[Foreign language]
Now, coming up, I'm going to give the floor to the CEO of the company, Mr. Liu. Please go ahead.
Hi, everyone. Good evening. Thank you so much for taking the time to join our 2025 interim results presentation of Kelun-Biotech . We are going to cover four parts during the presentation. First of all, on behalf of the company, I am going to review the performance of the company for the first half of 2025. The second part is our commercialization, which I think many of you are interested in. We will have Mr. Ding and also Mr. Chen introducing these two parts regarding the marketing and commercialization and also the go-to-market part of the company. The third part is the clinical information, which will be led by Dr. Jin. The last part will be the financials, which will be presented by our CFO, Mr. Zhou. After the company's prepared remarks and presentation, we will open the floor for Q&A.
We are going to allocate the questions to the dedicated people. First of all, the first part of the presentation, which will take about 10 minutes, is about the company overview. I think you're all very familiar with this page. I think we've been at this company for over two years. We have been presenting this page across multiple occasions. You can see the biggest shareholder was our Kelun Pharmaceutical Co., which was our parent company. The second biggest shareholder is MSC. MSC, which also is a well-known company in the world. Apart from these two major shareholders, we also have a world-leading R&D platform for ADC and other leading drugs as well. Right now, we actually have about over 30 projects in the pipeline. Across clinical trial stage, we have over 10 projects.
By the first half of this year, we have actually gotten a lot of progress when it comes to approval. We already have three products that have already finished the approval for five indications. We also have four in the process of being NDA approval. We also have two other products, which we will introduce later. When it comes to operation, we actually have over 1,870 people across the company. You can see when it comes to the headcount, mainly it comes from the R&D. Apart from that, it mainly comes from the commercialization and business development team as well. It is mainly preparing for our go-to-market and also market access personnel. We actually have about nearly 400 people in the commercialization team because we now have more and more products ready for the market.
We definitely need to increase personnel and headcount in marketing and also commercialization and production and quality control as well. When it comes to our product pipeline, you can see that we actually have three main products that are ready for the market. The first one is SKB264, also known as MK2872. The indication is, first of all, TNBC. We also have the wild, sort of, Milton-type lung cancer. First of all, for TNBC, we are actually the first in China that actually have gotten the approval as a trope to ADC for TNBC. We also would like to mention that we also got an approval, you know, as the first in the industry, globally speaking, for lung cancer as our target indication this year. For our Sutisma 201 project, we also got an approval also by end of last year for our PD1 A167 project.
Also gotten approval for a first-line indication as well. Right now, for NDA approval process, we first have our 264, which is a second-line lung cancer indication. In the first half of the year, we have submitted a new NDA for approval, which is for HER2-positive and HER2-negative indication. We also have A166 drugs as an ADC for two indications that are waiting for approval. Clinically speaking, we have several types of products. The first one is that we have adopted a differentiated conjugation strategy, including our 315, 410, 500, and 501 project. We also have some potential target ADC projects. For example, SKB518, SKB571. This is our first bi-specific ADC. We also have SKB535 and SKB445. These projects are also in clinical trial stages as well. Dr. Jin is going to give you more information later.
This year, we also have another project that is in clinical trial stage, which is our first RDC, SKB107. This also has entered the clinical trial stage. Next page, we would like to talk about our global partnership. When it comes to international or global partnership and also internationalization of our products, these have always remained very important and critical for our development. Apart from our important collaboration with MSC, we also have, for example, other products that are in partnership with MSC. Obviously, for the past two years, MSC has kicked off 14 TMT-related clinical trial projects, including monotherapy or combotherapy. They have launched this global phase III registrational clinical trials experiments around the world. At the same time, at the beginning of the year, actually, beginning from the end of last year and beginning of this year, we also have launched a new partnership regarding SKB378.
Recently, this project has entered the global phase II clinical trial. Next page is our opted ADC R&D strategy. This is very, very important. For the past year, it has actually generated a lot of interest. I think we've talked about this before. I'm not going to go into the detail. I would like to actually talk about the areas that we want to cover, which is oncology and non-oncology. For oncology, we actually have the replacement of chemotherapy and also going beyond chemotherapy. For replacement, we have novel targets. We also have payload MOA. We also have new conjugation as strategies to replace chemotherapy. These are our main strategies for replacing chemotherapy using our OptiDC platform. When it comes to going beyond chemotherapy, we have, for example, other payload MOAs and also adapted compound structures as new strategies.
As we mentioned previously, we have already gotten some pipeline products going into clinical trial. The next page is our year-to-date achievements. First of all, we would like to report that we already have products ready for the market that are on market. Apart from the sac-TMT for third-line EMFG and non-small cell lung cancer, we also have second-line plus HR -positive and HER2 -negative breast cancer. We have already submitted the NDA and actually, NDA have accepted the approval. We also have multiple pivotal trials initiated, not only in China but also globally, because globally, MSC has kicked off four trials in the first half of 2025 for OCEC, TNBC, and HR low positive and HER2- negative breast cancer. These are global trials kicked off or launched by MSC. We also have been granted breakthrough therapy for breakthrough drugs for first-line non-small cell lung cancer.
