FDA Approves Biocon’s Denosumab Biosimilars Bosaya™ and Aukelso™

Sep 17, 2025

On 17 September 2025, Biocon Biologics announced that it received FDA approval for denosumab products Bosaya™ and Aukelso™, biosimilars to Amgen’s Prolia® and Xgeva®, respectively.  The FDA granted provisional interchangeability designation for Bosaya™ and Aukelso™ for all approved indications.

Biocon’s denosumab biosimilars are the sixth pair to be approved in the US, following Sandoz’s Jubbonti® and Wyost® (approved March 2024, launched June 2025), Samsung Bioepis’ Obodence™ and Xbryk™ (approved February 2025, not yet launched), Celltrion’s Stoboclo® and Osenvelt® (approved March 2025, launched July 2025), Fresenius Kabi’s Conexxence® and Bomyntra® (approved March 2025, launched July 2025), and Shanghai Henlius/Organon’s Bildyos® and Bilprevda® (approved September 2025, not yet launched).

In June 2025, Amgen sued Henlius and Organon in the US in relation to their denosumab biosimilars, alleging infringement of 26 US patents covering denosumab, pharmaceutical compositions of denosumab, methods of manufacturing therapeutic proteins, like denosumab, and denosumab products.  Amgen also has pending BPCIA denosumab litigation against Hikma/Gedeon Richter and Biocon.  On 16 July 2025, BPCIA litigation involving Accord/Intas and Amgen concluded following a settlement between the parties permitting Accord/Intas to launch its denosumab biosimilars in the US after 1 October 2025.
