Fda Action Alert: Regeneron, Sanofi And Abeona

The FDA has three big decisions slated for the back half of April, two of which are for Regeneron’s blockbuster franchises.Read below for more.Regeneron, Sanofi Eye Another Expansion for DupixentFollowing an initial rejection in October 2023, Regeneron and Sanofi are again trying to expand their anti-inflammatory antibody Dupixent into chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). The FDA’s decision is due on April 18.To support their bid for label expansion, the pharma partners submitted data from the Phase III LIBERTY-CUPID clinical program. Data from Study A, released in July 2021, showed that Dupixent could nearly double itch reduction and urticaria activity scores versus antihistamines. Study B, meanwhile, found a numeric improvement in itching and hives versus antihistamines in patients refractory to omalizumab, as per a February 2022 readout, though the study did not reach statistical significance. It was terminated due to futility.These two studies formed the backbone of Dupixent’s initial failed attempt at an approval for CSU, which the FDA rebuffed due to the lack of efficacy data. In their resubmission, Regeneron and Sanofi filed additional data from a third trial, dubbed Study C, which also showed a nearly 50% drop in itch and urticaria activity.If approved, Dupixent would be the first targeted option for CSU in a decade, according to a November 2024 news release.Regeneron Proposes Longer Dosing Interval for Eylea HDIn a bid to maintain the market dominance of its blockbuster biologic Eylea, Regeneron is working to improve the product profile of the high-dose (HD) formulation of the drug

Dupixent Approved As The First-Ever Biologic Medicine In Japan For Patients With Copd

Following recent approvals in the EU, China, and the US, this approval was based on pivotal phase 3 results in adults with elevated eosinophilsApproval marks the first new treatment approach for COPD in more than a decade in Japan and the sixth approved indication for chronic diseases with underlying type 2 inflammationParis and Tarrytown, NY, March 28, 2025. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan has granted marketing and manufacturing authorization for Dupixent (dupilumab) for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults whose disease is not adequately controlled with existing therapy.The approval in Japan was based on data from the landmark BOREAS phase 3 study. The study evaluated Dupixent added to background maximal standard-of-care inhaled therapy (with nearly all patients on triple therapy or double therapy if inhaled corticosteroids were contraindicated) in adults with uncontrolled COPD and elevated blood eosinophils. In the study, Dupixent significantly reduced exacerbations and improved lung function compared to placebo. Safety results in the study were generally consistent with the known safety profile of Dupixent in its approved indications. The most commonly reported adverse event with Dupixent was injection site reaction
