summits' ivonescimab approved for use in china - speculation that the chinese market is far larger than the US, but have to assume a significant retail price difference per dose - because mandatory stateside gouging...wondering what typical US approval path is for other drugs that were chinese approved and later approved in US? and why not even a remote attempt for chinese LL approval during covid?

Quote: Summit Therapeutics just slapped the face of Keytruda



Summit's drug ivonescimab is a PD-1/VEGF inhibitor. PD-1 and VEGF inhibition (downregulates angiogenesis) would definitely be better than PD-1 alone. Their recent trial was for EGFR-mutated nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer. Keytruda's trial in the same indication showed no statistically significant improvement. Which is no surprise since no PD1/PD-L1 inhibitor has shown improvement in the EGFR variant. So certainly ivonescimab's very good improvement* is due to the VEGF side of the drug. Leronlimab downregulates PD-L1 and VEGF and EGF/EGFR and so much more than ivonescimab so you have to wonder what leronlimab's progression free survival would be.
