Sugemalimab is CStone's PD-L1 antibody, approved in China for first-line lung cancer with chemotherapy and after chemoradiotherapy in stage III disease, and the first China-developed PD-L1 antibody to win European approval.
GEMSTONE-302 (479 patients, squamous and non-squamous metastatic NSCLC) gave a progression-free survival hazard ratio of 0.50 versus placebo plus platinum chemotherapy, the basis of the NMPA approval in December 2021. GEMSTONE-301 added unresectable stage III NSCLC after concurrent or sequential chemoradiotherapy in 2022, and relapsed or refractory extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma followed. The European Commission approved sugemalimab with platinum chemotherapy for first-line metastatic NSCLC without EGFR, ALK, ROS1 or RET alterations in July 2024, making it the first anti-PD-L1 antibody from a Chinese company approved in the EU.
Fully human anti-PD-L1 IgG4 antibody generated in the OmniRat platform; blocks PD-L1 binding to PD-1 and B7-1. Connects to PD-L1.