We also have released a lot of data across different conferences, including ASCO and also our phase II first-line TNBC results, etc. At the same time, regarding the two trials on lung cancer, we have published data for the first half of the year in BMJ. We have also launched our third-line registrational trial results. We also have published our phase I to non-small cell lung cancer EGFR, Milton-type non-small cell lung cancer data. Also, first half of the year, we would like to also report our A166. A166 has gotten approval to actually carry out the cross-provincial segmented production pilot program because of its unique conjugation and also payload and also its antibody and DSCP. Thanks to the new guideline from the government, we need to actually carry out the segmented production. The country has actually kicked off some pilot programs. This year, we submitted the approval.
Next year, it will be a one-year-long pilot program. Based on that result, we will be pending whether or not it will actually be launched large scale. Our project A166 has successfully gotten the approval to carry out the cross-provincial segmented production pilot program. Once you've gotten the pilot approval, you can actually proceed and push forward the next level or next step of the testing and production and approval. Now, for other projects, for example, A167 and also A140, those are already on market. We also have published data as well. For example, we also have the RET inhibitor. I think Dr. Jin is going to give you more clinical trial data elaboration later. Another thing that we would like to report is our financing from the capital market. We completed the H-share follow-on, $250 million worth of H-share financing.
At the same time, we are currently included as a constituent of the MSCI Global Standard Indexes and also FTSE Global Equity Index Series and Hang Seng Index as well. The next page is also very consistent with what we previously mentioned and we always uphold, which is on the company level, our strategy has always been advancing differentiated pipelines targeting indications with significant medical needs. We also optimize payload. We will continue to optimize our payload linker strategies with novel ADC designs and structures. We are going to explore application into non-oncology as well. Since last year, we have also strengthened and enhanced our end-to-end drug development and commercialization capabilities. We have already achieved this closed loop of R&D plus commercialization and production as well. We will continue to expand our global footprints and strengthen our strategic partnership to maximize the value of our pipelines.
At the same time, we will optimize our operational system to become a leading global biopharmaceutical company so that we can become more and more comprehensive as a company and also more efficient, you know, from the management's perspective as a global biopharmaceutical company. Thank you, Mr. Ge, for your comprehensive introduction and review of the company. Coming up, Mr. Ding and also Mr. Chen are going to talk about our sales and marketing and also our market access so that we can understand better what we've achieved for the first half of 2025. Mr. Ding, please go ahead. Great. Can you hear me okay? Do I come through okay? Yes. Very clear. Hi, everyone. Good evening. For the first half of 2025, we definitely believe that this is the first chapter and first year of our commercialization. We also have really launched our first ADC as commercialized drugs.
The total sales revenue has achieved our expectations, which is around RMB 300 million. For the first half, so far, we have already covered actually over 30 provinces. From the city level, we have covered 300 cities. We also have covered over 1,000 hospitals across China with over 10,000 doctors covered as well. We also have successfully got into non-small cell lung cancer and also key guidelines, etc. At the same time, for the first half, we have already started partnership with over 400 pharmacies across China. If we look at the comparison from second half to first half, we believe that the first half has gotten a lot of new approvals for new indications. We have launched different specifications of the drugs, and those built a very solid foundation for the second half of the year.
That's my very brief overview of the commercialization of our drugs for the first half. If you have any questions, I can elaborate later. Hi, everyone. I would like to also talk about our market access of the company's drugs for the first half of the year. We have three products ready for the market or they are already on the market. We have already launched a lot of partnership with the important partners. For example, we have covered professional pharmacies, 400 of them. Some of them are dual-channel pharmacies. Some of them are actually specific pharmacies as well. Now, for our new drugs, as we mentioned, we have been going into different channels. We're trying to cover actually 4,500 pharmacies in the first half of the year, which significantly enhanced the professionalism of our terminal services and also improved the ability to provide patients with our drugs.
At the same time, right now, our drugs are in the out-of-pocket area. It's not being covered by medical insurance yet. We need to do some more development. For the first half of the year, we have accumulatively covered actually 29 provinces, and for our product, A167, we have covered 25 provinces. A lot of the interest has been surrounding the application or the approval of going into the medical insurance coverage. Actually, today is the last day of this process. I think this is the last stage of the final review. One thing that I would like to mention is that domestically, there are all kinds of insurance, including the medical insurance. We have already successfully covered seven provinces going into this specific kind of affordable care.
We also have gotten into 20 cities into another type of medical care, trying to solve some of the medical expense issues for using our drugs. That's all for the market access and commercialization. Coming up, Dr. Jin is going to walk you through our clinical trial development. Hi, everyone. Coming up, I'm going to update you on our clinical development for 1H 2025. As was mentioned by our CEO, Mr. Liu, we talked about some of the key clinical studies. We already have three drugs that are on market. We also have submitted NDA approval for second-line HR positive and HER2-negative breast cancer. Hopefully, with ESMO, we actually can have more recognition of our phase III results. For our second-line TKI resistance, non-small cell lung cancer indication, we also are looking forward to publishing the results. Hopefully, we can get approval by the end of the year.
