Sandoz announced the launch of Hyrimoz® (adalimumab) citrate-free high concentration formulation (HCF; 100 mg/mL) in Europe. The medicine will become available to patients progressively across European markets.
Hyrimoz® HCF, like the currently available 50mg/mL version of Hyrimoz®, is indicated for all conditions covered by the reference medicine*: rheumatic diseases, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, plaque psoriasis, uveitis and hidradenitis suppurativa.
Hyrimoz® citrate-free HCF is an updated formulation (100 mg/mL) to the currently available Hyrimoz® 50 mg/mL and offers a 50 percent reduction in injection volume, thereby potentially decreasing the number of injections required for patients who need 80 mg/mL or higher dosing. The HCF formulation is administered with the familiar Hyrimoz® SensoReady® pen, aiming for an enhanced yet familiar patient experience.
The launch of Hyrimoz ® HCF strengthens the Sandoz biosimilar portfolio in immunology, including Erelzi® (biosimilar etanercept), Zessly® (biosimilar infliximab) and Rixathon® (biosimilar rituximab, including rheumatoid arthritis indication). Hyrimoz® citrate-free HCF (adalimumab-adaz) launched in the US in July 2023.
