The existing approved versions of JamtekiTM include a 45mg/0.5mL syringe prefilled with a passive safety mechanism for injecting subcutaneously, and a 90mg/mL PFS-SD. This is the second biosimilar to be given marketing approval and was created through a unique commercialization partnership between Alvotech and JAMP Pharma. Previously, the collaborators introduced Simlandi®, a biosimilar for Humira® (adalimumab).

"Our launch of JamtekiTM aligns perfectly with our existing biosimilar products and highlights JAMP Pharma's commitment to advancing in this market sector," stated JAMP Pharma's CEO and President, Louis Pilon. "Alvotech, with its innovative and strategic methodologies, allows Canadian patients to access ustekinumab at a reduced price. Moreover, our Patient Support Program – JAMP CareTM will provide patients with expert guidance for a smooth transition into using the biosimilar."

"We're delighted about gaining marketing approval for our second biosimilar in Canada through our collaboration with JAMP Pharma," commented Robert Wessman, CEO and Chairman of Alvotech. "A high demand for biosimilars in Canada suggests the need for affordable, yet high-quality biologics within the Canadian market. This represents a significant milestone for us and aligns with our shared goal of offering wider access to cost-effective healthcare solutions."

In January 2022, JAMP Pharma and Alvotech established their special partnership for biosimilar commercialization in Canada, broadening the agreement in October 2022. Simlandi® (adalimumab), which was introduced in Canada in April 2022, as well as JamtekiTM (ustekinumab), are part of this collaboration. Additionally, four biosimilar products that are presently undergoing clinical trials and two that are in the pre-clinical trial phase are also included in the partnership.
