Genexine, a listed clinical-stage biopharmaceutical corporation based in Korea that is dedicated to discovering and developing innovative biologics for addressing unmet medical demands, shared optimistic primary results today from the diverse-center, randomized, open-label, active-controlled key phase 3 research (CTJ101PGHD301) happening in China, assessing the efficacy and security of eftansomatropin alfa (an exclusive long-acting growth hormone by Genexine, also referred to as GX-H9) in children suffering from growth hormone deficiency.

I-Mab, the collaborator of Genexine in China, has successfully completed a study which showed that eftansomatropin alfa effectively met the set criterion of yearly height growth rate  at the end of a year and proved it to be as efficient as Norditropin®. Eftansomatropin alfa was applied through a weekly injection, contrary to the everyday dosage of Norditropin®. The typical AHV came to 10.76 (cm/year) with eftansomatropin alfa as opposed to 10.28 (cm/year) with Norditropin®, indicating a discrepancy of 0.47 [95% CI -0.06,1.00]. The p-value of non-inferiority was less than 0.0001. Eftansomatropin alfa showed good tolerability with no drug discontinuation reports due to associated adverse effects. Its safety shared similarity with that of Norditropin®. The organization intends to make a BLA submission in China in 2024.

Genexine's CEO and President, Neil Warma, expressed his satisfaction after the results of this registration trial were out, which revealed safety and efficiency of this potential superior medication for treating growth hormone deficiency in children. Warma said, "Consider this as a significant step for Genexine as it shows our capacity to introduce our innovative products to the market as well as the worth of our exclusive long-acting hyFc®platform. We look forward to filing the BLA submission in 2024 and bringing this product to the Chinese market and patients. We persist in our endeavors to bring our leading commodities to several important markets."

About long-acting recombinant human growth hormone or Eftansomatropin alfa

GX-H9 was formulated using Genexine's hyFc®platform, aiming to treat growth hormone deficiency  and it is at present being assessed in a phase 3 registration trial in China for treating pediatric GHD, with an expected BLA submission in 2024. GX-H9 is differentiated by its prolonged half-life which necessitates significantly fewer injections besides its superior safety profile. Pediatric patient compliance has notably improved. GX-H9 is co-developed through a strategic partnership with Handok and I-Mab for development in the wider China region. I-Mab has partnered with Jumpcan, looking ahead to launch and commercialize eftansomatropin alfa in China.
