China Sky One Medical (AMEX: CSY) reported that it has 11 new drugs in clinical trials,
seven of them administered by injection. The clinical trials are expected to be
underway for six months. Assuming the trials are successful, China Sky One
projects it will submit the drugs for SFDA approval in early 2009.
China
Sky One has traditionally emphasized externally administered products (patches
and ointments), but it has been building up its product portfolio by acquiring
other companies.
So far in 2008, China Sky One has bought Heilongjiang
Tianlong Pharmaceutical (price: $8.3 million) and Peng Lai Jin Chuang Company
(price: $7.1 million). Heilongjiang Tianlong was responsible for the propyl
gallate injection, whose approval China Sky One announced earlier this week. It
has also previously announced that Heilongjiang Tianlong completed the R&D
work on eight other injected products.
