Tanner Pharma Group and Biodexa Launch Global Early Access Program for FAP Patients31.3.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release

Tanner Pharma Group, a global provider of specialty medicine access solutions, and Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (Nasdaq: BDRX), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative products for gastrointestinal cancers, have announced a strategic partnership to enable global access to eRapa for patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) through an Early Access / Named Patient Program.

Through this collaboration, Tanner Pharma will facilitate compliant, controlled access to eRapa
