Times Square today in celebration of its initial public offering
(IPO) on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
“Today marks an important milestone for BeyondSpring, as we are

affordable treatments available for patients all over the world,”
said Lan Huang, Ph.D., Co-Founder, Chairman & CEO,
BeyondSpring. “BeyondSpring’s innovative approach to both the
science and business of immuno-oncology raises the bar for the
biopharma industry. Plinabulin’s well-defined mechanism of action
is both promising and desirable as we progress through clinic and
move closer to bringing it to market.”
“Innovation has always been a vital part of Nasdaq’s heritage,

Nasdaq team and resources as BeyondSpring continues to develop

BeyondSpring’s lead asset, Plinabulin, is a novel small molecule
that has a well-defined mechanism of action, which enables it to
alter the tumor micro-environment while inducing dendritic cell
maturation and T-cell activation, contributing to Plinabulin's
anti-cancer efficacies. It can also reduce severe Neutropenia, a
common and potentially life-threatening adverse effect of
chemotherapy agents.
BeyondSpring has a robust pipeline from internal development and
from collaboration with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center
and University of Washington. The Company’s experienced management
team has also brought a combined 30+ drugs to market.
