Ethyol
On May 10, 2016, the Company announced an agreement with Clinigen Group Plc ("Clinigen") in which Cumberland acquired the exclusive rights to commercialize Ethyol® (amifostine) in the United States. Ethyol is a FDA approved cytoprotective drug indicated as an adjuvant therapy to reduce the incidence of xerostomia (dry mouth) as a side-effect in patients undergoing post-operative radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. It also reduces the cumulative renal toxicity associated with the repeated administration of cisplatin in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Under the terms of the agreement, Cumberland will be responsible for all marketing, promotion, and distribution of the product in the United States. There are no upfront payments required under the agreement. Cumberland will pay Clinigen royalty payments based on tiered levels of net sales. The Company is expected to start generating revenue from the sale of Ethyol during the third quarter of 2016.
