Insulin Aspart-szjj: An Insulin Aspart Biosimilar

摘要

Insulin aspart-szjj (MERILOG) is a biosimilar of the reference rapid-acting insulin analog, insulin aspart, and is approved for the same indication as reference insulin aspart: to improve glycemic control in adult and pediatric patients with diabetes mellitus. The physicochemical characteristics of insulin aspart-szjj were similar to reference insulin aspart, and the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic equivalence of the agents has been shown in patients with type 1 diabetes. Insulin aspart-szjj demonstrated clinical efficacy similar to that of reference insulin aspart in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and was generally well tolerated in this population. The tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity profiles of insulin aspart-szjj were similar to those of reference insulin aspart. The role of insulin aspart in the management of diabetes mellitus is well established, and insulin aspart-szjj provides an effective biosimilar alternative for patients with diabetes mellitus requiring reference insulin aspart.
