Jacobio applied for approval of glecirasib in non-small cell bronchi cancer cells in China in May, hot on the heels of a data drip that advised the particle’s efficiency remains in the same ballpark as rival drugs. Jacobio identified security and tolerability as a place it may have an advantage over the competitors.Allist secured Mandarin rights to glecirasib as aspect of a package that featured JAB-3312, the medicine prospect that AbbVie ignored in 2013.
