Huonslab previously validated the equivalent non-clinical effectiveness of HYDIFFUZE™ compared to Enhanze through a dye dispersion assay in a mouse model, demonstrating it as a locally acting and transient permeation enhancer. Additionally, biological equivalence between rituximab/HYDIFFUZE™ and rituximab/Enhanze was confirmed in a comparative PK study in rats.
Dr. Young Sun Lee, Chief Business Officer at Huonslab, mentioned, “The substance patent for Enhanze has already expired in Europe and South Korea and will expire in the United States in 2027, based on verification by our external patent law firm.”
“With comprehensive FTO analysis and Huonslab's own process patent, we are equipped with unparalleled excellence and rigorous scientific documentation to establish ourselves as a global leader in high concentration antibody formulation (HCAF) for subcutaneous delivery.”
Lee concluded, “We are speeding up the pivotal Phase 1 trial of Hydizyme™, a stand-alone human hyaluronidase drug product, in South Korea, aiming to secure the Biologics License Application (BLA) with MFDS in 2026”
Huonslab will be presenting at the company presentation session during the upcoming BIO Europe 2024 in Stockholm, Sweden.
