Ascentage Pharma Group International has announced that its novel Bcl-2 selective inhibitor, lisaftoclax (APG-2575), has received approval from China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for the treatment of adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) who have previously undergone at least one systemic therapy, including Bruton's tyrosine kinase $(BTK.AU)$ inhibitors. This marks lisaftoclax as the first Bcl-2 inhibitor to receive conditional approval and marketing authorization for CLL/SLL treatment in China, and the second such inhibitor approved globally. Developed by Ascentage Pharma, lisaftoclax aims to restore the normal apoptosis process in cancer cells by selectively blocking the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2. The approval is based on positive results from a pivotal registrational Phase II study, highlighting Ascentage Pharma's capabilities in global clinical development and innovation.
