Biogen Korea's Spinraza remains the No. 1 drug for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in the KRW 80 billion market.

However, its performance has been somewhat sluggish due to the launch of competitors such as Roche Korea¡¯s Evrysdi and Novartis¡¯s Zolgensma.

In terms of drug distribution performance, Spinraza's sales in Q1 of this year were KRW 17.7 billion, 9 to 14 times higher than that of Zolgensma (KRW 1.8 billion) and Evrysdi (KRW 1.2 billion).

Sales of Spinraza (nusinersen sodium) were in the range of KRW 72.2 billion, KRW 61.2 billion, KRW 62.3 billion, and KRW 58.9 billion, in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively.
