ZUG, SWITZERLAND -- Galderma announced that the Swedish Medical Products Agency (Läkemedelsverket) issued key manufacturing license updates that will allow the company to pursue its ambitious growth and innovation roadmap.

The license updates, issued following the agency’s good manufacturing practices (GMP) inspection of Galderma’s center of excellence in Uppsala, Sweden, enable Galderma to manufacture and perform bioanalytical testing on RelabotulinumtoxinA (QM1114). One of Galderma’s key innovation pipeline assets in Injectable Aesthetics, RelabotulinumtoxinA is a next-generation liquid neuromodulator in Injectable Aesthetics developed using Galderma’s proprietary PEARL™ technology. This technology preserves the molecule’s integrity, resulting in a highly active, complex-free botulinum toxin A.

“Our commitment to leading innovation in dermatology is reflected in our high-performance operations. These new license updates granted by the Swedish authorities reflect Galderma’s skills and the capacities we are building to support our rapid growth trajectory. As we work to extend our category leadership globally, these new capabilities will increase Galderma’s autonomy to manufacture and commercialize the next generation of scientifically differentiated innovations in dermatology.”
ADRIAN MURPHY HEAD OF GLOBAL OPERATIONS GALDERMA

Galderma’s center of excellence in Uppsala is one of the company’s four state-of-the-art manufacturing and R&D facilities around the world.
