Ahmedabad: Syna Therapeutics, a joint venture of Reig Jofre and Leanbio, has signed a global rights licensing deal with Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd. to commercialise its biosimilar drug LB-0702.
Under the terms of the agreement, Intas has been granted exclusive licensing rights to commercialize LB-0702 worldwide. Syna will develop and manufacture LB-0702 and supply the product to Intas and its worldwide affiliates.
Syna will begin clinical trials for LB-0702 in 2023 with support from its partners, Leanbio and Reig Jofre. The company will utilise the technology platforms of Leanbio coupled with the technology production expertise of Reig Jofre at its new manufacturing plant in Barcelona, which is purposed for sterile injectables and lyophilised biopharmaceutical products.
