Formycon and OneSource Specialty Pharma Announce Strategic Manufacturing Partnership for Biosimilars

Formycon AG (FSE: FYB, Prime Standard) and OneSource Specialty Pharma Limited (BSE: 544292, NSE: ONESOURCE) announced a strategic manufacturing partnership for biosimilars on July 14, 2026. Under the agreement, OneSource will serve as a strategic manufacturing partner for Formycon, providing integrated Drug Substance and Drug Product manufacturing from its biologics facility in Bangalore, India. The collaboration combines Formycon’s biosimilar development expertise with OneSource’s end-to-end biologics manufacturing capabilities to support Formycon’s biosimilar programs for global markets.

Dr. Stefan Glombitza, CEO of Formycon AG, stated: “Reliable, scalable and cost-efficient manufacturing is a cornerstone of our FYB4Growth strategy. By adding OneSource to our network of strategic manufacturing partners, we are further strengthening our supply capabilities with a partner that meets our unwavering commitment to high standards of quality, operational excellence and cost-efficiency. Together, we aim to broaden sustainable global access to life-changing biosimilar therapies.”

Neeraj Sharma, Managing Director & CEO of OneSource Specialty Pharma, commented: “We are delighted to partner with Formycon, one of the world’s leading biosimilar developers with a proven track record of bringing high-quality biosimilars to global markets. This partnership brings together Formycon’s development expertise and OneSource’s integrated manufacturing capabilities to expand access to high-quality, affordable biologics for patients worldwide. It also reinforces our belief that India is uniquely positioned to serve as a global hub for the development and manufacturing of world-class biologics.”

The partnership reflects both companies' commitment to advancing global access to biosimilars through reliable, high-quality, and scalable manufacturing. Achieving this requires a sustainable, cost-effective manufacturing model, which OneSource is positioned to deliver. Formycon brings a strong track record in biosimilar development and commercialization, supported by an established portfolio and a robust pipeline. OneSource complements this with an integrated biologics platform spanning cell line development through commercial fill-finish, five manufacturing facilities approved by leading global regulatory authorities including the US FDA and EMA, and extensive expertise across biologics, sterile injectables, and drug-device combinations.

Formycon, headquartered in Munich and listed in the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, is a leading independent developer of high-quality biosimilars. The company covers the entire value chain from candidate selection to market-ready product delivery. With FYB201/ranibizumab, FYB202/ustekinumab, and FYB203/aflibercept already on the market, and four pipeline candidates including FYB206/pembrolizumab and FYB208/dupilumab in development, Formycon is making an important contribution to providing patients with access to highly effective and affordable medicines.
