“The addition of JATENZO to Tolmar’s robust portfolio further strengthens our position as a leader in urology and men’s health,” Anil D’Souza, president and CEO of Tolmar Pharmaceuticals. ” We have seen tremendous success in urology through our foundational therapy, ELIGARD, a market-leading product for advanced prostate cancer. This acquisition advances Tolmar’s overall business strategy, provides substantial growth potential and helps advance our mission to advocate for patients through our therapies. In addition, we are confident that adding JATENZO to the products promoted by our successful urology field sales force will lead to fast and more profitable growth for this differentiated product.”
