Equity Bottom-Up

In February, 2021, China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) granted priority review to the New Drug Application (NDA) for ATG-010 (selinexor, XPOVIO), a first-in-class selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound, for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM). Recently, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/antengene-corp-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:29705:1" rel="noopener">Antengene (6996 HK)</a> announced that the NMPA has also approved the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for a Phase III clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of selinexor (XPOVIO) in the treatment of advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (the SIENDO trial). In fact, selinexor would be the first-to-market product in the pipeline and is also a core product for the Company. So, how is this product and what is the business prospect of Antengene?
