Third Quarter 2024 Business Highlights and Upcoming Milestones

Commercial-Stage Updates

  • ETUARY (Pirfenidone) sales update: For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, Gyre Pharmaceuticals, Gyre’s majority indirectly owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), generated $25.3 million in sales of ETUARY.

  • Avatrombopag: In June 2024, Gyre Pharmaceuticals received approval from China’s National Medical Products Administration (“NMPA”) for avatrombopag maleate tablets for the treatment of thrombocytopenia associated with chronic liver disease (“CLD”) in adult patients undergoing elective diagnostics procedures or therapy. This approval expands Gyre’s rare disease product lines and provides a treatment option for a common and potentially life-threatening hematologic complication in patients with CLD. Gyre anticipates launching avatrombopag in the PRC in the first half of 2025 and plans to leverage its existing extensive sales and marketing platform.

  • Nintedanib: Gyre Pharmaceuticals is planning to start commercializing nintedanib, a small-molecule drug for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis ("IPF"), which was acquired from Jiangsu Wangao Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., in the PRC in 2025. Nintedanib is the other product approved for the treatment of IPF, which is currently approved globally for the treatment of IPF. Nintedanib is expected to provide patients more choices and benefits, and further enhance Gyre Pharmaceuticals’ leading position in the pulmonary fibrosis market.
