IB1001 is a recombinant factor IX (FIX) product, which helps prevent bleeding in individuals with hemophilia B.

The MAA comprises the data from the clinical program for IB1001, which was conducted by Inspiration in the US, Europe, Israel and India, to test its efficacy.

Inspiration and its partner Ipsen intend to develop and commercialize a range of hemophilia products, including Inspiration inlicensing OBI-1 from Ipsen, as well as Ipsen providing Inspiration with funding.
