Commercialization by Padagis will commence in December 2023.
Stijn Van Rompay, Chief Executive Officer of Hyloris,
commented: “This is the second product approval of the
year in the U.S. supported by Hyloris, following our recent success
with Maxigesic® IV. We are excited to launch, with Padagis, the
first generic version of Condylox® Gel in the US. The availability
of the generic Condylox® Gel reinforces Hyloris' mission to make a
meaningful difference in the lives of patients by delivering
innovative and accessible pharmaceutical solutions. The company
remains focused on expanding its portfolio to address unmet medical
needs and contribute to a more sustainable healthcare system.”
About genital and perianal warts
Genital and perianal warts are caused by certain types of the
Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), the most common sexually transmitted
disease. Genital HPV infections have an estimated prevalence of 10%
to 20% and remain mostly asymptomatic. Around 1% of the sexually
active population in the U.S. presents with the most visible
manifestation of genital HPV infections, genital or perianal
warts1. Patients affected by genital warts can experience itching,
bleeding and mucus discharge.
A vaccine for HPV exists, but a cure does not2.
About HylorisHyloris is a specialty biopharma
company focused on innovating, reinventing, and optimizing existing
medications to address important healthcare needs and deliver
relevant improvements for patients, healthcare professionals and
payors. Hyloris has built a broad, patented portfolio of 16
reformulated and repurposed value-added medicines that have the
potential to offer significant advantages over available
alternatives. Outside of its core strategic focus, the Company also
has 1 approved high barrier generics product launched in the U.S.
and 2 high barrier generic products in development. Two products
are currently in initial phases of commercialization with partners:
Sotalol IV for the treatment of atrial fibrillation, and Maxigesic®
IV, a non-opioid post-operative pain treatment. The Company’s
development strategy primarily focuses on the FDA’s 505(b)2
regulatory pathway, which is specifically designed for
pharmaceuticals for which safety and efficacy of the molecule have
already been established. This pathway can reduce the clinical
burden required to bring a product to market, and significantly
shorten the development timelines and reduce costs and risks.
