Q: When will the new antibody drug hit the market?
We are pushing for the market launch as early as possible. But several procedures are needed.
A treatment guideline must be formulated. The conditions for storage, shipping and production must also be met. This process may take a few days or a few weeks.
It takes about two to three months to finish production after we receive an order. So we are also pushing for a mechanism like pre-purchase or reserve.
