Bharat Biotech - Ocugen agreement amended to expand Covaxin commercialization rights to include Canada
Hyderabad: Bharat Biotech and Ocugen have announced that they have entered into an amendment to their Co-development, Supply, and Commercialization Agreement to expand Ocugen's exclusive territory to commercialize COVAXIN to now also include Canada, in addition to Ocugen's existing rights to commercialize COVAXIN in the United States.
"This amendment to expand our rights to commercialize COVAXIN into Canada speaks to our strong relationship with Bharat Biotech and our joint dedication to bring this unique yet traditional vaccine to additional countries. As we work towards the submission of the emergency use application in the US, we will simultaneously seek authorization under interim order for emergency use in Canada. We believe COVAXIN has the potential to play a key role in saving lives from COVID-19 in the US and Canada, as well as across the globe, due to the strong immune response it generates against multiple antigens," said Dr. Shankar Musunuri, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, and Co-founder of Ocugen.
