Nepidermin (INN proposed),[2] also known as recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF), is a recombinant form of human epidermal growth factor (EGF) and a cicatrizant (a drug that promotes wound healing through formation of scar tissue). As a recombinant form of EGF, nepidermin is an agonist of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and is the first EGFR agonist to be marketed.[3][4] It was developed by Cuban Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (CIBG), and has been marketed by Heber Biotech as an intralesional injection for diabetic foot ulcer under the trade name Heberprot-P since 2006.[5][6] As of 2016, Heberprot-P had been marketed in 23 countries,[7] but remains unavailable in the United States. In 2015, preparations were made to conduct the Phase III trials required for FDA approval,[8][9] however as of 2023 developments in U.S.-Cuba relations have stymied importation of the drug from Cuba.

Various forms of rhEGF are marketed for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers, wounds, and alopecia (hair loss) in Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, and China.[1][3][4]

Production

[edit | edit source]

According to Heber Biotech, nepidermin is made by insering the 53-amino acid human EGF sequence into yeast.[10] A 1991 paper from Cuba seems to describe its production in more detail.[11] An improved process was described in 2009.[12]

Other rhEGFs

[edit | edit source]

Several other products containing recombinant human EGF have been marketed. The potencies of these products can differ by the expression system used, despite all intending to match the structure of human EGF.[13]

Instead of measuring by mass, the international unit system from the World Health Organization provides a way to describe the potency-adjusted amount of rhEGF.[14][15] However, the WHO does not prescribe a specific way of measuring the potency. rhEGF bioassay remains a field in active development.[16]
