The World Orphan Drug Alliance (WODA), a global alliance of commercial distributors focused on providing access to treatments for rare diseases and specialty medicines in complex and underserved markets around the world, today announced a long-term, multi-territorial distribution agreement with Theratechnologies Inc. (“Theratechnologies”) for EGRIFTA SV® in 41 countries.

“We are excited to partner with Theratechnologies and support them in addressing markets outside of North America. Our multi-territorial platform provides an alternative for biotech companies seeking a one-stop solution for the commercialization of their products. The Alliance currently covers 68 markets through five separate entities, providing a broad outreach with a local focus,” highlighted Patrick Jordan, Chairman of WODA. “The Alliance members – Vector Pharma (MENAT), Medis (CEE) and Orphan DC G (LATAM) – are committed to making EGRIFTA SV® readily available throughout their territories.”

“We are pleased that under WODA’s Named Patient Program adults living with HIV who have lipodystrophy and excess abdominal fat will now be able to access EGRIFTA SV® in markets where this was previously not available,” added John Leasure, Global Commercial Officer of Theratechnologies.
