In August 2019, PharmaMar entered into a new licensing agreement with Janssen, which replaced a 2001 licensing agreement, under which Janssen retained the right to sell and distribute, on an exclusive basis, Yondelis in the USA.

Today, Yondelis is approved in more than 70 countries for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma and in some of these countries ovarian cancer as well.
