Main Business GenFleet Therapeutics, established in 2017, is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on innovative and effective treatment solutions in the fields of oncology, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

As of recently, GenFleet Therapeutics has established a continuously updated product pipeline comprising 8 drug candidates, with 5 currently in clinical development stages.

One of GenFleet Therapeutics' core products, GFH925 (fulzerasib, brand name Dabrafenib®), is an innovative drug discovered independently by the company. It has received commercial approval in China for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), making it the first in China and the third globally approved selective Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) G12C inhibitor.

Another core product of the company, GFH312, is a highly effective small molecule inhibitor independently developed by the company that targets and inhibits the kinase activity of receptor-interacting serine/threonine protein kinase 1 (RIPK1). It has received FDA IND approval to conduct Phase II clinical trials in the United States to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GFH312 in patients with peripheral artery disease and intermittent claudication.

Beyond its core products, GenFleet Therapeutics is building a comprehensive and differentiated RAS product matrix, including GFH375 (an orally bioavailable KRAS G12D small molecule inhibitor), GFH276 (a pan-RAS activated non-degrading molecular glue), and GFS784 (a novel drug modality utilizing the synergistic effects of large and small molecules). Additionally, the company is committed to further enriching its product pipeline portfolio, such as GFS202A (a bispecific antibody targeting GDF15 and IL-6), GFH009 (a selective small molecule compound targeting CDK9), and GFH018 (a potent TGF-βR1 small molecule inhibitor).

GenFleet Therapeutics' diversified product pipeline portfolio is the natural output of the company's proven comprehensive R&D platform, which covers target discovery, molecular discovery and evaluation, translational science, and global clinical development, supplemented by the company's professional expertise in key chemistry, manufacturing and control aspects including formulation research and quality analysis.
