Is Modeyso available in the UAE?

Modeyso has an active code in Abu Dhabi's official drug list (checked 17 October 2026); its federal status is unverified. It is a once-weekly oral capsule for H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma. In Abu Dhabi, your specialist can prescribe it through a hospital that stocks it. Elsewhere in the UAE, the hospital pharmacy confirms status first.

  • Registration: Listed with an active code (YQ1-E512-20681-01) in the Abu Dhabi Department of Health (DoH) drug code list (release of 26 September 2026); we could not verify its federal EDE status.
  • Access route: Prescription through a hospital that stocks it (listed in Abu Dhabi); elsewhere the hospital confirms status first.
  • Who acts: your treating specialist and hospital; the hospital pharmacy orders it.
  • Timeline: We give you a written timeline estimate for your case before you commit.

Status in the UAE, with dates

  • Modeyso has an active code (YQ1-E512-20681-01) in the Abu Dhabi DoH drug code list, release of 26 September 2026. A DoH code can reflect registration or another authorized supply route. (source)

What Modeyso is

Modeyso (dordaviprone) is made by Jazz Pharmaceuticals. The US FDA granted Modeyso accelerated approval on 6 August 2025 for adult and pediatric patients 1 year of age and older with diffuse midline glioma harboring an H3 K27M mutation, with progressive disease after prior therapy. Continued approval may depend on the phase 3 ACTION trial. At US approval, Jazz said Modeyso was not approved anywhere else in the world.

How it is given: A capsule taken by mouth once a week. Your neuro-oncologist will explain side effects and monitoring.

How access works in the UAE

Because Modeyso is listed in Abu Dhabi, a specialist can prescribe it through a hospital that stocks it, and the hospital pharmacy orders it through the local supply channel. A named-patient import is meant for medicines that are not registered, so it is not the usual route.

If your hospital cannot obtain it, ask the hospital pharmacy why. The reason may be stock, the hospital formulary or funding, and each has a different answer.

The Abu Dhabi list covers coded products in that emirate. Ask the hospital pharmacy to confirm the current status with EDE and, for Abu Dhabi or Dubai hospitals, with DoH or DHA.

If a hospital outside Abu Dhabi needs to import it:

The Emirates Drug Establishment (EDE) is the UAE's federal medicines regulator. It was created by Federal Decree No. 28 of 2023 and took over the medicines role of the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP). Medicines normally have to be registered before they are used.

For a medicine that is not registered, the treating hospital asks for approval to import it for a specific patient. The hospital signs an undertaking that it takes responsibility for the medicine's use and shows that the medicine is registered in its country of origin. FDA approval makes this easier. The medicine stays inside the hospital system and cannot be resold.

Hospitals in Abu Dhabi are licensed by the Department of Health (DoH), and hospitals in Dubai by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA). Your hospital pharmacy knows which office handles the file for your hospital today.

Who does what

  • Your treating specialist decides whether Modeyso is right for the patient and writes the referral or prescription.
  • The hospital or treatment center orders and gives the medicine, and is responsible for using it safely.
  • The Emirates Drug Establishment (EDE) registers medicines and decides on any import request for a medicine that is not registered.
  • Jazz Pharmaceuticals makes Modeyso and decides where it can be supplied.
  • Reserve Meds helps your family understand the steps, organizes records and communication, and, where an import is needed, arranges US supply through our licensed wholesale partner. We do not give medical advice.

Documents you will usually need

  • The pathology report showing the H3 K27M mutation, and recent MRI scans showing progression
  • A prescription or treatment plan from the specialist, with the dose and duration
  • Recent clinic notes and laboratory results
  • For an import request: the hospital's request form, its signed declaration of responsibility, written patient consent, and proof of the US FDA approval (we can supply the US prescribing information)

Steps

  1. Assessment. Your specialist confirms that the patient fits the approved use and orders the needed tests.
  2. Prescription. The specialist prescribes it at a hospital that stocks it.
  3. Supply. The hospital pharmacy orders it through the local supply channel.
  4. Treatment. The patient starts treatment with the monitoring the label requires.
