Polpharma S.A., a manufacturer of drug products and active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), has announced its acquirement of biopharmaceutical company EPIRUS Biopharmaceuticals.
Pursuant to the agreement, Polpharma will acquire EPIRUS Netherlands’ proprietary CHOBC cell line platform, a fully-equipped laboratory and bioreactor capabilities for the development of monoclonal antibodies and protein therapeutics, while EPIRUS Biopharma will retain exclusive rights to develop BOW080 and BOW070 for the treatment of ultra-rare blood disorder and uncommon lymphoproliferative disorder respectively.
