On April 28, People's Daily Health Client and Health Times published a series of honorary lists including the 13th Health China Forum · Breakthrough New Drug of the Year, and the first Chinese original third-generation EGFR-TKI innovative drug Ameile (Almonertinib Mesilate Tablets) independently developed by Jiangsu Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd.

The award is finally determined by an advisory committee composed of experts and scholars in the field, such as policy experts, research institutes and professional associations, in line with the principle of "fairness, impartiality and openness", based on clinical effects and other indicators, and after a number of procedures including preliminary listing, advisory opinion solicitation and peer review.
