- All seven approved indications of TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) were included in the NRDL. It is also the only PD-1 inhibitor in the NRDL for the treatment of GC and EGFR-mutated NSCLC. As for market expansion, TVYVT® (sintilimab injection) was newly approved in the Macau market in February 2024.
- Olverembatinib's first indication was included in the NRDL; and its second indication was newly approved to benefit broader CML patients.
- All indications of BYVASDA® (bevacizumab injection), HALPRYZA® (rituximab injection) and SULINNO® (adalimumab injection) were also included in the NRDL.
- Oncology and general biomedicines as key growth pillars of the company:
- Oncology: we have launched eight products including TYVYT® (sintilimab injection), established a mature commercial presence of nearly 3,000 employees, nationwide patient access and a well-recognized brand image. We will continue to solidify leadership and expand business in oncology.
- General biomedicine: we have made considerable progress in past years advancing and expanding our pipeline in general biomedicine, including cardiovascular and metabolism (CVM), autoimmune, and ophthalmology, which we believe will result in substantially increased commercial opportunities and diversified long-term growth.
- Therefore, as part of the strategic plan, we have been steadily establishing our commercialization capability in the CVM field with systematic approaches. We plan to implement a comprehensive structure and form strategies for key factors, such as patient access, distribution channels, and marketing activities, to ensure all capabilities, personnel and strategies are in place to facilitate effective operations of our business, and to foster long-term brand image and competitive advantage in this new area.
