Diaceutics PMx Promotional Partner Contract Enhancement
Transition to new PMx customer and enhanced commercial terms agreed post the
license of US rights to BIZENGRI(®) (zenocutuzumab - zbco) to Partner
Therapeutics Inc.
Extended multi-year PMx promotional partnership to be worth up to £11.5m
New York, Belfast and London, 26 March 2025 - Diaceutics PLC
(https://www.diaceutics.com/) (AIM: DXRX), a leading technology and solutions
provider to the pharma and biotech industry, today announces that it has
agreed contractual terms with Partner Therapeutics, Inc. (Partner
Therapeutics), the new US license holder for the oncology precision medicine
BIZENGRI® (zenocutuzumab - zbco). Partner Therapeutics will continue to
deploy the PMx commercialisation solutions previously contracted with the
previous US license holder. The Partner Therapeutics PMx contract supersedes
the contract previously announced on 19 August 2024.
Ryan Keeling, Diaceutics' Chief Executive Officer, commented: "We are very
excited to be working with Partner Therapeutics as they commercialise this
novel and important therapy for patients with unmet needs. Our platform will
enable Partner Therapeutics to identify and ensure patients get the
opportunity to be treated with the optimal oncology therapy as fast as
possible. The team at Partner Therapeutics recognises the need for an
innovative commercial model and the potential for our PMx solution to deliver
significant value as they bring BIZENGRI(®) to market."
PMx is a commercialisation service designed to combine all of Diaceutics'
unique solutions to ensure patients are identified, based on their unique
genomic profile, and offered the optimal treatment for their condition as fast
as possible. With Diaceutics' best in class daily Signal product at its core,
Diaceutics will provide all of the DXRX platform services including patient
identification, patient recruitment, diagnostic test adoption &
optimisation and physician engagement & education.
PMx represents a novel commercialisation solution which allows pharma and
biotech companies to launch precision medicines in a more lean and agile way,
whilst accelerating the adoption curve and maximising patients on therapy - an
approach that Diaceutics believes is revolutionary for the precision medicine
market.
Terms of the Agreement
Under the terms of the agreement with Partner Therapeutics, Diaceutics will
leverage its DXRX platform, specifically its best-in-class genomic lab data,
lab network, omni-channel marketing, digital and peer to peer physician
education to enable the commercialisation of BIZENGRI(®).
This agreement follows on from the original BIZENGRI(® )PMx contract
announced 19 August 2024, superseding it from 01 April 2025, and follows the
sale of the US rights of BIZENGRI(®) to Partner Therapeutics.
Diaceutics will initially deploy its commercialisation solutions through to 30
September 2026, which is expected to be worth up to £4.5 million in
recurring service revenues over that timeframe. The contract includes annual
autorenewal terms, which if exercised at the end of September 2026, would see
the contract extended through to September 2028, which would deliver an
additional £7.0 million in recurring service revenue over that timeframe.
The Partner Therapeutics contract consists entirely of recurring service fee
revenue. The contingent milestone fees which were originally negotiated as
part of the previous contract, have been replaced in favour of guaranteed
recurring service fees.
£1.5 million of service fee revenue from the original PMx contract has
already been recognised in the first 10 months of the contract through to 01
April 2025.
