"The initial NRDL inclusion for VYVGART is an especially important milestone for gMG patients and underscores the clinical value Zai Lab is delivering to the medical community and to patients in China," said William Liang, Chief Commercial Officer of Zai Lab. "The addition of both VYVGART and NUZYRA (oral formulation) to the NRDL, as well as the renewal of previously included indications for ZEJULA, further supports patient access to these important medications throughout China at reduced prices, which significantly lower the cost of treatment for patients and their families."
"A key part of Zai Lab’s mission is to bring innovative medicines to patients with significant unmet medical needs in China and around the world," said Josh Smiley, President and Chief Operating Officer of Zai Lab. "We are pleased that we now have four products included in the NRDL, and we will continue our efforts to expand patient access to our innovative treatments, including through NRDL coverage of different indications and formulations for our commercial products. We are grateful for this action by the NHSA, and we look forward to continuing to work with the NHSA to improve patient access and costs for high-quality treatments in China."
