In the field of breast cancer, results from 19 studies evaluating the company’s innovative drugs—pyrotinib, dalpiciclib, camrelizumab, apatinib, adebrelimab, Trastuzumab rezetecan (SHR-A1811), and SHR-2017, either in combination with each other or with chemotherapies, were presented at ASCO 2025. Notably, 7 studies involving pyrotinib and 6 studies involving dalpiciclib were selected, with both agents consistently demonstrating promising efficacy, reinforcing their established roles in breast cancer treatment. Furthermore, studies evaluating SHR-A1811 and adebrelimab were selected for rapid oral presentations, attracting considerable attention from the industry.
In the field of gastrointestinal cancers, drugs such as camrelizumab, apatinib, adebrelimab, and SHR-8068 were featured in a total of 30 accepted studies. Notably, camrelizumab was included in 21 of these studies, demonstrating its broad therapeutic profile and potential while reinforcing its position as a key focus at ASCO. This further solidifies the achievements of China-developed PD-1 inhibitors on the global stage.
