Theratechnologies to move forward with development of new single vial formulation for Egrifta

The introduction of a single vial presentation was part of commitments required by the FDA when it approved Egrifta (Tesamorelin for Injection).

The F4 formulation has previously been used by Theratechnologies in a Phase II program. It will require a bioequivalence program before being submitted to the FDA for the currently approved indication for Egrifta. Presented in a single daily vial, the F4 formulation has the advantage of being four times more concentrated thus significantly reducing the volume of administration. It is also stable at room temperature which is a significant improvement as refrigeration by pharmacies and patients would no longer be required. This program will be initiated in the coming weeks.
