Tergus Pharma and Phenom Pharmaceuticals announced today that they have entered into an agreement for Tergus to develop a unique delivery solution to help prevent infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

“Tergus is thrilled to work together with Phenom on such an impactful project,” said Dr. Vijendra Nalamothu, Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Tergus Pharma. “This has the potential to have a huge impact on global health and wellness in the future.”

Dr. Michelle L. Rivera, MD, founder and CEO of Phenom Pharmaceuticals, said, “Tergus’ reputation as a global leader in topical pharmaceutical R&D and manufacturing is a perfect fit for our ground-breaking concept to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
