Cipla has launched Leuprolide Acetate Injection Depot 22.5mg. The product was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) based on a New Drug Application (NDA) submitted under the 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway.

Leuprolide Acetate Injection Depot contains 22.5 mg of leuprolide acetate for 3-month administration given as a single dose injection.

It is supplied as lyophilized microspheres in a single dose vial as a kit with a prefilled syringe containing 2mL 0.8% mannitol solution and an easy-to-use MIXJECT transfer device for a single dose injection. It is indicated for palliative treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
