Sanofi wins Japanese approval for diabetes drug Lyxumia
Japanese authorities have licensed the use of Sanofi's new treatment for type 2 diabetes Lyxumia (lixisenatide). The drug is a key part of Sanofi's diabetes portfolio and complements its basal insulin brand Lantus (insulin glargine), which brought in €5bn last year to make it the company's biggest selling product.
