Next step, the<br \/>\nCompany will focus on the launch and successful commercialization of BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.<br \/>\nAs manufacturing cost leadership is essential for the success of the product,<br \/>\nthe company is already working with a number of strategic partnerships across<br \/>\nthe supply chain to ensure BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> is manufactured at the lowest<br \/>\ncost possible. Additionally, the Company successfully held the BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><br \/>\nlaunch conference on 11 December 2020, where more than 60 commercial partners<br \/>\nattended the event. <\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\">Acarbose was first developed<br \/>\nby Bayer in 1975 and launched in Switzerland in 1986 (trade name: Glucobay<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>). As the first<br \/>\nFDA-approved alpha-glucosidase inhibitor in the world, it entered China in 1994<br \/>\nand is now recommended as a first-line drug for T2D. Acarbose is sold far<br \/>\nbetter in China and Asia than in other western countries due to the high<br \/>\ncarbohydrate content in Asian cuisine. <\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\">Although BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><br \/>\nis the fifth Acarbose launched in China, the Group is still confident in taking<br \/>\nmarket share for two reasons. Firstly, Acarbose has been marketed in China for<br \/>\nmore than 20 years, China&#8217;s Acarbose market is dominated by Glucobay<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.<br \/>\nNevertheless, in recent years, the market share of Glucobay<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> is rapidly<br \/>\ndeclining, while the market share of domestic-made counterparts is rising due<br \/>\nto more affordable pricing. Moreover, BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> is expected to be<br \/>\nincluded in the next national drug volume-based procurement, the stable supply of API and Acarbose Market<br \/>\nAuthorization Holder (&#8220;MAH&#8221;) strategy of the Group enables Acarbose cost<br \/>\nleadership and decreases supply chain risk in the future. It is expected that<br \/>\nat least three companies can potentially win the national procurement, where<br \/>\neach winner enjoys approximately 30% market share of the whole centralized<br \/>\nprocurement market. According to the Chinese public healthcare institute sales<br \/>\ndata, Acarbose reached RMB 8.4 billion in sales in 2018, growing at<br \/>\ndouble-digit CAGR in the past five years. If the Group successfully implements<br \/>\nits strategy and win the national procurement, BOSHUTAI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> will<br \/>\nsignificantly and positively impact revenue in the coming few years.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.media-outreach.com\/release.php\/View\/58401#Contact\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HONG KONG SAR &#8211; EQS Newswire &#8211; 16 December 2020 &#8211;\u00a0A fully integrated biopharmaceutical company &#8212; Uni-Bio Science Group Limited (the &#8220;Company&#8221;, together with its subsidiaries, the &#8220;Group&#8221;; Stock code: 00690.HK) is pleased to announce that BOSHUTAI\u00ae (Acarbose Tablets) has been granted approval for marketing in China by the National Medical Products Administration (&#8220;NMPA&#8221;) on &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10221,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[60],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10220"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10220"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10220\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10221"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10220"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10220"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eodishasamachar.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10220"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
