A New Battlefield for China’s Innovative Drugs

Recently, Reindeer Biotech announced that the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has formally accepted its application for marketing authorization of its CAR-T cell product, Ikiorenzai Injection (FUCASO), for inclusion in the Australian Therapeutic Goods Register (ARTG) and entered the evaluation stage for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (r/r MM) who have progressed after at least three lines of prior therapy. This event is not only a milestone in the internationalization of a single company, but also reflects a profound shift in the strategic positioning of Chinese innovative drugs in Australia. For a long time, Australia has been a “hotbed” and “stepping stone” for Chinese pharmaceutical companies to conduct early clinical trials, but there are very few cases of commercialization and listing in Australia. As clinical benefits gradually reach their peak and market competition intensifies, Chinese pharmaceutical companies, represented by Reindeer Biotech, are attempting to bridge the ...

【EXPERT Q&A】If the buyer only says “Send me your catalog”, should the entire catalog be sent directly?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: When engaging in pharmaceutical foreign trade, you often receive very short inquiries that simply say: “Send me your catalog.” Some buyers only leave their country and email address, with no mention of specific products, purchase quantities, or whether they are importers, distributors or end users. Many suppliers’ first reaction is to send over the company catalog directly. It is a dozens-of-page PDF covering a full product line, complete with images, parameters and company introduction. After sending it, they just wait for the buyer’s reply. But more often than not, there is no follow-up response. It is not that the catalog is completely useless. The problem is that when you send the entire catalog directly, the buyer may not bother to read it carefully. Especially for products like APIs, excipients, medical devices and consumables, buyers rarely go through a catalog “just browsing casually”. They probably already have a ...

【EXPERT Q&A】For suppliers without mature export cases, what else can be written on the enterprise page?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: Many new suppliers on the platform get stuck on one question when completing their company profile page: “We don’t have many mature export cases yet, so is there nothing substantial to write in our company introduction?” This is especially true for enterprises in the API, excipient, pharmaceutical intermediate and medical device sectors. If they do not yet have stable overseas orders or representative clients, they can easily end up with a very empty and generic company page. Common generic lines include: “We are a professional supplier.” “We provide high quality products.” “We have competitive prices and good service.” These statements are not technically wrong, but overseas buyers can hardly tell exactly what the enterprise is capable of delivering after reading them. Not having mature export cases does not mean your company page has to be empty. When buyers visit a company page, they do not only look ...
