Zhejiang Tianyu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (300702.SZ) announced that the Apalutamide active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary Zhejiang Kingsun Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Kingsun Pharmaceutical"), has recently passed the review conducted by the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of the National Medical Products Administration. Apalutamide is a non-steroidal anti-androgen drug used for the treatment of prostate cancer; it functions by inhibiting the androgen receptor signaling pathway, thereby delaying disease progression. It is primarily indicated for non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) and metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) and must be used in combination with castration therapy under a physician's guidance.
