New eye medicine company will lay tens of billions of “golden eggs”

In front of the old domestic eye medicine leaders such as Yisheng Bio and Xingqi Eye Medicine, Zhaoke Ophthalmology is a young upstart. In 2021, Zhaoke Ophthalmology successfully landed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange as the second eye medicine biotechnology company with 25 ophthalmic drug candidates. Three years later, although it has not yet gotten out of the quagmire of losses, Zhaoke Ophthalmology is still working hard in the eye medicine track and finally ushered in the opportunity to overtake on the curve. Two years of rapid growth, fierce attack on the “first billion drug” Recently, Zhaoke Ophthalmology announced that the Phase III clinical trial (China CHAMP) of its eye medicine candidate NVK002 has achieved positive top-line results.

Gan & Lee aims at the hypoglycemic drug market

Collective procurement ‘big winner’ In 1995, Gan Zhongru, who had worked as a postdoctoral fellow and senior biochemist at Merck&Co. in the United States, returned to China to start a business. Three years later, the team formed by Gan Zhongru developed China’s first genetically recombinant human insulin, becoming the third company after Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk to produce and sell recombinant human insulin. Subsequently, under the leadership of Gan Zhongru and his R&D team, Gan Li Pharmaceutical continued to develop the first long-acting insulin analog, the first fast acting insulin analog, the first pre mixed insulin analog, and the first winter insulin in China.

Let’s look at the suspense of the King of Medicine

On October 31, Merck was the first to release its third-quarter financial report. In the first three quarters, K drug performed as well as ever, with sales of US$21.646 billion, a year-on-year increase of 18%, and annual sales are expected to exceed US$29 billion. According to this trend, K drug is likely to defend the title of King of Medicine in 2024. However, on November 6, after Novo Nordisk released its third-quarter report, the competition for the King of Medicine caused a stir. In the first three quarters, the total sales of multiple versions of semaglutide reached US$20.3 billion, approaching K drug. Such a limited gap also indicates the fierceness of the competition for the King of Medicine. Before the results of the fourth quarter are announced, no one knows the final answer. Will K drug become the “shortest-lived King of Medicine” in history? On February 1, 2024, with the ...
