Recombinant proteinexperimental

Sprifermin is a recombinant human fibroblast growth factor 18 (rhFGF18) analog, originally developed by Merck, and now being further developed by TrialSpark’s subsidiary, High Line Bio, for the treatment of osteoarthritis. FGF18 and sprifermin act via the Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR) family, with preferential activity via FGFR3c. — Wikipedia
