Five CEOs from leading pharmaceutical companies shared the strategies behind their flagship drugs’ success at a unique 60-minute presentation. Hit News highlights K-CAB’s remarkable journey under the leadership of CEO Dalwon 슬롯사이트 꽁머니.

One of the standout drugs featured at the event was K-CAB (active ingredient: tegoprazan), launched by HK inno.N in 2019. The drug has achieved cumulative sales of approximately 0 million, with annual sales of million in the competitive South Korean market. This success positions K-CAB as a true blockbuster drug, a feat rarely achieved by homegrown pharmaceuticals. CEO Dalwon 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 played a pivotal role in this achievement.

슬롯사이트 꽁머니 recounted, “In March 2019, K-CAB recorded .2 million in sales. By October 2021, monthly sales exceeded million, and annual sales surpassed million. Based on last year’s performance, annual sales are estimated at 7 million. I often wonder if we’ll ever see a drug like this again.”

How did the K-CAB success story begin? CEO 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 reflected:

K-CAB’s journey started with an unexpected opportunity. “K-CAB was originally a drug candidate developed by Pfizer,” 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 explained. “After Pfizer closed its Nagoya research facility, Daiwa Securities acquired its assets and reestablished it as RaQualia, a company specializing in gastrointestinal drug development. RaQualia then approached us with a proposal.”

At the same time, CJ CheilJedang had other offers, including one from Dr. Masahiro Ito of Arigen Pharma, who proposed developing a new proton pump inhibitor (PPI) drug. 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 noted, “PPIs were lucrative and easy to develop, but we were determined to focus on creating a first-in-class drug.”

This led to CJ CheilJedang licensing RaQualia’s acid pump antagonist, RQ-4, in 2010. Over the next few years, CJ CheilJedang conducted toxicity tests, secured Phase 1 clinical trial approvals in 2011, and achieved Phase 3 approval by 2014. These milestones laid the groundwork for 슬롯사이트 꽁머니’s emergence as a market leader.

When did K-CAB face its most significant challenges? CEO 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 pointed to 2014, during the spin-off of CJ Healthcare from CJ CheilJedang. “CheilJedang operates its businesses separately by divisions, such as food and meat processing. Initially, the spin-off was incredibly exciting for us,” he recalled.

“As the founding 슬롯사이트 꽁머니, I traveled across the country, sharing my vision with employees, telling them we could create something unique. However, I gradually realized there were plans underway to sell the company. Even now, I shudder at the thought of that period,” he added.

In 2018, Kolmar Korea acquired CJ Healthcare for approximately 0 million. Two years later, CJ Healthcare was rebranded as HK inno.N Corporation under Kolmar Korea’s ownership.

슬롯사이트 꽁머니 reflected, “Even during this tumultuous time, K-CAB was steadily progressing. We embraced a ‘live to die, die to live’ mindset to overcome the challenges. Ultimately, we persevered through every obstacle and successfully launched K-CAB in 2019.”

CEO 슬롯사이트 꽁머니 elaborated on the challenges faced during the development of P-CAB (potassium-competitive acid blocker) therapies, highlighting the unmet medical needs that emerged as limitations of PPI (proton pump inhibitor) therapies became apparent. “PPIs had a slower onset of action and were less effective at managing nighttime symptoms, creating growing demand for alternatives. This is why major global pharmaceutical companies aggressively pursued P-CAB development,” he explained.

“슬롯사이트 꽁머니 didn’t come easily,” he emphasized. “Its development was extremely challenging. At the time, we identified a paradigm shift from third-generation acid-suppressing PPIs to the P-CAB era, and we focused on this transition.”

He also pointed out the advantages of P-CAB therapies compared to PPIs: “PPIs have a slower onset of action and must be taken before meals due to their short half-life. In contrast, P-CAB drugs start working within an hour, can be taken regardless of meal timing, and, with their longer half-life, require only one dose per day.”

슬롯사이트 꽁머니 outlined his vision for K-CAB’s future. “Gastrointestinal drugs like GSK’s Tagamet and Zantac revolutionized the industry, generating billions in sales and transforming their companies into global giants,” he said.

He drew an analogy to illustrate the revenue potential of such drugs. “In 1978, a bowl of jjajangmyeon cost >623_word_end<.03, while a single dose of Tagamet was >623_word_end<.17. By 1982, Zantac was >623_word_end<.72 per dose compared to jjajangmyeon at >623_word_end<.27. These drugs were game-changers.”

슬롯사이트 꽁머니 concluded, “Our goal is to achieve .4 billion in global sales with K-CAB, cementing our place as a major global pharmaceutical company.”
