“We are very pleased to partner with Melinta to bring these life-saving products to Canada. We believe these products will address unmet needs and will be of tremendous benefit to Canadian patients, particularly in our fight to combat the global threat of antimicrobial resistance. We look forward to the approval and commercialization of BAXDELA, KIMYRSA, ORBACTIV and VABOMERE,” said George Gafrey, President of Xediton. “These products have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for indications that include the treatment of infections caused by organisms on Canada’s Pathogens of Interest List. This will make our subsequent submissions to Health Canada potentially eligible for Priority Review, an expedited regulatory pathway here in Canada.”

We are confident that Xediton brings the right amount of energy and experience to effectively bring our novel anti-infective portfolio to market throughout this region. Xediton has built an impressive business model over the years in both registering and commercializing hospital-based products licensed from the US and we look forward to supporting their continued efforts for commercializing our portfolio as well.”
