20 July 2016 - Bristol-Myers Squibb announced today the commercial launch of the Orencia ClickJect Autoinjector, a new self-administered autoinjector for adults with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis.
The Orencia ClickJect delivers 125 mg of subcutaneous (SC) Orencia with push button operation and injection confirmation, which may reduce the possibility of user errors. The Orencia ClickJect has an ergonomic design and non-slip grip that may allow for control by dexterity-compromised patients. Orencia is the only rheumatoid arthritis biologic that offers three administration options: IV infusion, prefilled syringe and Autoinjector.
