The US is the world’s largest immunoglobin market with a value of around 16 trillion won ($11.6 billion).

The initial shipment will reach patients through specialty pharmacies across the US by mid-July.

GC Biopharma has been actively preparing for its US launch.

It secured a key partnership on July 1 with a major US Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) to list Alyglo covered on their formularies (lists of approved drugs).

The company signed contracts with reputable specialty pharmacies and distributors to build a strong distribution network.

The company aims to $50 million in Alyglo sales this year and projects annual growth to capture a market share in the US.
