltd. (NASDAQ:RDHL) (Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange:RDHL) (“RedHill” or the “Company”), a specialty biopharmaceutical company primarily focused on late clinical-stage development and commercialization of proprietary drugs for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases,  today announced that it has entered into a co-promotion agreement with Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Napo), a human health company developing and commercializing novel gastrointestinal prescription products from plants used traditionally in rainforest areas, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) (Jaguar), granting RedHill exclusive U.S. rights to co-promote Mytesi® (crofelemer 125 mg delayed-release tablets)1 for the approved indication in people living with HIV/AIDS with respect to certain gastroenterologists and primary care physicians. RedHill expects to commence U.S. promotion of Mytesi® in the coming weeks.

Mytesi® is the only anti-diarrheal studied in and U.S. FDA-approved for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adults living with HIV/AIDS on anti-retroviral therapy (ART). Mytesi® is a prescription treatment for diarrhea that works differently, by acting locally in the GI tract to normalize the flow of water.

“We believe this co-promotion program will play a significant role in extending the reach of our commercial efforts into the GI medical community in support of the treatment of people living with HIV/AIDS with Mytesi®, a novel, first-in-class gastrointestinal product,” Lisa Conte, Jaguar's president and CEO, stated. “Under the terms of the agreement, RedHill will be compensated based on performance, and the program can be extended by agreement between the two companies.”

Dror Ben-Asher, RedHill’s CEO, said:“We look forward to working with Napo to make this important drug available to more patients suffering from diarrhea associated with HIV/AIDS.  Mytesi® is the fourth product to be promoted by RedHill and the first first-in-class, FDA-approved drug to be promoted by our gastrointestinal-focused U.S. sales force. We share Napo’s enthusiasm that Mytesi® will be a successful, novel entry to GI care, and we are eager to support its commercial expansion.”

RedHill already promotes three gastrointestinal products in the U.S., Donnatal® (Phenobarbital, Hyoscyamine Sulfate, Atropine Sulfate, Scopolamine Hydrobromide)2, Esomeprazole Strontium Delayed-Release Capsules 49.3 mg3 and EnteraGam® (serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate, SBI)4.

About Mytesi®:         
Mytesi® (crofelemer) is an anti-diarrheal indicated for the symptomatic relief of non-infectious diarrhea in adult patients with HIV/AIDS on anti-retroviral therapy (ART). Mytesi® is not indicated for the treatment of infectious diarrhea. Rule out infectious etiologies of diarrhea before starting Mytesi®. If infectious etiologies are not considered, there is a risk that patients with infectious etiologies will not receive the appropriate therapy and their disease may worsen. In clinical studies, the most common adverse reactions occurring at a rate greater than placebo were upper respiratory tract infection (5.7%), bronchitis (3.9%), cough (3.5%), flatulence (3.1%), and increased bilirubin (3.1%).

See full Prescribing Information at Mytesi.com. Crofelemer, the active ingredient in Mytesi®, is a botanical (plant-based) drug extracted and purified from the red bark sap of the medicinal Croton lechleri tree in the Amazon rainforest. Napo has established a sustainable harvesting program for crofelemer to ensure a high degree of quality and ecological integrity.
