CDMO ten23 health is in the process of celebrating the success of scPharmaceuticals, a pharmaceutical company headquartered in Burlington, MA USA.
scPharmaceuticals is focused on developing and commercialising products that have the potential to optimise the delivery of infused therapies, while ten23 was pivotal in supporting scPharmaceuticals’ for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of FUROSCIX (furosemide injection) with the implementation and fill/finish of the large (10 mL) volume polymer cartridges of the delivery device. FUROSCIX is the first and only FDA-approved subcutaneous loop diuretic that can be self-administered at-home.
“We are very happy to have supported scPharmaceuticals in the development of FUROSCIX which they expect to commercially launch in Q1 2023. With our unique capability and expertise in filling complex sterile drug products such as the 10 mL polymer pre-filled cartridge used in the On-Body Infusor for FUROSCIX, we provide comprehensive solutions to our partners,” said Professor Dr Hanns-Christian Mahler, CEO of ten23 health.

FUROSCIX enables subcutaneous administration at home by the patient or a caregiver with the use of the On-Body Infusor for FUROSCIX. The pre-filled cartridge is inserted into the pre-programmed single-use On-Body Infusor for FUROSCIX, attached to the abdomen and then activated with the press of a button to deliver the dose over five hours. The FUROSCIX infusor will deliver only an 80-mg dose.
