Yingli Pharma’s Linperlislib Receives Priority Review Status for Lymphoma Treatments

US-based Yingli Pharma, a company dedicated to developing drugs for both the Chinese and US markets, has announced that its drug linperlislib has been granted priority review status by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) who have received at least two systemic treatments in the past, and adult patients with recurrent and/or refractory peripheral T/NK cell lymphoma who have received first-line sufficient treatment in the past. The priority review status is attributed to the drug being “eligible for conditional approval”.
