TEL AVIV, Israel, & MADRID, Spain I April 04, 2024 I Teva Pharmaceuticals International GmbH, a subsidiary of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA) and mAbxience, a Fresenius Kabi majority-owned group with partial ownership from Insud Pharma, today announced they have entered a strategic licensing agreement for a biosimilar candidate currently in development for the treatment of multiple oncology indications. Biosimilars show promising potential in providing more cost-effective alternatives to existing oncology therapies, thereby addressing a critical need in global oncology care.
The licensing agreement covers multiple global markets, including in Europe and the United States, signaling a major step in mAbxience’s global expansion strategy, and supports a key element of Teva’s Pivot to Growth strategy, announced in 2023, to expand its biosimilar pipeline through business development and strategic partnerships.

Teva will lead the regulatory processes and commercialization in the designated regions, to ensure access to a broader patient population.
“Teva is pleased to form this strategic alliance with mAbxience, who share our commitment to accelerate the delivery of impactful medicines to patients worldwide,” says Angus Grant, PhD, Executive Vice President of Business Development at Teva. “This collaboration reflects Teva’s ideal strategic partnership model to optimize development costs, mitigate risk and leverage our extensive commercial capabilities.”
