Biocon's biologics arm gets Health Canada approval for monoclonal antibody drug Yesintek

YESINTEK and YESINTEK I.V. are indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adult patients and in pediatric patients (6-17 years of age), active psoriatic arthritis in adults, moderately to severely active Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis in adults'a range of debilitating autoimmune conditions that affect thousands of Canadians.

Shreehas Tambe, CEO & managing director, Biocon Biologics, said: Health Canada's approval of Yesintek marks a significant milestone in our mission to expand global access to high-quality biosimilars.

Building on our successful U.S. launch, this approval strengthens our presence in North America and enhances our immunology portfolio with a more affordable treatment option for Canadian patients living with chronic autoimmune conditions.

Biocon is a global biopharma company dedicated to improving affordable access to therapies for chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and autoimmune diseases.
