Viragen Inc. Granted Multiferon®’s Exclusive Marketing Rights in Australia and New Zealand to Orphan Australia
Viragen, Inc. (Amex: VRA) together with its majority-owned subsidiary, Viragen International, Inc. (OTC: VGNI) have recently completed a license agreement that bestows exclusive rights to Orphan Australia to market, sell and distribute Multiferon® (multi-subtype, human alpha interferon) in Australia and New Zealand. Orphan Australia, a privately owned pharmaceutical company based in Melbourne, providing niche products to Australia, New Zealand and selected South East Asian countries will be responsible for obtaining regulatory approvals for Multiferon® and will determine the most appropriate manner to enter other regional countries aswell.

Though complete financial terms were not disclosed, the said agreement provides Viragen with an up-front license fee, and additional milestone payments to be paid upon receipt of reimbursement authorization for Multiferon® in Australia and possibly other countries to be added later.

multiferon.bmpViragen has estimated the agreement to be valued at approximately $10 to 15 million (USD) per year for the company, pending regulatory approval and reimbursement authorization, and based on revenue forecasts for peak year sales. Multiferon® is an alpha interferon drug product that contains a unique mixture of multiple subtypes of human interferon (a1, a2, a8, a10, a14, a21) and was approved in Sweden in February 2006 as a first-line adjuvant treatment of high-risk malignant melanoma.
