Nordic Group

Nordic Group announced today that it has reached an agreement with Bayer HealthCare in which Nordic will acquire Trasylol (aprotinin injection) worldwide excluding the United States. Under this agreement, Nordic will become the Marketing Authorization Holder for aprotinin in the relevant Territories. This follows the opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) from February 2012, recommending that the marketing authorisation for aprotinin should be reinstated in the European Union.
