"We're excited to be partnering with Beta Bionics by being the exclusive provider of the glucagon component that will facilitate their development of the first dual-hormone pump for people with diabetes," said Paul R. Edick, Chairman and CEO of Xeris. "We will move quickly to support Beta Bionics in this important development program."

"If insulin is like the gas pedal in your car, then glucagon is the brakes," said Sean Saint, CEO of Beta Bionics. "Beta Bionics has always felt that a bi-hormonal glucose control system has real advantages over insulin alone…just like the brakes in your car. Now with this partnership with Xeris, we are ready to take the next step in bringing this system to market."

Under the terms of the License Agreement, Xeris has the potential to receive development payments, plus low double-digit royalties based on future sales of the Xeris glucagon for pumps and pump systems.
