Terumo and Biosensors to sell Nabori DES system

Singapore: Terumo and Biosensors International announced an extension of their existing licensing agreements, under which Terumo can continue to incorporate BioMatrix technology in the production, marketing and selling of Terumo's Nobori drug‐eluting stent (DES) systems in markets worldwide, outside of the United States.  

Terumo and Biosensors have agreed to extend the original licensing agreement for territories outside of Japan until December 2014. During the original term of such agreement for Japan, Terumo continues to benefit from its existing rights in Japan to manufacture, market and sell its Nobori® DES systems incorporating BioMatrix technology.

Under the original agreements, Terumo began introducing its Nobori® DES system in global markets outside of Japan and the United States in 2008, and in Japan in 2011. Nobori is now sold in over 20 countries across Europe, Asia and Latin America. Nobori incorporates both Biolimus A9 (BA9), an anti‐restenotic drug developed and patented by Biosensors specifically for use with stents, as well as Biosensors' unique abluminal biodegradable polymer coating.
