- Approval was based on a next-generation propellant clinical development program assessing Trixeo + HFO-1234ze(E) vs Trixeo + HFA-134a, which showed bioequivalence between the two
- Additionally, AstraZeneca plans to transition its pMDI portfolio to near-zero GWP propellants by 2030 as part of its Ambition Zero Carbon strategy, starting with Trixeo in the UK in the coming mos.
