Ivonescimab + Chemo Approved in China by NMPA for 1L Treatment of Patients with Squamous NSCLC
“The NMPA approval of ivonescimab in China in combination with chemotherapy for first-line advanced squamous NSCLC represents a landmark achievement for patients, physicians and the field of oncology. Based on the HARMONi-6 trial, ivonescimab has now demonstrated both progression-free survival and overall survival superiority versus a PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy regimen, establishing a new benchmark in one of the most widely treated settings in cancer care,” said Dr. Michelle Xia, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of Akeso. “This third approval for an ivonescimab-containing regimen in China reflects the strength of Akeso’s innovation platform, the dedication of our clinical investigators and patients, and the transformative potential of ivonescimab as a next-generation immuno-oncology therapy. Together with Summit, we are committed to bringing the full potential of ivonescimab to patients worldwide.”
