Xeris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: XERS), a specialty pharmaceutical company leveraging its novel formulation technology platforms to develop and commercialize ready-to-use injectable and infusible drug formulations, today announced an exclusive agreement with Clinigen Group plc (AIM: CLIN, ‘Clinigen’) to manage the supply and distribution of Gvoke™ outside of the United States where Gvoke is not currently licensed.

“In an effort to make ready-to-use Gvoke as accessible as possible to people with diabetes and in response to requests while our MAA is under review with the EMA, we have partnered with Clinigen, a distributor of unlicensed medicines. With Clinigen’s global infrastructure and expertise in the distribution of important unlicensed medicines, we can enable people with diabetes around the world to access Gvoke,” said Paul R. Edick, Chairman and CEO of Xeris. “It is especially important during this global health crisis that people with diabetes, who the CDC and others have identified as an at-risk population, have access to medicines like Gvoke, which can enable them to self-treat and avoid going to a busy hospital or medical center to receive care.”

All Gvoke product requests must be submitted by the treating physician on behalf of the patient. Healthcare professionals can obtain details about the Gvoke Managed Access Program by calling the Clinigen customer service team at +44 (0) 1283 494 340 or emailing medicinesaccess@clinigengroup.com. Patients seeking medical information should contact their physician. Learn more at https://www.gvokeglucagon.com/hcp.
