SINO BIOPHARM's stock surged 6.83% intraday on Thursday, marking a significant upward movement for the pharmaceutical company.
The sharp rise follows the announcement of an exclusive global licensing agreement with Sanofi for rovadicitinib, a novel oral JAK/ROCK inhibitor. Under the deal, SINO BIOPHARM's subsidiary granted Sanofi exclusive rights to develop and commercialize the drug, making the company eligible for up to $1.53 billion in payments including a $135 million upfront fee and milestone payments, plus tiered royalties on future sales.
This partnership represents a major validation of SINO BIOPHARM's research pipeline and provides substantial potential future revenue streams, driving investor optimism during the trading session.
