About HUTCHMED (China) Limited
HUTCHMED (China) Limited is a biopharmaceutical firm dedicated to the discovery, advancement, and marketing of innovative targeted and immune-based treatments for various cancers and immune-related disorders. Its operations are divided into two main areas: Oncology/Immunology and a segment encompassing Other Ventures. The company's reach extends from Hong Kong globally. Among its pipeline, HUTCHMED is developing Savolitinib, an inhibitor targeting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), papillary and renal cell carcinoma, colorectal cancer (CRC), and gastric cancer (GC). Another key therapeutic, Fruquintinib, is an inhibitor being investigated for its efficacy in CRC, breast cancer, GC, endometrial cancer (EMC), NSCLC, hepatocellular carcinoma, and a range of other gastrointestinal and solid tumors. Furthermore, the company's portfolio includes Surufatinib, an inhibitor applicable to numerous conditions such as neuroendocrine tumors (NETs - both pancreatic and non-pancreatic), biliary tract cancer, sarcoma, neuroendocrine neoplasm, esophageal cancer, small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer (GC), thyroid cancer, endometrial cancer (EMC), NSCLC, and general solid tumors. HMPL-523, a spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is designed to treat hematological cancers and specific chronic immune conditions, while HMPL-689 targets the isoform PI3Kd (phosphoinositide 3'-kinase delta). Additional compounds in development include Tazemetostat, an EZH2 inhibitor indicated for specific epithelioid sarcoma and follicular lymphoma patients; HMPL-306, an inhibitor showing promise for hematological malignancies, gliomas, and solid tumors; HMPL-760, which functions as a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor; and HMPL-453, an inhibitor aimed at intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The pipeline also features HMPL-295 for solid tumors, HMPL-653 for metastatic solid tumors and tenosynovial giant cell tumors, alongside Epitinib (HMPL-813) and Theliatinib (HMPL-309), both of which act as inhibitors.

Ltd., Innovent Biologics Co., Inc., Genor Biopharma Co. Ltd., Shanghai Junshi Biosciences Co. Ltd., and Epizyme, Inc.
