Biocon Biologics, subsidiary of Biocon Ltd, has secured full and exclusive global rights for Hulio (biosimilar Adalimumab) from Fujifilm Kyowa Kirin Biologics (FKB). The new agreement supersedes the existing deal under which Biocon only had commercialization rights. Now Biocon will have end-to-end responsibility for manufacturing and commercialization. Biocon will pay a technology license fee and royalties on sales to FKB, while FKB will offset certain development costs and participate in further development. Commercial production at Biocon facilities will start after technology transfer and regulatory approvals. Adalimumab is one of three immunology biosimilars in Biocon's portfolio.
Gives Biocon Biologics end-to-end control over Hulio, improving manufacturing flexibility and cost efficiency for this key immunology biosimilar.
