HekaBio K.K. is a biopharma and MedTech platform in Japan. It has formed a strategic partnership with Alfresa Holdings Corporation, a top pharmaceutical wholesaler in Japan. As part of the agreement, Alfresa Holdings has also made a capital investment in HekaBio. The partnership aims to speed up the launch of new medical products in Japan.
Addressing a Critical Gap
Japan has recently launched policy reforms. These reforms aim to close the access gap. This gap was caused by the slow entry of globally approved therapies into the local market. HekaBio is a key player in bringing advanced pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and regenerative medicine products to Japan and the Asia-Pacific region.
HekaBio has a strong global network and a unique partnership model. Each year, we evaluate over 200 potential assets in areas like oncology, cardiology, and CNS disorders. The company supports the entire commercialization process. This includes licensing, regulatory development, manufacturing, and sales.

Looking Ahead
HekaBio and Alfresa Holdings Corporation want to speed up access to high-impact therapies in Japan. This will expand treatment options for patients. The collaboration will explore smart ways to sell in Asia-Pacific and other global markets.
