(Nasdaq: BFRI) (“Biofrontera” or the “Company”), a leader in photodynamic therapy (PDT) development and commercialization, today announced the completion of the transfer of the FDA approvals for Ameluz® and the RhodoLED® Lamp Series, including the NDA and the Investigational New Drug Application (IND), to Biofrontera. In addition, the Company has completed all necessary filings to transfer all US and some international intellectual property associated with Ameluz® and the RhodoLED® Lamp Series, including 11 granted US patents, 10 US patent applications, and 19 patent filings or registered designs outside of the US. The registration of the assignment to Biofrontera of all associated trademarks has also been initiated. These asset transfers were secured, in part, by an $11.0 million investment recently reported by the Company. With the NDA and IND transfers effective as of December 17, 2025, Biofrontera now assumes full control of the Ameluz® NDA and IND, enabling the Company to manage ongoing and future clinical development activities independently, and to take full responsibility for all aspects of manufacturing and marketing Ameluz® and the RhodoLED® lamps in the US. The patent and trademark transfers further strengthen Biofrontera’s intellectual property portfolio and market position in the US. “This achievement represents the next important milestone in the transformative arrangement we initiated in June 2025,” said Dr. Hermann Luebbert, CEO and Chairman of Biofrontera. “By consolidating control of Ameluz’s US regulatory filings and its robust patent portfolio, we are positioned to drive operational efficiencies, optimize R&amp;D expenditures, swiftly pursue new indications, and continue refining our RhodoLED® lamp platform — to meet and exceed the evolving needs of clinicians and patients.” About Biofrontera Inc.