Hopefully, we can also present the large phase III trial results on ASCO this year. Another thing that we would like to mention is that in registrational phase III projects, mainly, we would like to talk about the SKB264 for CDK46 inhibitor failure, first-line failure breast cancer. This kind of subtype phase III trial is something that we would like to mention. This is a registrational research. Another thing is that our focus is shifting from SKB264 to some other ADC pipeline projects. For the first half of 2025, we actually have a lot of ADC projects that have gotten R&D approval, that got into clinical trials. As was mentioned by Dr. Ge, we have a lot of first-in-class ADC. We also have bi-specific ADCs. A lot of ADCs, as the first half ramps up, we have entered the escalation trial and going into, you know, actually phase II.
Hopefully, by next year, we can actually expand the indication into covering more. We also can explore maybe a flexible administration. Also, with our clinical trial study, we can actually expand our ADC pipeline into registrational phase III trials. Besides that, we also can see that the possibility of actually having more trials going into actually clinical trial, especially phase III. Now, one of the key focuses is sac-TMT. As we mentioned, all of the registrational studies are going really well. For example, first-line TNBC, PI in first-line, you know, we actually have enrolled over 500 patients. This is a large-scale phase III. Hopefully, by the end of the year or beginning of next year, we can get NDA submission. Another thing that we would like to mention is also for sac-TMT.
We are moving from late line to actually early lines or first line, especially for second line and also some Milton-type phase III trials and also earlier line trials as well. Hopefully, next year, we can submit the NDA approval. We also mentioned that HR positive HER2 -negative breast cancer phase III, we have already initiated. We just finished the patient enrollment. Across the country, we now are launching this project very well and trying to enroll patients into different centers across the country. Obviously, breast cancer and lung cancer are two of the biggest indications. MSC is going to do some differentiation development, for example, for some UC, etc. We are doing some early development assistance and empowerment with MSC together. This year, we also presented some data, especially for chemo failure patients.
As you can see, we are very gladly reporting that you can see the result is very, very well. You can actually see that not only for our second-line TNBC phase III results that we would like to report, we also would like to say that by actually 2025, end of the year, we actually can look forward to reading out the OS results for this large-scale phase III registrational study for actually over 400 patients. At the same time, PFS, you can see that first-line TNBC results, PFS has been improved to over 13 months, which is very exciting. Also, combotherapy with our A166 results are really, really exciting. You know, PFS actually 15+ months . We look forward to phase III trials so that we can re-confirm these very exciting results, very good results. Next page.
Now, for our product project, A166, again, we look forward to getting the approval for HER2-positive breast cancer second-line approval, especially when we look at DS8201 and also a lot of other ADCs. They have already gotten into phase III registrational trial. For A166, our positioning is very, very clear. It's definitely very unique and differentiated ADC. The toxin that it uses is MAE, which is really rare. Our positioning is to target patients who have developed resistance to TOPO enzyme. Also, because the toxin is very different that we use here is very different from other ADCs of the same category, we believe that the safety profiles can actually be much better, especially for patients who developed resistance to existing ADCs. Next page. As was mentioned by Dr. Ge, we already have three drugs that are on the market. A167, for example, this already has been commercialized.
From our clinical data, the results have been very, very exciting. It definitely sets us apart from other drugs such as PD-1, PD-L1. Our positioning is basically to use it to combine with other pipeline projects that we developed, for example, with 315 and other pipelines. You can see that they have exciting results targeting, for example, non-small cell lung cancer. It's for combotherapy and also flexible administration as well. 8140 also has been commercialized for first-line RAS wild-type CRC. For clinical trial data, you know, EGFR is a very good target. Definitely, there's a lot of publication regarding it. Together with ADC, there's a lot of synergy that we can look forward to. We definitely are looking forward to explore the combotherapy results with our existing ADC. Now, 8400 is a small molecule drug, and it's a very targeted treatment as well.
For this drug in particular, we actually are preparing for a submission of NDA. Hopefully, by next year, we can get approval for the market. Again, going back to the earlier statement, for 2025, for the second half of 2025 or going into 2026, I think one of our key focuses is to really develop or continue to push forward the early developed pipeline, including small molecule bi-specific projects, which we are in partnership with MSC with. ASCO 264, I think these are very, very heavy-weighted or highly looked forward, highly expected drugs that we can actually help launch the phase II lung cancer treatment. We can explore monotherapy and also combotherapy so that we can continue to push forward the development with high efficiency, drawing from our previous experience and learnings from other drugs development. Thank you. Thank you, Dr. Jin, for your introduction.
The last part is our financials of the first half of 2025 of the company. First of all, let's look at the bottom line and also top line. We have actually recorded RMB 950 million as our revenue. We are very happy to report that this is our first year of commercialization. We actually have achieved the dual driver of not only R&D but also our sales revenue. Among that RMB 950 million, actually over RMB 300 million come from our commercialized drugs. As was mentioned by our commercial management, we actually have high hopes for the future income from sales revenue. We believe that they will continue to generate cash flow for the company. We also are very happy to report that we have income and revenue coming from our R&D partnership on a yearly basis and maintain a very regular contributor to our cash flow.
When you look at the actual execution of the contracts, we have milestones that trigger this revenue based on different conditions. We have a very broad partnership across different pipeline projects. We actually have a very, very natural mismatch of deadlines of recognizing the revenue. On our financial statement, everyone can actually see that our partnership every year generates income, even though they may originate from the previous periods. The continuous income of R&D revenue is very good for the company. For our gross profit, which was RMB 660 million, basically, it's comparable to the level of the previous year. Our net loss for the first half of the year is RMB 145 million. After the adjustment of the one-off budget and incentives, our adjusted loss was RMB 69 million. Now, the page here is our cost and expenses. First of all, our operating costs actually correspond to our income.
