YAVNE, Israel, Oct. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MediWound Ltd. (Nasdaq: MDWD), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on next-generation enzymatic therapeutics for tissue repair, addresses emergency demand for NexoBrid to treat the mass of burn casualties, inflicted by the war in Israel.

MediWound remains committed to fulfilling its obligations to our global markets and is implementing measures to ensure supply continuity.

About NexoBrid

NexoBrid® (anacaulase-bcdb) is a topically administered biological product that enzymatically removes nonviable burn tissue, or eschar, in patients with deep partial and/or full-thickness thermal burns without harming viable tissue. NexoBrid is approved in over 40 countries, including in the United States, European Union and Japan, where it has been designated as an orphan biologic drug. Development of NexoBrid is supported by the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).
