Entera Bio Ltd. (NASDAQ: ENTX) today announced that it has appointed Haya Taitel, Head of Sanofi’s Global Transplant Franchise as an independent director to the Company’s Board of Directors.

"We are thrilled that Haya has joined our Board," said Miranda Toledano, Chief Executive Officer of Entera. "With more than 30 years of experience building industry-leading commercial organizations across big pharma and biotech, Haya brings a veteran and unique perspective to Entera’s Board of Directors. We believe that Haya’s track record shepherding late-stage products through regulatory approval to commercial readiness, implementing payor and channel strategies for blockbusters, including products in women’s health, will be invaluable as we continue to prepare our global strategy related to EB613’s phase 3 program and our future pipeline. We are humbled that Haya, in addition to our existing clinical and regulatory advisory board, recognizes the potential for EB613 and its unique positioning to potentially alter the paradigm for post-menopausal women with osteoporosis. These champions are paramount to adequately preparing the success of our programs.”

"Entera is looking to make a real difference with its platform technology and core products across major disease areas with significant unmet need, especially with EB613 for women at high risk of fracture, there are over 100 million women globally who could become candidates for this important therapy,” said Haya Taitel. “I have been following Entera’s regulatory development and the progress of this program closely and am looking forward to working with the Board and management team as Entera enters this pivotal stage for EB613. I am also excited for the pipeline candidates selected where Entera’s platform appears to provide a breakthrough simple mini tablet format for patients to better actively manage their health, such as GLP-2 and PTH for hypoparathyroidism.”
