Why an Oral Solution Matters
- Dysphagia‑Friendly – Stroke patients often lose the ability to swallow tablets or capsules. An aqueous solution eliminates the risk of aspiration and ensures accurate dosing.
- Rapid Onset – Liquid formulations can be absorbed more quickly than solid forms, a critical advantage in the narrow therapeutic window of acute ischemic stroke.
- Simplified Administration – Caregivers can deliver the medication via syringe or feeding tube without the need for tablet crushing or compounding.
Market & Clinical Impact
- Unmet Need – In China, > 2 million new ischemic‑stroke cases are reported annually; roughly 30 % present with swallowing difficulties that limit conventional oral therapy.
- Revenue Potential – Assuming a 10 % market capture of the dysphagic stroke segment (≈ 600,000 patients) at an average price of CNY 12,000 per treatment course, BIOS2242 could generate ≈ CNY 7.2 billion (~US$1.0 billion) in annual sales once fully commercialized.
- Strategic Fit – The approval strengthens Hangzhou Bio‑Sincerity’s pipeline in neuro‑vascular therapeutics and positions the company for future Phase III expansion and potential global partnership discussions.
