On the news front, AKESO announced on August 12 that its self-developed PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody Ivonescimab (marketed as Yidafang) in combination with chemotherapy for first-line treatment of advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer (SQ-NSCLC) has been approved by China's National Medical Products Administration. This marks the third approved indication for Ivonescimab.
The approval was based on positive results from the Phase III randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical study HARMONi-6/AK112-306, which compared Ivonescimab plus chemotherapy versus tislelizumab plus chemotherapy in first-line treatment of advanced SQ-NSCLC. Additionally, the company recently completed first patient dosing in a Phase II study of its novel Trop2/Nectin-4 bispecific ADC combined with Ivonescimab for breast cancer, further advancing its IO2.0+ADC2.0 strategy.
