PARIS, FRANCE AND CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESSWIRE / July 22, 2024 / Biophytis SA (Euronext Growth Paris:ALBPS), ("Biophytis" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of treatments for age-related diseases, today announces the deployment of its partnership strategy in Asia.

To expand its presence in this strategic region, Biophytis has today signed two contracts with local agents: one for Japan and South Korea, the other for China and Southeast Asia. These agents will leverage their networks within the pharmaceutical sector to support Biophytis in identifying partners for the drug candidate BIO101 (20-hydroxyecdysone) in these different countries.

This initiative is part of the partnership development strategy in Asia, aimed at accelerating the deployment of BIO101 in this key geography, the second largest pharmaceutical market in the world. Biophytis is determined to establish successful collaborations to meet patients' needs and make significant advances in the various targeted pathologies.

Japan and China are two strategic markets for Biophytis. Indeed, Japan has the largest population in the world suffering from sarcopenia, with more than 1 in 5 people aged 60 and over affected (source: Yuan 2023, Epidemiology of Sarcopenia, Metabolism). Additionally, more than 70 million Chinese adults are affected by obesity, making it the second-largest population worldwide with this pathology (source: ).

Following the exclusive license agreement signed with Blanver, one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in Brazil, for BIO101 (20-Hydroxyecdysone) in Latin America, Biophytis aims to sign new co-development and commercialization agreements with industrial partners in Asia and also in North America, the world's largest pharmaceutical market.
