Suzhou Zelgen Biopharmaceuticals, based in Suzhou, founded in 2009 and listed as 688266.SS, developed donafenib, the deuterated version of sorafenib that beat the original in first-line liver cancer and was approved in China in 2021. Donafenib, sold as Zepsun, was approved in 2021 for hepatocellular carcinoma and in 2022 for thyroid cancer on the strength of the ZGDH3 trial against sorafenib; the pipeline includes jaktinib, a JAK inhibitor for myelofibrosis, and recombinant human thrombin, and the company was among the first listed on Shanghai's STAR Market before reaching profitability. OnCo links it to donafenib and to ZGDH3. Whether a deuterated improvement on an older drug can hold its place as immunotherapy combinations take over first-line liver cancer is the open question. Donafenib has its own page.
