This launch comes immediately after the expiry of exclusivity rights for the reference molecule, creating competition and potentially broadening patient access in a market estimated at €2.4 billion. Uzpruvo is indicated for Crohn's disease, psoriatic arthritis, and plaque psoriasis in adults and children from 6 years old.

Uzpruvo offers a pre-filled syringe with a thinner needle and is latex-free. It's the second immunology biosimilar brought to market through the STADA-Alvotech partnership, following the 2022 launch of Hukyndra (adalimumab). The biosimilar is developed, manufactured, and packaged entirely within Europe, with a 36-month shelf life.

Alvotech regains commercial rights to AVT06, a proposed Eylea® biosimilar. This expansion builds on their successful collaboration, which has already launched Hukyndra®, a high-concentration Humira® biosimilar, in Europe.
