Agreement with Daiichi Sankyo gives Innovent exclusive commercialization rights for the FLT3 inhibitor in China.
August 10, 2026
By: Charlie Sternberg
Innovent Biologics Inc. and Daiichi Sankyo have entered an exclusive agreement for the commercialization of Vanflyta (quizartinib) in China. Vanflyta is an oral, highly potent type II FLT3 inhibitor that targets FLT3-ITD mutations.
Under the terms of the agreement, Daiichi Sankyo will be responsible for the development, manufacturing and supply of Vanflyta while Innovent Biologics holds sole commercialization rights for Vanflyta in China, leading market promotion.
Vanflyta was approved in China in June 2026 for use in combination with standard cytarabine and anthracycline induction and cytarabine consolidation, and as maintenance monotherapy following consolidation chemotherapy, for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is FLT3-ITD positive as detected by an adequate validated diagnostic test, based on the results from the QuANTUM-First trial.
“This collaboration with Daiichi Sankyo represents an exciting milestone for our hematology franchise,” said Vivian Zhang, Executive Director, Chief Commercial Officer, Innovent Biologics.
Zhang believes the addition of VANFLYTA to its portfolio will further enhance the company’s synergistic offerings. Vanflyta (quizartinib) will be the 20th product in Innovent’s commercialized product portfolio.
“The partnership with Innovent Biologics reflects our commitment to delivering innovation to patients in China,” said Michio Hayashi, China President, Daiichi Sankyo. “By combining our research and development capabilities with Innovent’s commercial capabilities in China, we believe this collaboration can accelerate access to VANFLYTA for patients with newly diagnosed FLT3-ITD-positive AML and ultimately help improve outcomes in this high-risk patient population.”
Earlier this year, Pfizer Inc. and Innovent Biologics entered into a strategic global licensing and collaboration agreement for the research and development of 12 new breakthrough early-stage and de novo cancer medicines.
