The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc and Sanofi SA’s drug Dupixent to treat nasal polyps, the companies said on Wednesday.
The new approval, which could significantly boost annual sales, is for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
The FDA first approved Dupiexent in 2017 for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, or eczema and in 2018 it won U.S. approval to treat moderate-to-severe asthma as well.
