Oscitinib tablets were produced and developed by AstraZeneca in 2013 and are marketed worldwide as the first targeted drug to be used to treat T790M-positive mutations after EGFR TKI therapy and brain metastases. Due to the huge cost of research and development, the price of oscitinib is very expensive after listing in China.

What is the difference between the imitation version of osimertinib and the Original British research osimertinib?

The price of oscitinib in China is 15300 a box, after joining the medical insurance reimbursement, the patient also has to pay about 5000 out of pocket, although the medical insurance has reimbursed most of the cost, but the cost of self-payment is not affordable to the average working family.

Therefore, more and more patients are choosing generic drugs.

As a listed state-owned enterprise, Bengal Bikang Enterprise has developed the world's first imitation of oscitinib, although the price is lower than the price after the domestic medical insurance reimbursement, but as a long-term targeted drug, the price is still a certain burden on patients.

Compared with Bengal Bikang enterprises, Bangladesh Everest Company because of the late listing time, in order to quickly seize the market, the price is set to be much closer to the people, and according to most of the patients who have taken it, the effect of Osetinib in Bangladesh is the closest to the original drug.

Authoritative data :

FLAURA Phase III clinical trials: For patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations, the first-line regimen of using osimertinib was 54% longer than using standard therapy (erlotinib or gefitinib), without disease exacerbation. (September 18 vs. February 10)

Kangyitu transnational medical tips:

Lung cancer drugs that are not on fire, a few key points are written down:

1. Before July 2032 (patent protection), there are only AstraZeneca original research drugs in China, with a box price of about 50,000, 80mg * 30 tablets, and a monthly dosage.

2. Please take the legal route to buy generic drugs, do not believe in purchasing.

3 Whether it is original research or imitation, consult a doctor before taking the drug, detect the mutated gene, and do not use the drug privately.
