MONMOUTH JUNCTION, NJ, DÜSSELDORF, GERMANY and BARCELONA, SPAIN, December 8, 2020/ PRNewswire/ – Tris Pharma, Inc. (“Tris”), a specialty pharmaceutical company with a robust portfolio of FDA-approved products for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and related disorders, and Neuraxpharm Group (“Neuraxpharm”), a leading European specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the central nervous system (CNS), announced today that they have entered into an agreement whereby Neuraxpharm received exclusive rights to commercialize Tris’ FDA-approved Quillivant XR and Quillichew ER in Europe.
“We are excited to add Tris’ differentiated ADHD medications to our CNS portfolio,” said Dr. Jörg-Thomas Dierks, Neuraxpharm’s CEO. “Both products offer a unique clinical profile, addressing the challenges experienced by many younger ADHD patients who have difficulty swallowing pills and finding an optimal dose.
