Context

Zealand Pharma is a late-stage Danish biotechnology company focused on the development of peptide-based medicines for metabolic and gastrointestinal diseases.

The company has already brought more than 10 drug candidates into clinical development, and its lead drug candidate Dasiglucagon HypoPal® Rescue Pen is currently being reviewed for regulatory approval in severe hypoglycaemia by the US FDA, with the PDUFA date (review deadline) set for 27 March 2021.

Dasiglucagon HypoPal® Rescue Pen would further contribute elevating Zealand Pharma to commercial stage, with the potential to extend the product’s reach in additional valuable indications.

The company intends to use the net proceeds of the transaction to help fund commercialization and pre-launch activities for Dasiglucagon HypoPal® Rescue Pen and to support other pipeline projects, including ongoing phase 3 trials for glepaglutide and follow-up compound dapiglutide, both for SBS (short bowel syndrome).
