About Tyenne

Tyenne is Fresenius Kabi's tocilizumab, the first tocilizumab biosimilar approved in Europe, in September 2023. The United States approved the infusion form in March 2024 and the under-the-skin form a year later, and Canada approved it in 2024. It was the first tocilizumab biosimilar in either form to reach the US market.
