The CHMP positive opinion is expected to translate into a formal decision of approval by the European Commission in April 2025.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dyrupeg\u2122 will be available as 6 mg solution for injection in prefilled syringe and is intended for the reduction in the duration of neutropenia and the incidence of febrile neutropenia in adult patients treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy for malignancy (with the exception of chronic myeloid leukaemia and myelodysplastic syndromes).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Commenting on the update, Dr. Satakarni Makkapati, Director Aurobindo Pharma and CEO Biologics, Vaccines and Peptides said &#8220;After receiving the GMP certificate of compliance from the EMA in November, the positive opinion of Dyrupeg\u2122 from CHMP follows the marketing approval of Bevqolva\u2122 (a bevacizumab biosimilar) by UK\u2019s MHRA in December 2024, and CHMP\u2019s positive opinion of Zefylti\u2122 (a filgrastim biosimilar) in December 2024. The CHMP positive opinion of Dyrupeg\u2122 is based upon a review of evidence of analytical biosimilarity, demonstrating equivalence and no clinically meaningful differences in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity to the EU-registered reference product Neulasta\u2122. We intend to bring these treatment options to patients in Europe in the second half of 2025 and are on course to file in additional markets for approval.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Aurobindo Pharma\u2019s Vice Chairman and Managing Director Mr. K. Nithyananda Reddy said, \u201cThe positive opinion received from CHMP for Dyrupeg\u2122 furthers our commitment in developing high quality biosimilars and driving access to patients suffering from illnesses such as cancer. CuraTeQ has a broad pipeline of biosimilars across oncology and immunology segments and we are enthusiastic about the prospect of adding these over time to Aurobindo\u2019s commercial portfolio in global markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About CuraTeQ:<\/strong> CuraTeQ Biologics Private Limited (CuraTeQ), a subsidiary of Aurobindo Pharma Limited, is a global<br \/>\nbiopharmaceutical company headquartered in Hyderabad, India.
