The World’s First-in-Class Intrauterine Drug-Eluting System <\/p>\n
SHANGHAI<\/span><\/span>, Aug. 23, 2024<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Corina Intrauterine Drug-Eluting System\u00a0(“Corina”), developed by Yipurun (Shanghai<\/span>) Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (“YPR”), has received approval in China<\/span> (G.X.Z.Z. 20243181461) for use in patients with moderate-to-severe intrauterine adhesions (IUA)\u00a0who undergo transcervical resection of adhesions (TCRA). The approval for this indication is based on a randomized controlled clinical trial that demonstrated Corina’s superior\u00a0efficacy compared to the standard-of-care. Corina is a first-in-class treatment focused on promoting female reproductive health through the prevention of intrauterine re-adhesion risk post TCRA, and the improvement of endometrial growth.<\/p>\n Intrauterine adhesions (IUA) are the formation of scar tissues in the endometrial cavity as a result of damages to the endometrial basal layer of the uterus, which leads to the partial or complete occlusion of the cervical canal and uterine cavity. Clinically, IUA can cause a range of symptoms such as reduced menstrual flow, amenorrhea, infertility and recurrent miscarriage\u00a0\u2013 thereby\u00a0posing a serious threat to the reproductive health of women of childbearing age. Currently, the incidence rate of IUA in China<\/span> remains high, and continues to grow due to an increased number of intrauterine interventions. Research in this field show the incidence rate of IUA in China<\/span> to be as high as 25% in women who have had prior abortion\u00a0or curettage procedures [1]\u00a0\u2014 this has become a key driver of reduced menstrual flow and secondary infertility\u00a0in women of childbearing age.\u00a0As a standard surgical procedure to treat\u00a0IUA, TCRA separates the adherent tissues and restores the anatomical shape of the uterine cavity. Surveys show\u00a01.6 to 1.8 million patients in China<\/span> undergo\u00a0TCRA every year, but the recurrence rate of IUA after surgery is still as high as 62.5%\u00a0[2]; and the pregnancy success rate of patients after TCRA surgery is only 22.5%~33.3%\u00a0[3-4].\u00a0Over the years, a variety of adjuvant therapies, such as uterine cavity isolation barriers and hormonal treatments, have emerged with limited efficacy.<\/p>\n Corina is an innovative drug-device-combination therapy made from non-degradable, medical grade material, carrying the active ingredient estradiol. Designed to conform to the shape of the female uterus, Corina acts as a physical barrier upon insertion,\u00a0and enables targeted delivery of estradiol to the endometrium. With YPR’s proprietary controlled-release technology, Corina can continuously release\u00a0the active substance up to 60 days post procedure\u00a0to promote endometrium growth.<\/p>\n <\/a> The registration study results of Corina\u00a0have demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in intrauterine adhesion at 60 days post procedure, compared to standard-of-care therapy. Corina has also shown meaningful improvement in endometrial thickness from baseline at 60 days post procedure, compared to standard-of-care therapy.<\/p>\n <\/a> About Puyi Biotech<\/p>\n Located in the Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park in Shanghai,\u00a0Yipurun (Shanghai<\/span>) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
