Daiichi Sankyo Europe and Esperion Therapeutics have agreed to a $125 million change to their collaboration agreement, settling a legal dispute that erupted after the trial readout of the cardiovascular drug on which they are partnered.
The companies announced Wednesday that Daiichi Sankyo would pay Esperion $100 million this month ahead of potential approvals by the European Medicines Agency for two cardiovascular drugs: Nilemdo and Nustendi (marketed in the US as Nexletol and Nexlizet, respectively). Daiichi will also pay an additional $25 million to Esperion in the quarter after the EMA’s decision on the pending application for the drugs.
