Theratechnologies Announces Resumed Production of EGRIFTA SV®
03 Décembre 2024 - 10:30PM
Theratechnologies Inc. (“Theratechnologies” or the “Company”) (TSX:
TH) (NASDAQ: THTX), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the
development and commercialization of innovative therapies, today
announced that the production of EGRIFTA SV® has resumed following
a voluntary shutdown of the Company’s contract manufacturer’s
facility to address observations from an inspection by the US Food
and Drug Administration (FDA).
One newly manufactured batch of EGRIFTA
SV® has completed standard quality control and will be
available for release to the market upon approval from the FDA of a
Prior Approval Supplement, which the Company is expected to file
around mid-December 2024. The manufacturing of two additional
batches of EGRIFTA SV® is currently underway. The Company
implemented measures to carefully manage existing inventory levels
of EGRIFTA SV® to meet patient demand until mid-January
2025.
Theratechnologies continues to collaborate
closely with the relevant divisions of the FDA and other key
stakeholders to avoid a shortage at the patient level in 2025.
The Company will update the market on any
further material developments.
EGRIFTA SV® is distributed in the United States
only.
