US-China tensions threaten to ensnare additional Chinese biopharma contractors

04 Apr 2024
In recent weeks, proposed federal legislation has forced US drugmakers to rethink their relationship with a Chinese company that’s a staple in drug development. Now, the industry is starting to wake up to the potential for restrictions on additional Chinese biotech contractors. The Biosecure Act threatens to blacklist WuXi AppTec and other “companies of concern” from doing business in the US. But less known is that the bill could expand to target additional Chinese firms, including contractors like Beijing-headquartered Pharmaron, which is the second-biggest contract research organization after WuXi; and synthetic DNA company GenScript, whose custom manufacturing services are based in Nanjing, China.
