Cumberland Pharmaceuticals (CPIX) and SciClone Pharmaceuticals announced that Vibativ® (telavancin) injection has received NMPA marketing approval in China. Vibativ is an FDA-approved injectable antibiotic used to treat hospital-acquired pneumonia and complicated skin infections, including those caused by drug-resistant bacteria.
The approval enables SciClone to exclusively register, promote, and distribute Vibativ in China, the world's second-largest market. The companies plan to launch the product later this year. Two published studies involving over 39,000 clinical isolates demonstrate that Vibativ maintains its potency against difficult-to-treat and multidrug-resistant bacteria, even after a decade since its introduction.
Vibativ has shown significantly higher cure rates compared to vancomycin in certain pneumonia cases and doesn't require therapeutic drug monitoring. A recent study also suggested the drug's safety in children aged 2-17 years.

The trial showed significant positive outcomes: The high-dose group demonstrated a 3.3% overall improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), with a 1.8% increase compared to a 1.5% decline in the placebo group. When compared to natural history controls, the difference was even more pronounced, showing a 5.4% overall improvement versus a 3.6% decline in controls.
