AstraZeneca's new ADC drug, AZD9829, has been granted clinical trial implicit approval in China for the treatment of CD123-positive hematologic malignancies. The drug has demonstrated strong killing ability against AML cells in vitro and exhibited anti-tumor activity in 13 AML patient models. AstraZeneca is also conducting clinical studies in the United States to evaluate the drug's safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity. The implicit approval for clinical trials obtained this time will pave the way for the drug's clinical research in China.
