1. Hengrui Pharmaceutical successfully obtained generic drug approval for bupivacaine liposomal injection
Recently, a news from Hengrui Pharmaceutical has caused a heated discussion in the pharmaceutical industry, and Hengrui Pharmaceutical has successfully obtained the generic drug application of bupivacaine liposome injection approved by the US FDA, becoming the first manufacturer to obtain the approval of generic drugs of this variety in the United States.
Bupivacaine liposomal injection is a local anesthetic drug that is mainly used for analgesic purposes in surgery and obstetric labor pain. Compared with the traditional bupivacaine injection, bupivacaine liposomal injection adopts a polycystic liposomal drug delivery system, which can slowly release the drug to the painful site, thereby prolonging the drug effect time, improving the utilization rate of the drug, and reducing the toxic side effects of the drug.
Due to its good sustained-release effect, bupivacaine liposomal injection has received extensive attention and application in clinical practice, and has also become the clinical first choice of major medical institutions. Due to the complexity of its production process and the existence of technical barriers, the original drug company has monopolized the production and sales of the product, resulting in the supply in the market cannot meet the actual demand, and patients have been in a state of drug shortage for a long time.
In order to solve the problem of drug shortage of bupivacaine liposome injection, pharmaceutical companies in various countries have increased the research and development and production of generic drugs for this product, hoping to enrich the market supply through generic drugs, reduce drug costs, and allow more patients to obtain effective treatment. The successful approval of Hengrui Pharmaceutical for generic drugs of bupivacaine liposome injection undoubtedly provides an important guarantee for the solution of the problem of drug shortage, and also plays a positive role in promoting the safety and effect of drug use for patients.
The reason why Hengrui Pharmaceutical was able to successfully obtain the approval of generic drugs of this variety is inseparable from its deep accumulation and breakthrough innovation in polycystic liposome technology. Polycystic liposome technology is a very cutting-edge and complex technology, with many process flows and influencing variables, which requires enterprises to have very strong R&D strength and technological innovation capabilities, as well as mature commercial production equipment to support its large-scale production.
Domestic pharmaceutical companies have always had certain shortcomings in polycystic liposome technology, which cannot meet the needs of their commercial production, which also brings great challenges to the R&D and production of generic drugs. In the face of various difficulties and challenges, Hengrui Pharmaceutical did not flinch, but through unremitting efforts and exploration, finally achieved a breakthrough in polycystic liposome technology, successfully developed polycystic liposome drugs that meet international standards, and successfully passed the strict review of the US FDA.
The successful case of Hengrui Pharmaceutical has set a good example for other domestic pharmaceutical companies, and has also injected strong confidence and impetus into the development of the domestic pharmaceutical industry. On the road of future development, domestic pharmaceutical companies should increase investment in the research and development of cutting-edge technologies and enhance their own innovation capabilities and core competitiveness, so as to be invincible in the fierce market competition and achieve sustainable development.
2. Hengrui Pharmaceutical actively promotes the internationalization strategy of generic drugs
In addition to making breakthroughs in polycystic liposome technology, Hengrui Pharmaceutical has also successfully opened the overseas market for bupivacaine liposome injection by virtue of its active internationalization strategy, providing important support for its approval of generic drugs in the United States.
