The agreement will help expand access to Sovaldi and Harvoni, "life-saving medications that offer an improvement in the standard of care for the 12 million hepatitis C patients in India," he added.
This agreement is in addition to the licensing and technology transfer agreement that Mylan entered into with Gilead, which grants Mylan the non-exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute generic versions of Sovaldi and Harvoni, as well as another Hepatitis C of Gilead drug currently under development.
Sovaldi is the latest addition to Mylan India's new gastrointestinal segment called Hepato Care. The company also offers four additional unique and innovative segments - Critical Care, HIV Care, Women's Care and Oncology.
Sovaldi was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December 2013 based on clinical studies that showed, in combination with other agents, the drug achieved very high cure rates with a course of treatment as short as 12 weeks depending on viral genotype.
Harvoni was approved by the US FDA in October 2014 as a once-daily single tablet regimen for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 infection in adults.
