VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- BioVaxys Technology Corp. (CSE: BIOV) (FRA: 5LB) (OTCQB: BVAXF) ("BioVaxys" or "Company") announced today that as part of BioVaxys' efforts to refocus on immunotherapeutics, Biovaxys and Procare Health ("Procare") have jointly and amicably agreed to terminate the US Distribution Agreement for Papilocare and Immunocaps.
The partnership between BioVaxys and Procare for the EU clinical development of BioVaxys' ovarian cancer vaccine BVX-0918 will continue and remains unchanged.
BioVaxys President and Chief Operating Officer Kenneth Kovan stated, "While we believe the Papilocare® is a highly promising product, the timetable of the regulatory pathway in the US is not aligned anymore with our strategic objectives to focus on immunotherapeutics. The termination of the agreement strengthens the balance sheet of BioVaxys and allows the management team to advance certain initiatives related to immunotherapy. We appreciate the continued partnership with Procare on the EU clinical development of our ovarian cancer vaccine."
