Description

Zai Lab Limited, established in 2013 and based in Shanghai, China, is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing and bringing to market innovative medical treatments. Its core focus spans oncology, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and neurological conditions, primarily serving patients in Mainland China and Hong Kong. The company's portfolio of commercialized products includes Zejula, an oral, once-daily poly polymerase 1/2 inhibitor; Optune, a non-invasive device employing tumor treating fields; NUZYRA for addressing acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia; and Qinlock, indicated for gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Zai Lab also maintains a robust pipeline of investigational therapies. This pipeline features numerous oncology assets such as Odronextamab for various lymphomas, Repotrectinib—a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting ROS1 and TRK fusions, Margetuximab for breast and gastroesophageal cancers, Adagrasib for KRAS-G12C-mutated solid tumors, and Bemarituzumab for gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers. Other notable pipeline candidates include CLN-081 for specific non-small cell lung cancers, multi-targeted kinase inhibitors like Elzovantinib, several monoclonal antibodies (e.g., Tebotelimab, Retifanlimab, ZL-1201), and immune modulators such as Efgartigimod for reducing disease-causing IgG antibodies and ZL-1102 targeting IL-17A. Additionally, the company is advancing therapies like KarXT for psychiatric and neurological disorders, novel EGFR inhibitors (ZL-2313, ZL-2314), a CDC7 kinase inhibitor (ZL-2309), and Sulbactam/durlobactam for serious Acinetobacter infections, showcasing its commitment to a broad range of therapeutic innovations.
