Australia-headquartered Telix Pharmaceuticals has established Telix Manufacturing Solutions (TMS) in Yokohama, Japan. Telix's first cyclotron facility in the Asia Pacific region represents a significant milestone in the Company's global manufacturing strategy.
Taking over the lease and operational management of this facility will provide greater control over existing clinical supply with the possibility to expand production to other Telix investigational and future commercial products in the region, including Illuccix® (TLX591-CDx, 68Ga-PSMA-11) and Pixclara® (TLX101-CDx, 18F-floretyrosine) for Greater Tokyo, and TLX591 (177Lu rosopatamab tetraxetan) for the Asia Pacific region.
Further, the company plans to install Telix's ARTMS QUANTM Irradiation System® (QIS®) cyclotron technology, which it believes will facilitate standardised, high-efficiency and cost-effective production of commercially important medical isotopes.
