CSPC Pharmaceutical Group (HKG:1093) said China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approved clinical trials for Leuprorelin Extended-release Injection (SYH9016), according to a Friday filing with the Hong Kong bourse.
The medication, meant to treat solid tumors, does not require complicated preparation before administration. Its thinner injection needle delivers a smaller dosing volume, which is expected to reduce pain at the injection site compared with its predecessor, the filing added.
