Global Oral Biologics Market: Key Developments
In January 2020, the European Medicines Agency recommended granting a marketing authorization in the European Union (EU) for oral Rybelsus (semaglutide) for the treatment of adults with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes to improve glycaemic control as an adjunct to diet and exercise. Rybelsus is the first glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) receptor agonist treatment, a class of non-insulin medicines for people with type 2 diabetes.
In June 2020, the U.S. FDA approved MYCAPSSA, the first and only oral somatostatin analogue (SSA), for the long-term maintenance treatment of acromegaly patients who had responded to and tolerated treatment with octreotide or lanreotide. The Mycapssa is manufactured by Chiasma, Inc., a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company.
In February 2022, Rani Therapeutics Holdings, Inc., a clinical-stage biotherapeutics company, announced the development of RaniPill HC, a high-capacity oral biologics device. The newly launched RaniPill HC is capable of delivering up to a 500%-plus higher drug payload than Rani’s existing oral biologic capsule.
