UK MHRA approved toripalimab (LOQTORZI®)-chemo combos for the 1L treatment of metastatic NPC and unresectable advanced, recurrent, or metastatic ESCC

Dr. Jianjun ZOU, General Manager and CEO of Junshi Biosciences, said, “The approval of toripalimab by MHRA marks another significant milestone for toripalimab in Europe, not only making toripalimab the first and only drug in UK for the treatment of NPC, but also the only first-line treatment for ESCC, regardless of PD-L1 status. We are extremely proud to introduce innovative Chinese biopharmaceuticals to Europe that can address longstanding unmet medical needs of the patients there. Moving forward, we will remain committed to our globalization strategy, ‘In China, For Global.’ We will continue working towards the commercialization of toripalimab, and offer high-quality, innovative, domestically developed medicines to benefit more patients around the world.”
