Overview
Tongyuankang Pharmaceutical (同源康医药) is an innovative drug developer that has built platforms for targeted small‑molecule design and screening, deuterated drug R&D, and large‑molecule immunotherapy. The company is focused on cancer treatment and anti‑cancer drug development. It recently completed a D‑round financing of nearly RMB 200 million. The round was led by Huiyu Pharmaceutical with participation from a CICC Capital‑affiliated fund, Changxing JinKong, and the Huzhou Talent Fund. KaiCheng Capital served as the company's financial advisor on the transaction. The financing supports the company's continued R&D efforts in oncology. Zhejiang Tongyuan Kang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., founded in November 2017, is an innovation-focused biopharma concentrating on anti-tumor small-molecule Best-in-class/First-in-class drug development with R&D centers in Changxing, Zhengzhou and Shanghai. The company has built a 6,000 sqm new-drug R&D center in Changxing and a global-caliber R&D and management team led by Dr. Wu Yusheng, including national- and provincial-level experts, over ten returnee PhDs and about ten clinical experts. Within roughly 30 months the team completed two Class 1 IND filings and initiated Phase I trials; its core candidate TY9591, positioned against osimertinib, has shown superior preclinical and early clinical efficacy and safety and is being developed for brain-metastasis indications. Two additional novel-target programs are expected to file INDs in China and the U.S. soon, and multiple international-leading small-molecule programs are in preclinical/clinical preparation. The company plans to advance late-stage clinical development and expand manufacturing capability to support global development and future commercialization.
