“This collaboration is highly aligned with our international development strategy and is expected to generate sustainable value and long-term returns,” said Dr. Pangke Yan, chief executive officer of Haisco, “By partnering with a global biopharmaceutical leader such as Lilly, Haisco aims to accelerate the global development of innovative therapies and deliver high-quality treatment options to patients worldwide.”<\/p>\n

As a benchmark enterprise in China’s innovative pharmaceutical sector, Haisco adheres to a core strategy of “innovation-driven growth and global expansion.” The company has established a diversified R&D pipeline encompassing small-molecule innovative drugs, biologics, and high-end generics. Haisco is actively advancing more than 50 R&D programs across key therapeutic areas including pain management, oncology, respiratory diseases, autoimmune disorders, metabolic diseases, and central nervous system disorders; notably, over 10 of these programs have entered pivotal clinical stages. The company has maintained a strong commitment to R&D, with investment exceeding 15% of revenue in each of the past three years. It has established major R&D centers in Chengdu, Shanghai, and Silicon Valley, supported by a research team with extensive global experience, forming an integrated innovation system combining in-house capabilities and external collaboration.<\/p>\n
