The back-ended deal will cost Paradigm $16.5M in a move managing director Paul Rennie says is “very exciting” – especially as it complements ongoing plans.

“We won’t be changing our focus; we’re still focused on concluding phase three clinical trials with the injectable PPS, but longer term, we have this acquisition, which means we can develop the oral drug for osteoarthritis,” Mr Rennie explained.