As we mentioned, that includes actually our upfront production and also R&D, including optimizing our development craftsmanship. The cost right now, when you look at the operational cost, the main driver or the main item of the cost is those kinds of costs come from the R&D. The R&D cost-related costs can be reimbursed. That is why the operating cost is over RMB 200 million. On the cost in here, R&D that we have to carry out ourselves is actually RMB 610 million. That's including our headcount, personnel, etc., and clinical trials, etc. Our clinical expenses for the first half was actually RMB 74 million, which is very similar to last year. The next item is our sales and marketing expenses. This year is the first year for our commercialization. For the first half of the year, our sales expenses definitely increased for commercialization purposes. It was RMB 119 million.
You can easily do the math. As we mentioned previously, we have very high hopes for our commercialization. We not only want to have revenue, we also want to be profit-making as well. We believe that we can deliver that in the long term. Now, the last page is basically our consolidated balance sheets. As we mentioned, in June, we have finished and run a round of financing, which allows us to actually generate and enrich our cash at hand. By the first half of this year, our cash and financial assets are mainly some bank financing. Our total scale of cash is actually RMB 4.5 billion, which is very sufficient in order to support our upcoming R&D and innovation. On the debt side, it's less than RMB 1 billion. It's mainly some fluid debts, including some contractual debts or liabilities. Overall, our financial status is really healthy.
That's a very brief introduction and overview of the company's performance for the first half of the year. We now are opening the floor to Q&A. Apart from our online participants, we also have invited a large number of analysts who participate in the meeting offline. If you have any questions online, please raise your hand. We will unmute you when it's your turn to ask the questions. We will also give the opportunity to ask questions offline first too. Who would like to start first? Maybe lady first? Chen Chen? Thank you. My first question is related to our sales. When we look at the first half, you have RMB 300 million in sales revenue. My question is that for breast cancer and lung cancer, what is the breakdown there? Also, your previous sales revenue guideline, do you still uphold that?
Because it used to be RMB 800 million-RMB 1 billion. Sales expenses are about 60%, right? Going into, for example, medical insurance coverage next year, what do you think your sales expenses ratio will become? Right now, your sales team headcount is about 350 people. Are you going to divide them into different indications such as breast cancer, lung cancer, etc.? For hospitals, how are you connected with different hospitals? My second question is related to R&D. For example, you have a lot in the pipeline. You have bi-specific, you have ADC, you also have some projects that you did not disclose the target of. What is your key focus here for your R&D going into the next stage? Thank you so much for your question. The first question is about commercialization, right? Mr. Ding, would you like to take that? Or maybe Mr. Wei?
The second question, I'm going to invite Dr. Ge, Dr. Song to take the second question, right? Let's go. Let's take the first question first. I think there are several sub-questions included in your first question. I'll take them one by one. The first one, lung cancer is definitely the biggest contributor of the sales revenue. It's consistent with our total patient number and also our indication. Our lung cancer definitely is the bigger contributor of our sales revenue. The second part of your question is our sales and revenue, sorry, our sales expenses. If we got into the national centralized medical insurance, the sales revenue will be lower. Right now, definitely, it's at the highest level for sales expenses because this is the first year of our commercialization. We launched a lot of training programs and promotional programs to educate the market.
As we continue to expand our coverage, we are not going to spend as much because when you look at the total number of hospitals, the majority of them actually use these medical insurance-covered products. Once we got into the catalog, the operational cost will come down. When it comes to the headcount of the sales team and also the breakdown of people by indication, first of all, for important hospitals, we can do a clear divide. Overall, the team is pretty comprehensive. We now are connecting with, for example, 100 hospitals. We actually have people who target, for example, breast cancer and lung cancer. In the future, as we continue to advance with medical insurance coverage, I think we are going to connect with more and more hospitals that are not only in top-tier cities but also in lower-tier cities and smaller counties as well.
As we go into lower-tier cities and counties, obviously, those salespeople will have overlapped responsibilities. For top-tier hospitals, obviously, we will divide people based on the indication and oncology. For smaller cities, maybe not so much. When it comes to sales expectation, I think for the second half, definitely lung cancer indication is going to generate more income for us. This year is the first year of our sales and commercialization. We are still laying the groundwork for ADC. We definitely are not trying to just divide the market or get some market share. We also take the responsibility of educating a lot of clinical experts so that they can adopt ADC drugs. I think it will take time to generate results. When we look at the second half of the year, statistically speaking, we expect to actually have more sales revenue by comparison to the first half.
I think I have another part of the question that regards the sales guideline. I mean, any guidance, sorry, any guidance changes on the sales performance? Yes, I would like to repeat my question. You mentioned that your sales expectation is RMB 1 billion. Do you maintain the same guidance? This is a target that we will work toward. Got it. Understood. Thank you. All right. The second question, Dr. Ge, would you like to maybe take that? It's about our focus of R&D and our strategy. Our early development pipeline is in ADC and small molecule. For ADC, our focus, again, is to target clinical demands and needs and try to develop differentiated products. That's always our goal and big strategy. Specifically speaking, we have several focus. The first one is, you know, just several key points.
