China offers specialist services and treatment options with their own indications and clinical requirements. Whether one of them suits a particular patient is a decision for the treating doctors.
In June 2026, China's drug regulator approved satricabtagene autoleucel, the first CAR-T cell therapy approved anywhere for a solid tumour. It is approved for a specific group of patients with advanced stomach cancer.
