MONTPELLIER, France–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Regulatory News:

Medincell (Paris:MEDCL):

Christophe Douat, CEO of MedinCell, said: The initiation of coverage by HC Wainwright’s equity research team and their recommendation represent a significant validation of our company’s potential. It underscores the growing interest in Medincell within the U.S. biopharmaceutical sector and strengthens our strategic objective to enhance our visibility among American investors.

The initiation of coverage by HC Wainwright & Co. occurs as MedinCell has recently reached significant milestones, notably:

• US FDA approval and succesfull market launch by Teva of UZEDY ® for maintenance treatment of schizophgrenia in May 2023. UZEDY ® is the first royalty-generating product based on MedinCell’s long-acting injectable (LAI) technology approved;
• Positive Phase 3 efficacy results evaluating mdc-TJK, a second antipsychotic LAI developed with Teva, announced in May 2024. Mdc-TJK aims to be the first long-acting injectable of olanzapine with a favorable safety profile that could enable a large adoption for treatment of patients with more severe forms of schizophrenia. The comprehensive Phase 3 safety data package is expected in H2 2024;
• Start of a collaboration with AbbVie (NYSE:) to co-develop and commercialize up to six therapeutic products across multiple therapeutic areas and indications announced in April 2024.

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is one of the U.S. oldest and most trusted financial institutions. www.hcwco.com
