Jaguar Health and SynWorld Mutually Terminate License Agreement for Canalevia in Dogs in China
Jaguar Health, Inc.
- Jaguar Health (NASDAQ:JAGX) and SynWorld Technologies terminated the exclusive license agreement for Canalevia (crofelemer) to treat diarrhea in dogs in China, effective January 31, 2023.
- Termination is driven by Jaguar's 2023 strategic focus on human drug development, including Phase 3 OnTarget trial for cancer therapy-related diarrhea.
- SynWorld's General Manager Tao Wang, a long-term shareholder of restricted Jaguar stock, fully supports the mutual termination decision.
- All licenses granted to SynWorld under the agreement were revoked, and rights reverted back to Jaguar.
- Jaguar expects enrollment in the OnTarget trial to complete in Q2 2023; also prioritizing proof-of-concept trial for short bowel syndrome and congenital diarrheal disorders.
