In
July 2025 , the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) of theUnited Kingdom (UK ) granted marketing authorization for EKTERLY (sebetralstat). EKTERLY also met the requirements of the MHRA Orphan Designation criteria and will be added to theOrphan Register held by the MHRA, allowing it to benefit from up to 10 years of market exclusivity. -
Also in July, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the
European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion recommending marketing authorization for sebetralstat. TheEuropean Commission (EC) final decision is expected inOctober 2025 . - Additionally, the Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products (COMP) of the EMA confirmed maintenance of orphan designation for sebetralstat. The decision was based on a finding of comparable efficacy to injectable on-demand treatments with a major contribution to patient care by reducing the HAE attack morbidity. This designation secures important regulatory and financial benefits, including 10 years of EU market exclusivity, making sebetralstat one of only two HAE medicines to retain orphan status and underscoring its unique position within the HAE treatment landscape.
