FDA Orphan Drug Designation for HCB101 in Gastric Cancer

“Receiving our first FDA Orphan Drug Designation is a major milestone for HanchorBio and important validation of our scientific, regulatory, and development strategy,” said Scott Liu, PhD, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of HanchorBio. “Gastric cancer remains an area of profound unmet medical need, and this designation reinforces our commitment to developing differentiated immunotherapies that can meaningfully improve outcomes for patients.
