European Commission Approves Sugemalimab (Cejemly®) as 1L Treatment for NSCLC
Dr. Jason Yang, CEO, President of R&D and Executive Director of the Board at CStone, said, “We are extremely excited by today’s announcement, which represents a major milestone in CStone’s journey towards becoming a leading global company dedicated to eradicating cancer. Sugemalimab has not only become CStone’s first independently-developed product to receive overseas marketing authorization but it is also the world’s first anti-PD-L1 mAb to receive regulatory approval in Europe in combination with chemotherapy as first-line treatment for both squamous and non-squamous NSCLC. This achievement reflects the international regulatory authorities’ recognition of our high-quality R&D and manufacturing standards, and it infuses new momentum into our globalization strategy. We are humbled by level of interest in sugemalimab commercial partnership from companies around the world which only signifies the large unmet need in this class for newer and better drugs. We are actively engaging with potential partners in Western Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, Southeast Asia, and Canada and we expect to announce the completion of these deals soon.”
