China National Pharmaceutical Group Corporation (CNPGC), commonly referred to as Sinopharm, is a Chinese state-owned enterprise. The corporation was the indirect major shareholder of publicly traded companies Sinopharm Group (SEHK: 1099, via a 51–49 joint venture, Sinopharm Industrial Investment, with Fosun Pharmaceutical), China Traditional Chinese Medicine (SEHK: 570, mostly via Sinopharm Group Hongkong Co., Ltd.).[4] Shanghai Shyndec Pharmaceutical (SSE: 600420, via a wholly owned research institute based in Shanghai) and Beijing Tiantan Biological Products (SSE: 600161, via China National Biotec Group).
China National Pharmaceutical Group was supervised by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council.[5]
Sinopharm was ranked 205th in 2016 Fortune Global 500 list.[6]
History
China National Pharmaceutical Group Corporation (Chinese: 中国医药集团总公司) was founded on November 26, 1998, as a holding company for China National Pharmaceutical Corporation, China National Pharmaceutical Industry Corporation (Chinese: 中国医药工业公司), China National Pharmaceutical Foreign Trade Corp. (Chinese: 中国医药对外贸易公司) and China National Medical Device (Chinese: 中国医疗器械工业公司). In 2009 it was merged with China National Biotec Group (Chinese: 中国生物技术集团公司).
Its subsidiary Wuhan Institute of Biological Products was fined for selling 400,520 ineffective DPT vaccines in November 2017.[7]
COVID-19 vaccine
Sinopharm BBIBP-CorV, also known as the Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine,[8] is one of two inactivated virus COVID-19 vaccines developed by Sinopharm. It completed Phase III trials in Argentina, Bahrain, Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, Peru, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with over 60,000 participants.[9] BBIBP-CorV shares similar technology with CoronaVac and BBV152, other inactivated virus vaccines for COVID-19.[10]
Peer-reviewed results published in JAMA of Phase III trials in United Arab Emirates and Bahrain showed BBIBP-CorV 78.1% effective against symptomatic cases and 100% against severe cases (21 cases in vaccinated group vs. 95 cases in placebo group).[11] In December 2020, the UAE previously announced interim results showing 86% efficacy.[12] While mRNA vaccines like the Pfizer–BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine and mRNA-1273 showed higher efficacy of over 90%, those present distribution challenges for some nations as they require deep-freeze facilities and trucks. BIBP-CorV could be transported and stored at normal refrigerated temperatures.[13]
BBIBP-CorV is being used in vaccination campaigns by certain countries in Asia,[14][15][16] Africa,[17][18][19] South America,[20][21][22] and Europe.[23][24][25] Sinopharm expects to produce one billion doses of BBIBP-CorV in 2021.[26] On 7 May 2021, the World Health Organization approved the vaccine for use in COVAX.[15][27]
The other inactivated virus COVID-19 vaccine developed by Sinopharm is WIBP-CorV.
