China's Innovent holds potential to change pancreatic cancer treatment landscape, says analyst

14 June 2024

China’s Innovent Biologics (HKG: 1801) recently presented Phase I study results of its first-in-class anti-CLDN18.2/CD3 bispecific antibody (IBI389) for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.

Preliminary results from the Phase I study (NCT05164458) of IBI389 demonstrated promising efficacy in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and the bispecific antibody is expected to evolve as a promising therapeutic option for PDAC in China and globally, says pharma analytics company GlobalData.

According to GlobalData’s Pharma Intelligence Center, the number of diagnosed prevalent cases of PDAC in urban China is expected to increase at an annual growth rate (AGR) of 5.71% from 19,871 in 2023 to 25,777 in 2029.
