The company recently announced that its global innovative ophthalmic drug GPN00884, designed to slow myopia progression in children, has completed the first patient enrollment and dosing in its China Phase IIa clinical study. This milestone marks GPN00884's entry into a critical phase exploring dosage and preliminary efficacy.

Notably, in July this year, GRAND PHARMA launched varenicline tartrate nasal spray (OC-01) in mainland China, revolutionizing dry eye treatment with its nasal administration approach. Recently, the company held a national launch event for OC-01 during the "11th Global Dry Eye Academic Conference," themed "Caring for Dry Eye Patients, Ushering in the Era of Natural Tears—2025 Advances in Dry Eye Diagnosis & Treatment and Ocular Surface Health Ecosystem." The event highlighted OC-01's shift from traditional "external replacement" therapies to an "innate activation" approach in dry eye management.
