Kintor Pharma (开拓药业) Pre-IPO - Updates from the post hearing prospectus and efficacy of reference products

Kintor was founded by Chinese academic researchers returning from overseas. It has two main drugs, proxalutamide which targets prostate cancer and breast cancer, and pyrilutamide which targets androgenic alopecia.

The most advanced drug candidate, proxalutamide, entered into Phase III clinical trial and the NDA for mCRPC indication could be submitted as early as 2020 based on interim results. Having said that the clinical trial for TNBC is still in the early stage of development. Pyrilutamide which treats hair loss (androgenic alopecia) is still years away from commercialization. We are of the view that competition for the targeted indication for androgenic alopecia is intense with many generics of early generation drugs available in the market. The company is backed by reputable domestic investors. In terms of management experience, the key founder has academic experiences in cancer research but lacks track records in bringing drug candidates from pre-clinical research to commercialization.

In this note, we will look at progress of the company's clinical trial in the post hearing prospectus. We also provide a reference to the benchmark product's clinical trial results and recap our valuation.
