The year 2025 marks a special milestone in the 10-year journey of the method using the active ingredient dapagliflozin, researched and produced by AstraZeneca, in the Vietnamese market. This therapy continues to be approved by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) for a new indication in the treatment of chronic kidney disease in addition to the two groups of type 2 diabetes and heart failure. (1) This medical advancement continues to affirm the outstanding value of a treatment solution capable of effectively affecting three chronic diseases that have a major impact on public health, including diabetes, heart failure and chronic kidney disease.
According to medical experts, cardiovascular - renal - metabolic diseases are closely related to each other, often exist simultaneously and can aggravate the remaining pathological condition. Therefore, the treatment of chronic kidney disease will not be for a single disease but requires simultaneous treatment and protection of all three diseases. Therefore, this direction also opens up opportunities to comprehensively improve the health of millions of patients, contributing to reducing the burden on the country's health system.
At the workshop, Mr. Atul Tandon - General Director of Astrazeneca Vietnam shared: " AstraZeneca's mission in the field of biopharmaceuticals is driven by a passion to understand and address patient needs, discover and develop innovative treatments, and strengthen close collaboration with local partners to improve the quality of life of patients. The partnership between AstraZeneca Vietnam and FPT Long Chau is a testament to this mission, as we work together to introduce innovative treatments and bring hope to the communities we serve."