The first one is that, as was mentioned, you know, when it comes to targets, we are going after bi-specific targets. Obviously, we are trying to find good combinations of dual targets together. When it comes to the payload, now, payload-wise, our focus right now is that we are deepening our understanding of payload. Our efforts and our experience are deeper and more strengthened too. We have put a lot of effort into new payload means to actually prepare more payloads that are replacing traditional chemotherapy or to go beyond, actually, go beyond chemotherapy. For example, we have payload or dual payload. We also have small molecule as the payload. We have different strategies and different combinations, IABC, and also, we have the BAC or protein degradation agents, etc. We definitely attach a lot of importance to developing and laying the groundwork for different types of payload.
We have expanded our ADC now to cover non-oncology areas too. I hope I answered your question. Thank you. The next question. I would like to follow up on the commercialization. After the 264 commercializing, right now, we have ends of Q3, right? Can you give us some guidelines on the sales trend? The second question is more specific. Actually, two specific questions. The first one is the bi-specific ADC project of 571 that you are in partnership with MSC with. I know that you are kicking off another trial. Can you talk about the treatment and also safety profile right now, the efficacy? Also, let's talk about the dual payload ADC. I remember last year you mentioned that this is one of your development focus. Six months have passed. Can you share with us your latest development? Thank you, Qinghui, for your question.
For the first part of the question, Mr. Ding, can you take that? The second question for our bi-specific ADC, Dr. Jin is going to take that. For dual payload ADC, maybe Dr. Jin again or maybe Dr. Yu? Q1, Q2, Q3, we were able to record a quarter-over-quarter growth of several dozen percentage points. That's quarter-over-quarter growth. That's all for my answer. Dr. Jin, can you talk about project 571? 571, as we mentioned, this is another really, really heavyweight project that we are going to have a lot of high hopes for after 264. This is one of our blockbuster products. We learned a lot of lessons from SKB264, for example, regarding its safety profile, etc., and the kind of adverse effects that it's going to generate, right? We learned from those, and we have made some improvements on Project 571.
From some of our early days, we also realized that safety profile needs some ramp-up. The target is actually very different because after ADC, the administration dosage may not be as high as bi-specific alone. When it comes to our design, during earlier ramp-up, we actually looked at the targets. For example, CMAP target and looked at the toxicity by comparison with CMAP, bi-specific is very different. EGFR, so far, when we looked at the reaction from the patient, from the administration of the drug, I think the safety profile has been actually better than before, than traditional drugs. It's basically consistent with our expectation according to our design scheme and strategy. It's definitely very useful for a combination with PD-1 and TKI resistance. Right now, we are still going into phase II expansion study. I think everything when it comes to the performance is consistent with our expectation.
Again, EGFR, Milton, is a very, very effective indication. We also have seen some initial outcomes from patients as well. Hopefully, for phase II, we can see that it goes into more oncology indications. Hopefully, in the future, we can give you the development reports on the safety profile of this particular project. Also, another question is our dual payload ADC development progress, right? We actually have a dual payload right now in enabling study trials sort of progress. By first half, by Q1 next year, we're going to actually submit for approval. My next question is that when you look at the first half of the year, your sales expenses are relatively lower for a company that just launched their commercialization project for the first year.
As was mentioned during the previous earnings call, your parent company can give you a lot of empowerment and synergy when it comes to penetrating lower-tier cities. Can you elaborate on that? Actually, Mr. Ding mentioned that for lower-tier markets, you plan to actually use a whole basket kind of strategy when you launch the sales force into it, workforce into it. It's not like the top 100 hospitals strategy, right? Can you elaborate on how your parent company can help you to do it better? Also, PL1 and also your commercialized drugs, for sac-TMT, right now, we don't see a lot of sales performance yet. For drugs that are not so innovative or unique in the market, what is people's, how does the market perceive it? The first question, I think, Mr. Ding, because it's related to our sales and commercialization.
The synergy between us and our parent company is about market access and also commercialization channels because Kelun-Biotech, you know, we are very specific. We're very focused on oncology drugs development. For the product 140, as you've seen from our announcement, we actually commissioned it to Kelun, one of their teams, to promote it. We are participating very proactively in the medical insurance coverage of the country. Hopefully, after it got approval into the medical insurance coverage and catalog, we can quickly increase the sales volume. For this kind of oncology, for example, GI-related indication, we are going to rely on our parent company's distribution channel. For ourselves, we're going to focus on a lot of oncology indications, such as lung cancer, TNBC, and others that our 264 and 167 are focused on. Also, this year, we initiated some projects, the combotherapy of using 315 on gastric cancer.
Going forward, we believe that combotherapy, especially leveraging PD-L1 as a component, is going to generate a lot of market opportunity for us. Got it. We would like to actually switch to the online participants. Following the order of hand-raising, we're going to give the first opportunity to Wang Yan Ding. Can you hear me? Yes, we can. Good evening, Mr. Wan. Very, very happy. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to ask the first question online. We can see that a lot of MNC overseas, including MSC and also Pfizer, actually invested in some PD-1 and bi-specific assets. A lot of MNCs said that they are going to use these new assets to do combotherapy with ADC. It looks like this is the market trend going forward. Clinically speaking, how do you perceive this opportunity or trend?
