Swedish Orphan Biovitrum AB: Sobi® and Enable Injections announce agreement to develop and distribute Aspaveli® in combination with enFuse® in Sobi territories

The enFuse Injector, to be produced by Enable and distributed by Sobi, is designed to streamline and improve patients' self-administration experience with minimal disruption to their daily lives via the use of enFuse technology. This allows wearable, hidden needle drug delivery through a simple injection under the skin.

"We are dedicated to advancing innovative solutions for the treatment of rare diseases, and this agreement with Enable Injections marks an important step in fulfilling that commitment," said

Lydia Abad-Franch, MD, Head of R&D, Medical Affairs, and Chief Medical Officer at Sobi. "We believe the agreement with Enable will potentially expand patient choice, enhance comfort and support adherence, with the ultimate aim of better health outcomes. By continually improving the patient experience, we are working to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve."

"The future availability of Aspaveli with Enable Injections' enFuse technology, could offer more patients the opportunity to access a simplified treatment experience that allows for greater confidence and mobility," said Michael D. Hooven, Enable Injections' Chairman and CEO. "Enable was founded on the goal of redefining drug delivery for the benefit of patients, and our partnership with Sobi is helping us achieve that. Following regulatory approvals, enFuse will potentially be the first subcutaneous drug delivery device of its kind outside of the U.S. and we look forward to improving the treatment experience of even more patients as we establish additional enFuse partnerships."
