MT Newswires Live05-20

Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals (SHA:600276) obtained approval from China's National Medical Products Administration to market a nutritional injection for adult patients in catabolic states, according to a Shanghai bourse filing on Wednesday.

The regulatory nod clears the drugmaker to commercialize its omega-3 triglyceride (2%) medium/long chain fat emulsion/amino acid (16)/glucose (30%) injection, which supplies essential parenteral energy and nutrients to patients experiencing moderate to severe catabolism.

The company has so far invested 83.9 million yuan into the research and development of the treatment.

The pharmaceutical company's shares fell 1% during morning trade on Wednesday.
