August 7, 2025 (PDF Version)
Provides access to broad-reaching nationwide network of specialty pharmacy and ambulatory infusion suites across the U.S.
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. & BANNOCKBURN, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Aug. 7, 2025– Quince Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: QNCX), a
late-stage biotechnology company dedicated to unlocking the power of a patient’s own biology for the treatment of rare diseases, today announced
that it has formed a strategic relationship with Option Care Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: OPCH), the nation’s largest independent provider of home and
ambulatory infusion services, to support the commercial development and efficient launch of Quince’s lead asset, encapsulated dexamethasone
sodium phosphate (eDSP) in the U.S., assuming positive study results and subsequent regulatory approval.
The strategic relationship will leverage Option Care Health’s robust network of specialty pharmacies and ambulatory infusion suites to provide for the
administration of eDSP in an effective and efficient way while delivering this innovative treatment to patients. With a national footprint of more than 90
full-service pharmacies and 180-plus ambulatory infusion suites located across the U.S., Option Care Health is well positioned to dramatically
enhance Quince’s ability to provide patients with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) access to eDSP treatment, including greater geographic flexibility to
match patient locations and eDSP administration needs, an improved and standardized patient journey with higher control and consistency across
eDSP administration sites, the benefit of contracting with a single provider versus multiple individual academic centers of excellence, and scalability to
treat patients in additional targeted indications such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Additionally, the engagement will be supported by
Option Care Health’s comprehensive suite of enhanced service capabilities, including third-party logistics (3PL) and inventory distribution
management, program management, customized patient registration and hub support, clinician-delivered services, physician reporting, and data
collection and reporting.
Charles Ryan, J.D., Ph.D., Quince’s President who manages several departments including Commercial, said, “We are very pleased to enter into a
strategic partnership with Option Care Health that is designed to greatly improve the patient journey while also establishing an effective and efficient
commercialization pathway for our highly innovative lead asset, eDSP. Option Care Health is a strong partner with a deep understanding of the
complexities of rare disease treatments. We look forward to working together to leverage all the benefits of its nationwide integrated care platform of
specialty pharmacy, infusion suites, and nursing services for the benefit of patients with A-T.”
Eric Daugherty, Senior Vice President, Biopharma Relations, of Option Care Health, said, “As a leading provider in the treatment of rare and orphan
diseases, our organization is honored to have been selected by Quince as its specialty infusion therapy partner. Together, we are committed to making
their novel eDSP asset accessible for patients with A-T across the U.S. as Quince readies for commercial launch and ultimately looks to engage
providers and payers in a seamless way.”
