Cadila Pharma’s rabies vaccine ‘ThRabis’ wins top honour at Golden Globe Tigers Awards

New Delhi: Cadila Pharmaceuticals’ breakthrough three-dose rabies vaccine, Thrabis, has won the top honour at the prestigious The Golden Globe Tigers Awards. The company was awarded with the “Innovative Product of the Year Award” for ThRabis at a grand function in Malaysia on May 23, 2023.

Pankaj Sharma, Vertical Head of Cadila Pharmaceuticals’ Magfam Division, virtually accepted the award on behalf of the company.

“It is an honour to receive this prestigious Innovative Product of the Year award. We are thankful to The Golden Globe Tigers Awards for this opportunity to share and showcase ThRabis, which is truly a breakthrough vaccine with the potential to save thousands of lives in India and globally. This award is a huge recognition of Thrabis’ potential and reflection of Cadila Pharmaceuticals’ commitment to innovation,” Sharma said.

Launched in April last year, ThRabis is the world’s first three-dose recombinant nanoparticle-based rabies G protein vaccine. While other rabies vaccines require five injections spread over 28 days to complete the full regimen, Thrabis has a simpler and more convenient three-dose regimen. In just a year, more than 1 lakh vials of ThRabis have been administered, translating into more than 35,000 animal bite victims. A game-changer in the fight in eliminating rabies, ThRabis has been recommended by more than 10,000 doctors and 2,600 hospitals all over the country.

ThRabis is a breakthrough vaccine and has successfully carved out a niche for itself in just one year. The vaccine has already contributed to saving many lives by helping prevent rabies-related deaths, but this is just the beginning. We are confident that ThRabis will prove to be a game-changer in the fight against rabies and help in eliminating rabies from the country by 2030 and world in the long run.

The Golden Globe Tigers Awards aims to recognize the leaders in marketing, branding, CSR and social innovation, education and academics across leadership levels in individuals and organization’s that aim at believing that excellence is infinite.
