Jemincare’s Wholly Owned Subsidiary Secures 6 Clinical Trial Approvals for Innovative Drugs

Jemincare, a prominent Chinese pharmaceutical company, has announced significant progress in its drug development endeavors. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Shanghai Jemincare Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., has recently received approvals for 6 clinical trials for innovative drugs, with 4 approvals from the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and 2 approvals from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA).

The approvals cover a range of therapeutic areas, including cancer, kidney diseases, and anti-infectious diseases. Notable approvals include:

1.        JMKX003801 (Gram-negative Bacterial Infection): NMPA approved a clinical trial for treating serious infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, addressing rising antibiotic resistance, especially carbapenem resistance. JMKX003801 is expected to demonstrate a broad antibacterial spectrum.

2.        JMKX003142 (Renal Edema): NMPA approved a clinical trial for treating renal edema in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. With around 120 million CKD patients in China, JMKX003142 aims to improve patients’ quality of life as a novel diuretic drug.

3.        JMKX003948 (Renal Cell Carcinoma): NMPA approved a clinical trial for treating renal cell carcinoma, targeting a significant gap in treatment options post-failure of existing therapies. Preclinical studies suggest a different mechanism of action for JMKX003948.

4.        JMKX000197 (Bladder Cancer): FDA and NMPA approved clinical trials for treating BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. JMKX000197 is anticipated to regulate the immune system and exhibit a significant anti-tumor effect.

5.        JMKX003002 (Hyperphosphatemia in CKD Patients): FDA approved a clinical trial for treating hyperphosphatemia in end-stage kidney disease patients on dialysis. With approximately 120 million CKD patients in China, JMKX003002 aims to reduce phosphorus levels with a long-lasting effect and better oral compliance.

These approvals underscore Jemincare’s commitment to addressing critical healthcare challenges and advancing innovative treatments across various therapeutic areas. The company aims to contribute significantly to improving patient outcomes and addressing unmet medical needs.