So far, any kind of consideration when it comes to clinical trial design? This is the first part of my question. The second one is that Dr. Jin talked about clinical trial development. We actually have a lot of first-line trial III trials. Let me just confirm with you. Can you confirm with us that, you know, Keytruda in China, especially for wild-type lung cancer, trial, sorry, phase III progress? Can you report on that? I think I missed that part during your presentation. Got it. I think these two questions are closely related to our clinical parts, right? For example, our ADC, IOF, bi-specific. The second question is Keytruda combining, you know, with our drugs in China for wild-type lung cancer clinical trial development. Thank you for the question. The first one regarding the market trend or industry trends, yes, indeed.
We saw that large players such as MSC, Pfizer, etc., these MNC have all invested in, for example, bi-specific and other related assets for also combotherapy with ADC. You can see two things. The first one, the two reasons. The first one is because data, you know, you can see that OS with Keytruda have achieved 0.78, which is clinically meaningful, meaning that bi-specific, by comparison with monotherapy of PD-L1, I mean, is actually more effective. Also, you can see for our top two ADC with our own PD-L1 in first line has achieved 15 months, right, which goes beyond PD-1 + chemotherapy. We also have a lot of other data that supported the result, supported the conclusion that ADC, you know, using combined combotherapy is much better than using PD-L1 alone. People have high hopes for ADC combining, you know, IO bi-specific.
I think this is going to be a big trend, especially for lung cancer treatment for the coming five to six years. It's not just for lung cancer alone. I think it's going to apply to many large indications, other kinds of cancers. That is why MNCs are proactively developing groundwork for this new trend. For example, with immunotherapy, bi-specific, etc. I think going forward, we can have, we will hear a lot more about this with dual payload, with bi-specific of ADC, etc. Regarding that, we, together with MSC, are also preparing for future development. In the future, we can use combotherapy. We can use ADC pipeline together with our own pipeline. The second question, sorry, I did forget to mention this in my presentation. Actually, when it comes to first-line treatment, actually, wild-type, yes, non-small cell lung cancer is also one of our key focus as well.
We already have two projects in development. One of them has already finished the patient enrollment. This year, we can finish NDA. Also, for negative patients, we also are enrolling patients of that type. Hopefully, the enrollment has finished half already by the end of the year and maybe the beginning of next year, we can actually finish patient enrollment. Thank you. Bi-specific and also all kinds of combotherapy with ADC, I think everyone believes that there's a lot of opportunities out there. I think it's going to generate more clinical, better clinical value and data. We are still exploring, right? Is it bi-specific plus ADC or IO bi-specific plus ADC or mono-specific ADC? It depends on the combination, right? Which one actually can achieve better results? Because for ADC and even for bi-specific ADC, there are different payloads, right?
I think everyone is still exploring, doing different kinds of methods to test out the best result. We are still undecided on which combination is most suitable for which indication. It has to be determined. Next question. My question is that for 264, phase III lung cancer, right? You mentioned PD-L1 positive, PD-L1 negative lung cancer in China is now developing very fast for phase III. We also see wild-type phase III. We would like to understand the rationale behind this clinical trial design. Also, for PD-L1 negative and positive patients, I think right now the treatment coverage is really, really comprehensive. Why do we have to launch a phase III wild-type clinical trial using your own PD-L1? Sorry. Maybe I got it wrong. Let me just correct myself. It's not phase III. It's actually phase II. Thank you for the correction.
My question is that this year, apart from 264, you have other commercialization products, and their sales revenue is smaller. 264, obviously, RMB 300 million for the first half is really good. The question is that before that, do you have any limitation or constraint from your production capacity? If you had more capacity, would you say that your sales revenue could have been higher for 264? In the future, do you feel like the market has higher demand? I understand that you have two questions, right? Basically, the first one is about our two other products, commercialized products, apart from 264. Mr. Ding, maybe you can address that. The second question, the other question is about the production capacity of 264, right? Dr. Ge is going to address that. Mr. Ding? Actually, Dr. Ge is going to take both of these questions.
Let me talk about the capacity first, whether or not capacity is limiting our sales revenue. I would say that, first of all, these three commercialized products are not being limited by the capacity of production for 167 and 140. 167, right now, the sales revenue, I mean, this is not our focus yet because we are still forming our sales team and because we are not promoting this indication that much. I think that we are waiting for the right timing to do it once the combotherapy is ready. Another thing regarding 140, first of all, we are in the process of getting into the medical insurance coverage catalog. We also are collaborating with our parent company. We are commissioning our distributors to do it. This year, we're going into the catalog.
Next year, hopefully, I mean, by next year, hopefully, our 140 can increase their mass production volume once we finish all of the protocol. When it comes to capacity planning, I think overall, they are matching the sales revenue expectation. We received a lot of support as well, policy support, etc. Apart from 167, 140, 264, we have definitely backup suppliers or producers just to make sure that, you know, once anything happens, if anything happened, we still have a backup plan. Right now, we are just in the process of verification of technology transfer for our potential producers. For 140, you actually can look forward to next year once we finish getting into the medical insurance coverage. I think the sales volume will definitely explode. My next question is twofold. The first one is about policy.
