Our team is committed to obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals for RHOFADE here in Japan and we look forward to adding it into our commercial portfolio as soon as possible."

    Under the exclusive license agreement, EPI Health will receive an upfront payment of $5.0 million, a $2.5 million milestone payment at the time of marketing approval in Japan, and royalty payments on net sales of the product in Japan.
