Sunshine Novo’s Small Nucleic Acid Drug IND Application Accepted; Innovative Drug Pipeline Enters Harvest Phase

SSE News / China Securities Online (Reporter: Li Yanzheng) — Sunshine Novo announced on January 21, 2026, that its investigational small nucleic acid drug, ABA001, has formally received Clinical Trial Application (IND) acceptance from the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). The drug is targeting hypertension, marking a pivotal step forward for the company’s nucleic acid drug platform. ABA001 utilizes GalNAc covalent conjugation technology to precisely deliver siRNA into hepatocytes, specifically degrading AGT mRNA to effectively “shut off” the pressor switch of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS). Non-clinical data demonstrate that a single subcutaneous injection can produce rapid and sustained blood-pressure-lowering effects in animal models, accompanied by a favorable safety profile. Classified as a Category 1 innovative chemical drug, ABA001 is intended for the treatment of primary hypertension. It offers the potential for quarterly or even semi-annual dosing, a significant improvement over existing daily medications. According to the regulatory review process, if ...

Big news! Chia Tai Tianqing’s oral GLP-1 has been approved for clinical trials! Can its differentiated “biased” mechanism break through the red ocean market?

On January 20, the CDE (Center for Drug Evaluation) announced the implicit approval for clinical trials, showing that TQF3250 capsules, an oral weight-loss product submitted by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group in November last year, has been approved for clinical trials. Unlike the more familiar GLP-1 receptor agonists on the market, TQF3250 is an “orally administered small molecule-biased GLP-1 receptor agonist.” It preferentially activates cAMP-related pathways, reducing β-arrestin recruitment and receptor endocytosis, aiming to achieve a better balance between duration of action and tolerability. From a mechanistic research perspective, the signal bias of the GLP-1 receptor is indeed considered a potential direction for optimization by the academic community. Rewinding to a month ago, a landmark event occurred in the global narrative of oral weight-loss drugs. Novo Nordisk’s oral weight-loss drug received FDA approval in December 2025, seizing a crucial position in the oral weight-loss drug market. Subsequently, Eli Lilly’s oral ...

Industry News | Roche’s Class 1 Oral GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Approved for Clinical Trials in China

On January 20, the website of the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) announced that Roche’s Class 1 new drug RO7795081 has been approved for clinical trials in China, intended for long-term weight management in overweight or obese patients. Public information shows that RO7795081 (CT-996) is an oral glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist . Roche previously entered into a merger agreement with Carmot Therapeutics, acquiring the company for approximately $3.1 billion, thereby gaining access to three GLP-1 investigational therapies, one of which is CT-996. Publicly available information shows that, unlike endogenous GLP-1 hormones, CT-996 is specifically designed as a biased GLP-1 receptor agonist that activates cAMP signaling with minimal recruitment of β-arrestin. These precisely modulated signaling properties promise to lead to robust glycemic control, resulting in significant weight loss and good tolerability. In July 2024, Roche announced positive results from a Phase 1 clinical ...
