Zydus Lifesciences’ wholly-owned subsidiary -- Sentynl Therapeutics, Inc. (Sentynl) has received marketing authorisation from the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for NULIBRY (fosdenopterin) for Injection as the first therapy for the treatment of patients in Great Britain (GB) with Molybdenum Cofactor Deficiency (MoCD) Type A. This is an ultra-rare, life-threatening genetic disorder that often progresses rapidly in infants.

Following this decision by the UK MHRA, NULIBRY is the first and only approved therapy in GB for MoCD Type A.
