Report

A strong quarter in the US

Photocure announced results for Q117 with 9% growth for the Hexvix/Cysview franchise compared to Q116. The US was a major driver, up 32% to NOK10m, though the Nordics fell by 4% to NOK9.7m due to currency and weakness in Denmark. Importantly, the company also recently announced that its Phase III trial in the bladder cancer surveillance market was successful, which should enable it to receive marketing authorisation in that market.
