Cipla said that it has entered into an exclusive license and supply agreement with Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co. for Rolditamig Deuderuxtecan, a potential best-in-class HER2 bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (ADC).

Under this agreement, Cipla will receive exclusive rights to develop and commercialise Rolditamig Deuderuxtecan, also known as TQB2102, in India, South Africa and 5 other emerging markets.

Cipla will be responsible for local clinical development, regulatory activities, and commercialisation in the licensed territories, while CTTQ will continue to manufacture and supply TQB2102.

Through our partnership with SBP Group and CTTQ, we aim to accelerate development and, subject to regulatory approvals, expand access to this innovative treatment across licensed territories.
