Dr Reddy's Labs inks pact with Henlius for commercialization of multiple myeloma injection HLX15 in US, Europe

Erez Israeli, Chief Executive Officer of Dr. Reddy’s, said, “We are pleased to collaborate with Henlius to make this daratumumab biosimilar available to patients in the U.S. and Europe. Over the years, we have created a portfolio of biosimilar products that are being marketed in several emerging markets. The launch of our pegfilgrastim through our collaborator in the U.S. in 2023, and bevacizumab in the United Kingdom last year marked the start of our biosimilars journey in regulated markets. Last year, we also signed a collaboration with Alvotech for the commercialization of their denosumab biosimilar in the U.S. and Europe. This latest collaboration with Henlius further progresses our regulated markets journey in biosimilars. Additionally, oncology has been a top focus therapy area for us. We look forward to leveraging our strong commercial capabilities in these markets to ensure patients receive access to best-in-class therapies and affordable treatment options.”

“This collaboration with Dr. Reddy’s on HLX15 is a significant step in our response to global health needs and improving access to advanced biologics,” said Dr. Jason Zhu, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Henlius. “Dr. Reddy’s has a long-standing dedication to oncology, driven by the purpose of ‘Good Health Can’t Wait’, and is committed to timely access to affordable and high-quality medicines, which complement Henlius’ focus on addressing unmet medical needs in research and development. We are confident that this partnership will enhance the global market competitiveness of both organizations in oncology treatment, ultimately allowing us to reach and support more patients around the world.”