As you can see, the government has given a lot of support for innovative drugs. Lately, the government also has launched a new catalog or a new draft of innovative drugs guideline as well. For this year and for 264, and also in the future, what is your strategy of going into the medical insurance catalog? How is it going to impact your product sales strategy going forward? The second question is that lately, we have heard some discussion regarding your IP disputes. Can you also address that? The first one is about policy of innovative drugs and also market access, right? Dr. Ge, Dr. Wei? Thank you. This government's new medical insurance policy is very updated. You can see that we have already studied very hard on the new policy.
This year, you can see that 121 types of products have submitted their application and declared that they want to go into that kind of new policy coverage. For our strategy, our strategy is to prioritize going into the medical insurance catalog coverage catalog because every year, in China, every province is doing their thing to push forward the implementation of the new policy. Right now, we do not have absolute certainty about the future implementation of the policy. We are now quickly following and being compliant with the policy, making sure that we are preparing ourselves to go into the medical insurance. Now, about the policy, Dr. Ge is trying to add some comments. First of all, the government has given a lot of support for innovative drugs development. That is obviously being seen.
There is not a lot of certainty or visibility about how this policy is being implemented. Hopefully, we really want to see this kind of implementation or clear interpretation and explanation of the guideline and policy come out as soon as possible so that we can have better understanding. Since last year, we already have seen more and more support from the government regarding pricing of innovative drugs and also renewal of contracts of innovative drugs, etc. These are really, really exciting good news for us. The second question, very, very specific. Thank you, David, for asking that question. That means that you really have done your research. Indeed, there are some IP disputes for several founders of this company, this biotech company. We have already initiated a lawsuit against these several founders of this particular company. We have sued them to the Sichuan Provincial High Court.
The High Court has officially accepted the lawsuit for review. At the same time, the relevant public security organs have also formally filed a case in this forum as well. Obviously, our company is the pursuant. It's not going to affect, I mean, this legal case, this lawsuit is not going to affect our operation because we are not in the faults. The details of this lawsuit is confidential. Forgive me for not being able to disclose more information. Thank you for allowing me to ask my next question. The first one is about HR positive and HER2 -negative breast cancer. I would like to ask about this clinical trial. Actually, some of your peers have tried that, but the trials have failed. Do you think, I mean, what's your expectation?
What do you think, what kind of data do you think can be generated that can be competitive enough in the market? You know, why do you think this kind of clinical trial can help you to generate the targeted OS to make it more significant and meaningful? This question is about our second-line lung cancer phase III clinical trial. Dr. Jin, would you like to take that? As was mentioned in my presentation, this year in ESMO, we probably will have two phase III data readouts. As we mentioned, Dr. Jin also mentioned this. Based on our interim results, we haven't published it, but we already submitted CDE. Everything is going really well. It has progressed really smoothly. What kind of standards should we be looking at, right? For lung cancer, everyone's looking for OS, right? OS is one key performance target because our OS.
Right now is, on average, really low. People really value and prioritize extending the OS, whether or not this drug can stand up. PFS is not enough. You need to extend the OS. In ESMO this year, hopefully for our third line, together with combo therapy, we have achieved already very good results. We have already achieved 0.4 +, that kind of result. Also, for our third line, hopefully that kind of result can be represented in our second line, you know, phase III trials too. You can look forward to our data readout. For breast cancer, especially for HR positive , HER2 -negative, typically OS is very long. You have to have long enough follow-ups to see OS results. From early data readouts, you can already see that TNBC OS is actually, even though the OS is shorter, we still see very good results.
We already see that overall, I would say that for our TROP-2 ADC in lung cancer, based on published data, OS definitely is very obviously better than others. We definitely look forward to our upcoming reports and publications for our large scale phase III trial results. We believe that you can expect to see a very good OS improvement. Got it. Thank you.

Hi, Huang Yang from JP Morgan. I would like to ask a question regarding lung cancer. You already have the third line PFS ratio and OS, you know, both of them are really good. Would it be difficult to actually replicate that in second line? Obviously you can beat standard care, but it would be more challenging for it to actually deliver the same kind of results in second line compared to third line, right? The PFS and OS, right? Typically, they are higher than third line. Dr. Jin? Usually, yes, that's the case. For second line, you can see the data, I mean, you can see public data, right? The control group is 14 months, and the experiment group is 17 months. Also, the PFS is 0.8. The control group is actually 14 months, very, very long.
In order to improve that, I mean, go higher than that is actually very high, very challenging. That doesn't mean it's impossible. If you look at BS8201, HER2 ADC, I mean, the result is very good. Even for a second line, first line, they still generate very good OS ratio. Also for Johnson's combo therapy, in second line and first line, they see at least 12 months for the OS. You can see that even though it's challenging, if the drug, you know, mechanism, MOA, et cetera, I mean, everything hits the mark, very innovative, very differentiated, we believe that there's still a chance for drugs to generate better OS. I think for us, on data medicine and also for BMJ, we already published our EGFR, miltin type, you know, our resistance patients, and also for our MOA, you know, it's actually pretty good for this type of patient group.
We look forward to present the phase III results on ESMO this year.
[Foreign language]
Now my next question is that you mentioned you have three first line implications, you know, that you are going to submit NDA for. That includes two lung cancers. Next year, are you going to have data readouts for pancreatic cancer? If so, do you think that, actually, lung cancer. Next year, do you think you're going to have maybe three lung cancer indications?
