Stallergenes Greer able to resume manufacturing at Antony plant
Biopharma company Stallergenes Greer (Euronext Paris: STAGR), which specializes in treatments for respiratory allergies, yesterday announced that the manufacturing and distribution of immunotherapies Oralair, Actair and Alyostal venom is starting after a temporary suspension at its Stallergenes SAS plant in Antony, France.
The company was forced to shut down its site and recall every product released since August 13 (The Pharma Letter December 15, 2015). The situation was caused by technical problems which have plagued the firm since it set up a new IT system at its allergy immunotherapy manufacturing plant in Antony. These operational disruptions have now been satisfactorily addressed, the company noted.
The suspension resulted in a shortage of supply for many doctors and allergy immunotherapy patients in France, and is likely to have benefitted rivals such as Denmark’s ALK-Abello. Just last week, a Stallergenes spokesperson told The Pharma Letter that it was progressing in talks with the French health authority with a view to resuming operations as soon as possible (TPL January 27).
