Local lung cancer drug approved
Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group said it has received market approval for the first domestic therapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer with certain types of gene mutation.
“This marks a milestone for domestic targeted therapy for lung cancer which also fits with China’s health care blueprint to encourage local innovation,” said Lu Shun, who led the registrational study and is a professor at the Shanghai Chest Hospital affiliated with Jiao Tong University.
The almonertinib mesilate tablet from Jiangsu-based Hansoh Pharma is a 3rd generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor for patients who are T790M mutation-positive.
It is the first of its kind which is locally developed to be approved by the National Medical Products Administration.