[Foreign Language]
Dr. Jin, the question is about our first line clinical trials and also data readout kind of timeline.
As I mentioned in my presentation, in TPS larger than one, wild type EGFR, sorry, non-small cell lung cancer, I think we can expect NDA. If everything goes well next year, maybe we can catch the timeline to present the results. For first line TNBC and also first line non-small cell lung cancer, maybe later. Next year in ESMO, we can present the data results.
Obviously, their event research, I think they should have been able to present the data readout end of this year. I think it got pushed to next year, maybe later. I think that Dato also has several studies. I think they have already been doing it for quite a while in first line. The difference is that, first of all, they actually use combo therapy with Pembro and also Dura. They use chemotherapy as part of the combo components. For us, we just target the positive patient group, which is to do without chemotherapy as a treatment. We can actually compare with the combo therapy with Pembro. For us.
Our combo therapy with PD-L1 in early stages, the results were quite good. It's ADC plus PD-L1. Our PFS is pretty good. Yasin, you have another question? Yep, just a tiny question. For first line TNBC, you know, I think it's monotherapy, but MSC is a combo therapy with Keytruda. Your domestic and international treatment are different. Do you think there are conflicts? They will generate conflicts. In the future, will you consider using combo therapy for first line TNBC? This is a very good question. You know, our targeting the domestic market, we mainly use monotherapy for PD-L1 negative patient groups by comparison with chemotherapy. We can finish patient enrollment by September this year. Hopefully, by the beginning of next year, we can finish NDA and we can get approval, which is way earlier than the global development. For MSC, obviously, global is their main market.
In the beginning, we actually have explored both monotherapy and also combo therapy. Hopefully, combo therapy can improve our PFS and OS. That's why MSC has launched a III-B study. Basically, this is a three-line study including Keytruda, et cetera, and also by comparison with chemotherapy to see if they can extend the PFS and OS. Obviously, our ultimate data will be shared with MSC and also MSC's global trial. We will need to enroll Chinese patients for their phase III too. We can further look at the data to see, you know, whether or not combo therapy is actually stronger and better than monotherapy. Regardless, China, because we already are in the process of doing the NDA, I think it's actually earlier and sooner than the global results. I think we have already gone beyond the hour. I think we will have time for only one last question.
I think Li Luo from the line, from online.

Great. Thank you for taking my question. Hi, I am from Guoyang, Mingsheng. My question is for SKB571, this bi-specific ADC. In the future, if you are trying to target indications, what are the indications that you are going to target at? Because based on our current research, Johnson's bi-specific, they are looking at GI-related oncology, for example, really large colorectal, etc., and digestive tract tumors. There is a lot of possibility of developing drug resistance to this kind of bi-specific drugs. When we look at first line of colorectal cancer, there are chemotherapy already, and there are some treatments that have actually higher OS. The second question is what is your design advantages by comparison with Johnson's bi-specific drugs? What is your differentiation and improvement on that? What is the timeline of the development?
Do you think this year we will be able to go into the phase III trial? Thank you for the question. For our bi-specific drug and also the mechanism and also the structure of the target, unfortunately, we cannot disclose information. This obviously is very confidential. If you look at our IP, the patent, it's definitely more than just one single traditional structure. There have been a lot of rumors right now in the market. I think maybe Dr. Jin can talk about the pipeline planning and timeline. Now, about 571, our positioning is not in late line because ADC in late line treatment is not a good market. We definitely need to go into early line treatment. For example, first line and even in early lines. The difference between 571 with 264 is that we learned a lot from the development of 264.
We are able to improve the safety profile of this 571. As a result, it really benefits from combining with TKI, PD-1, or chemotherapy. The results by comparison with 264, it will be more suitable for combo therapy with our bi-specific and TKI and chemotherapy, PD-L1. That is why we can really prepare for first line treatment. By comparison with Aventa, which is made by Johnson, our safety profile and also our toxicity, I think both of these, especially the safety profile, is better than Aventa. When it comes to indication, we're going to focus on non-small cell lung cancer. I mean, lung cancer, there are a lot of drugs in the market, but there are still a lot of unmet needs that we can tackle. There is a lot of potential still for lung cancer as well.
For example, we can actually have more targeted patients and early line treatment, early intervention, combo therapy, et cetera. Lung cancer will still be one of our biggest indications to target. Apart from lung cancer, we also are going to build some differentiation. For example, 264, we really did not focus on GI. We focus on lung cancer, breast cancer. Going forward, I think for 571, we can look at early line treatments of other oncology, such as UI, et cetera. As we mentioned, we have already entered phase II, and we are going to explore, for example, monotherapy, combo therapy. Hopefully, with 2 64's experience, we can speed up the process of developing 571. Very clear. Thank you.
Got it. I think I know a lot of you still have questions that you want to ask, but unfortunately, we are running out of time. We will continue answering your questions offline. We are kicking off the interim results roadshow across different cities. If you're interested, please make sure you get in touch. Thank you so much for joining tonight's Interim Results Presentation Meeting. We definitely are grateful for your support. We will continue to develop and uphold our mission and vision so that we can continue to innovate. Every year or every six months, we can actually publish new developments that are exciting for you all. Dr. Jin, would you like to say some final words? That's all. Thank you. Thank you so much for joining.
