Zhiyi Biotech, founded in 2013,We are a pioneer and leading enterprise in the field of second-generation LBP in China. By virtue of our core technological breakthroughs and rapid clinical advancement, we have positioned ourselves among the first tier of global LBP R&D. Our Core Product SK08 and key product SK10 have achieved multiple industry-defining milestones, establishing our first-mover and leadership advantages.
As a benchmark in China’s second-generation LBP field, SK08 has delivered multiple groundbreaking achievements. According to Frost & Sullivan, SK08 is the first LBP to obtain registrational clinical trial approvals from both the NMPA and the U.S. FDA. SK08 is currently in the Phase III clinical trial for IBS-D, making it the only late-stage clinical biological drug candidate in the global IBS-D field, as of the Latest Practicable Date.
SK08 has also received NMPA approval for the clinical trial targeting pediatric rotavirus diarrhea, representing a major breakthrough for LBP in pediatric medicine in China and further expanding the clinical application scope of LBP. As of the Latest Practicable Date, SK08 is the only clinical-stage LBP candidate targeting pediatric rotavirus diarrhea globally. Concurrently, SK08 was the first LBP in China approved to conduct registrational clinical trial in oncology patients. The strain safety evaluation study of SK08 was recognized as a classic research work in NGP on Frontiers, and SK08 was highlighted as a representative LBP candidate on Nature Microbiology, thereby fully validating our world-class R&D capabilities and Core Product competitiveness.
In addition, we were also the first company in China to advance an inactivated second-generation LBP into clinical development, and our key product SK10 has achieved multiple breakthroughs. It was the first LBP using Bacteroides fragilis to receive FDA clearance for clinical trials in the U.S., and also the world’s first FDA clearance for an LBP targeting CID. SK10 has successfully completed its Phase I clinical trial in the U.S., demonstrating our ability to conduct global R&D and navigate complex regulatory pathways.
Our Core R&D team has led and participated in six national and provincial major research projects, receiving broad recognition from the industry and authoritative institutions for our technological capabilities. Specifically, the SK08 project has been supported by key national and provincial research programs, including the National High-tech R&D Program of China, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the Guangdong Provincial Major Special Program for New Drug Innovation and Development . In addition, we have been honored with several prestigious awards, including the Guangdong Provincial “Specialized, Refined, Distinctive and Innovative Small and Medium-sized Enterprise” and the Guangzhou Innovation Leadership Team , fully demonstrating our outstanding technological innovation capabilities and industry influence.
