Grand Pharmaceutical Group (HKG:0512) completed the first patient enrollment and dosing in China for the international multi-center Phase III clinical trial of ITM-11, an innovative radionuclide-drug conjugate.
The medicine ITM-11 is meant to treat gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs), according to a Wednesday filing with the Hong Kong bourse.
The drug is designed for patients with moderate to aggressive forms (Grade 2 and Grade 3) of these tumors, which have a specific protein called somatostatin receptor (SSTR+).
