In 2025, BioArctic signed an option, collaboration, and license agreement with Novartis Pharma AG, involving an upfront payment of $30 million, to utilize its BrainTransporter™ technology for a new neurodegeneration treatment. The company also reported record-high profits in its 2025 Annual Report.
