CuprinaReceives U.S. FDA 510(k) Clearance for MEDIFLY Maggots —
the First U.S. Clearance for a Lucilia cuprina Maggot Debridement Product
SINGAPORE,June 15, 2026 – Cuprina Holdings (Cayman) Limited (Nasdaq: CUPR) (“CUPR” or “the Company”), a biomedical company developing and marketing products for the chronic wounds, infertility, medical waste recycling, and cosmeceuticals sectors, today announced that an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Cuprina Pte. Ltd. has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for MEDIFLY Maggots™, its medical-grade Lucilia cuprina larvae used in maggot debridement therapy (MDT). To the Company’s knowledge, MEDIFLY Maggots™ is the first maggot debridement product to receive U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance using the Lucilia cuprina species.
MEDIFLY Maggots™ is cleared for the debridement of non-healing necrotic skin and soft tissue wounds, including pressure ulcers, neuropathic foot ulcers, and non-healing traumatic or post-surgical wounds. The prescription product consists of medical-grade fly larvae applied to a wound under the supervision of trained healthcare professionals to remove dead and infected tissue and support the body’s natural healing process.
Chronic non-healing wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers and pressure injuries, affect millions of patients and place a significant and growing burden on health systems. It is estimated that 1-2% of the population in developed countries suffer from chronic wounds [Falanga et al., 2022]. With FDA clearance, MEDIFLY Maggots™ should soon become available to wound-care providers across the United States. As a biological, non-antibiotic approach to wound debridement, MDT is also drawing renewed interest amid global concern over antimicrobial resistance.
BUILDINGON THE HERITAGE OF MODERN MAGGOT THERAPY
MEDIFLY Maggots™ received clearance based on substantial equivalence to Medical Maggots™, the Lucilia sericata product that became the first medicinal maggot cleared by the FDA in 2004. That clearance is held by Dr. Ronald A. Sherman, a pioneer of modern MDT and Cuprina’s Medical and Scientific Director. Cuprina is the licensed producer and distributor of Medical Maggots™ for the U.S. market.
With the MEDIFLY clearance, Cuprina now holds U.S. FDA commercial rights to both maggot species used in maggot debridement therapy: Luciliasericata, licensed from Dr. Sherman, and Lucilia cuprina, through its own MEDIFLY clearance. The Company believes this dual-species position is distinctive in the field and provides flexibility to serve clinicians and to pursue regulatory pathways in other markets.
The two species fit different markets. Lucilia sericata carries the longer track record in Western wound care, while Lucilia cuprina, found across Australia, Africa, Asia and parts of the Americas, is the species clinicians and regulators already recognise across many warmer-climate markets. Holding both lets Cuprina lead with whichever species a given market knows best, an advantage as the Company expands its wound-care presence across Asia and the Middle East.
“We now hold FDA clearance for both species used in MDT, a position no other company holds. This anchors our wound-care platform in one of the world’s most demanding regulatory markets and gives us a defensible edge as we continue to build our portfolio,” said David Quek, Chief Executive Officer of Cuprina.
“Maggot debridement therapy has earned its place in modern wound care, and adding a second FDA-cleared species strengthens the entire field,” said Dr. Sherman. “Lucilia cuprina has a meaningful international track record, and brings it under U.S. FDA clearance gives clinicians and their patients more flexibility in how this therapy is delivered.”
FDA 510(k) clearance is a globally recognized regulatory benchmark. The Company believes the clearance supports, and may help accelerate, registration pathways for MEDIFLY Maggots™ in other markets, including Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong and mainland China, where Cuprina is developing its wound-care presence. Any such registrations remain subject to the requirements and timelines of the relevant national regulatory authorities.
MEDIFLY Maggots™ was reviewed and cleared by the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), which assumed regulatory oversight of medicinal maggots in December 2024. The clearance established a recognized U.S. regulatory foundation for the product and complements Cuprina’s broader chronic-wound portfolio, creating commercial opportunities the Company continues to evaluate.
