Why is afamelanotide (Melanotan One) not currently available on the market?
Afamelanotide is a photoprotective drug in a development phase and not currently available on the market. It is currently being tested for its safety and efficacy in clinical trials. In ethical pharmaceutical drug development a rigorous clinical program needs to be followed to comply with the requirements of regulators worldwide. Drug development therefore is not a speedy process. It takes time. Ensuring the safety and efficacy of afamelanotide is paramount to the program and Clinuvel is following an intensive clinical trial process in advance of pursuing regulatory approval and commercialisation to make this process as fast as possible.
