Bioventus Reaches Milestone with 2 Million DUROLANE® Treatments Worldwide
22.9.2020 17:30:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Bioventus, a global leader in Innovations For Active Healing, is celebrating a milestone and recognizing more than 2 million treatments worldwide with DUROLANE, its single-injection, hyaluronic acid (HA) product used in the treatment of pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA). DUROLANE is the original single injection hyaluronic acid therapy, has helped patients in nearly 30 countries and is a trusted therapy for clinicians in the management of OA.
Proven safe and effective, DUROLANE has more clinical studies than any other US single-injection HA, and has also been proven to provide greater reduction in OA knee pain versus Synvisc-One®.1,2 It has longer lasting pain relief versus a steroid injection, is safe and repeated use of DUROLANE does not increase the incidence of adverse events.3,4
DUROLANE is available in its original 3ml syringe for treatment of large joints and in a 1ml syringe, known as DUROLANE SJ, to enable treatment of small joints.* Both are produced using a natural, safe and proven technology called NASHA ® . This process yields a high molecular weight stabilized HA, which is a naturally occurring molecule that provides lubrication and cushioning in a normal joint.
“The US launch of DUROLANE in 2018 boosted our growth to more than 2 million treatments and we are very proud of this milestone. Still, there are many more patients to reach,” said John Nosenzo, Chief Commercial Officer, Bioventus. “In the US, more than 14 million people are afflicted with knee OA and osteoarthritis overall affects more than 240 million globally.5,6 Returning people to active lifestyles is our commitment to the market and we are pleased that DUROLANE is serving the needs of clinicians and the OA patients they treat.”
