Seikagaku and partner Ono Pharmaceutical commenced launch of JOYCLU® 30mg Intra-articular Injection, a joint function improvement agent, for which Seikagaku
received manufacturing and marketing approval in Japan in 1Q21.
JOYCLU combines hyaluronic acid and an anti-inflammatory drug, chemically bound using Seikagaku’s proprietary technology. It is designed to release diclofenac by
hydrolysis in the joint, and is approved to treat osteoarthritis of the knee and hip via single injection once every four weeks.
Further, since JOYCLU is administered directly into the joint cavity as an injection, systemic exposure to diclofenac is low, and the risk of systemic adverse drug reaction is considered to be low.
