Fresenius, via its operating company Fresenius Kabi, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance to its Adaptive Nomogram, an alternate algorithm that will be available in the Aurora Xi Plasmapheresis System.
The Adaptive Nomogram enables an average 11.6% increase in plasma collection per donation while maintaining safe and effective operation. This enhanced capability will allow plasma centers to improve collection efficiency. Plasma-derived therapies are essential for treating a wide range of conditions, including immune deficiencies, bleeding disorders, and neurological diseases. By increasing plasma collection efficiency, Fresenius Kabi reinforces its commitment to improving access to these critical therapies. The clearance received for the Adaptive Nomogram is another milestone in line with #FutureFresenius.

- Fresenius, through its operating company Fresenius Kabi, is broadening its growing biopharma portfolio through a new licensing agreement with South Korea’s SamChunDang Pharm (SCD).
- Under the agreement, Fresenius Kabi will exclusively commercialize SCD’s aflibercept biosimilar candidate in the U.S. and several countries in Latin America.
- Aflibercept is used to treat a range of ophthalmic disorders, including wet age-related macular degeneration.
Under the agreement, Fresenius Kabi will commercialize the proposed aflibercept biosimilar, a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) Fc fusion protein, in the US, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, Colombia, and Mexico after successful approval by respective health agencies. SCD is responsible for the development, manufacturing, and supply of the drug.
Fresenius Kabi is an operating company of Fresenius that specializes in (bio)pharmaceuticals, medical technologies, and nutrition products for critical and chronic conditions.
SCD is based in South Korea and specializes in developing generics and biosimilars for global markets.
Aflibercept is a proposed biosimilar referencing Eylea®, an anti-VEGF for the treatment of ophthalmic conditions such as wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), macular edema following retinal vein occlusion (RVO), diabetic macular edema (DME), and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Eylea is commercialized by Regeneron in the US and by Bayer in other countries.
“With the commercialization of the aflibercept biosimilar, we are broadening our product portfolio with a treatment option for ophthalmic diseases. In alignment with our #FutureFresenius strategy, this marks another significant milestone for Fresenius Kabi in fulfilling our strategic objective of enhancing access to biosimilars for patients globally,” said Dr. Sang-Jin Pak, Fresenius Kabi’s President of Business Unit Biopharma.
"We are thrilled to have finalized this agreement and are eager to move forward with the commercialization of our aflibercept biosimilar candidate upon approval. The combination of SCD’s specialized expertise in ophthalmology and Fresenius Kabi’s global commercial strength creates a robust foundation to support our shared objective of improving patient access to more affordable treatment options in ophthalmology," says Mr. Chun In Seok, Chief Executive Officer at SCD.
