Swedish pharma company Moberg Pharma AB has signed an exclusive license agreement with Taisho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd for development, registration and commercialization of MOB-015 in Japan.

Under the agreement, Moberg Pharma is eligible to receive milestones of up to $50 million contingent on development and commercial success, as well as supply fees including royalties.

Taisho will fund and conduct the development and registration activities in Japan, and will be marketing, distributing and selling MOB-015 in Japan upon completion of registration.
