Clinical Trials for Liver Cancer Drug Development

In 2018, we obtained orphan drug designation (ODD) from the FDA for liver cancer. In 2021, we received approval for Phase II clinical trials from both the FDA and the TFDA. Additionally, we collaborated with 13 medical centers in Taiwan to conduct multi-center competitive patient enrollment and trials. This is currently the largest clinical trial program in Taiwan's cell therapy industry.
After completing Phase II clinical trials, we plan to apply for conditional drug approval in Taiwan. Upon completing Phase III clinical trials, we will also enjoy a 7-year exclusive market period in the U.S. through the orphan drug designation.
