Orion Corporation is developing a budesonide-formoterol formulation combining budesonide as an anti-inflammatory agent and formoterol as a long-acting bronchodilator to expand the range of the inhalable Easyhaler® drug product family for treatment of asthma and COPD.
Based on the favourable pharmacokinetic study results of this Easyhaler-developement programme Orion is planning to apply for a marketing authorisation for the combined budesonide-formoterol formulation. Orion currently estimates that the marketing authorisation application would be submitted in Europe during the first half of 2013.
