"CBPE SECURES 22X INVESTMENT MULTIPLE ON SALE OF IDIS TO CLINIGEN GROUP PLC"

IDIS grew to become the clear global leader in the operation of Managed Access Programmes for pharmaceutical companies.  These programmes are designed to provide access to unlicensed medicines not available to patients via the traditional access route (many approved medicines may still may be unlicensed in certain countries), providing benefits not just for patients and healthcare professionals who have run out of treatment options, but also for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that hold the products that could help.
