How much does a box of Pimitespib cost now in 2026?

Pimitespib is a targeted therapy drug mainly used to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). At present, the original drug of pimetibi has not yet been launched in the Chinese market, so the domestic price and medical insurance reimbursement information are not yet known. For many patients, the price of pimetibib is an important consideration, especially in foreign markets where the drug is relatively expensive.

In Japan, the price of the original drug of Pimitibi (40mg*40 tablets) is about RMB 19,000. This price may fluctuate due to exchange rate fluctuations. In addition, there is currently no generic version of pimotebi, which leaves patients with the only choice of the original drug when purchasing it abroad. The price of original drugs is usually higher, especially imported drugs, which often include transportation, customs duties and other expenses. Therefore, patients need to pay higher costs, especially those who require long-term medication, and may face a greater financial burden.

As the patent period of the drug expires and generic drugs become available, the price of pimetibib is likely to decline. Especially after the emergence of generic drugs in the Chinese market, price competitiveness will increase. Currently, pimetibib has not been approved in China, so its price and medical insurance policy have not yet been determined. Based on past pricing strategies for similar drugs, pimotebib may enter the Chinese market in the next few years, and a reasonable price system will be developed based on market demand, competitiveness and import policies.

For domestic patients, although it is currently not possible to purchase pimetibib directly, it can be purchased through overseas drug purchasing platforms or international drug agents. In any case, the price of a drug is always one of the factors that patients and medical staff need to consider when choosing treatment, especially in the case of a high-priced drug like pimetibib. When selecting drugs, patients should also consider factors such as therapeutic effects and drug side effects to ensure the safety and effectiveness of treatment.
