In a statement, the company said InfuSMART is a technology in which oncology products were developed in a ready-to-administer bag. One shall note that, until now, compounding of oncology products was done at compounding centers or compounded in hospital pharmacies

Sun Pharma received regulatory approval to produce Gemcitabine InfuSMART in eight key SKUs. Over the next few months, Sun Pharma will launch Gemcitabine InfuSMART across Netherlands, Britain, Spain, Germany, Italy and France.

Reportedly, the Gemcitabine InfuSmart RTA infusion bag is developed at Sun Pharma's R&D centre in India. The company said that this was a part its business strategy to build a meaningful presence globally.

According to WHO, approximately 14 million new cases of cancer and 8.2 million cancer related deaths in 2012 were identified.

Moving on to the news from the steel sector. According to a leading financial daily, Tata Steel announced that it was exploring a joint venture with its German competitor ThyssenKrupp AG. The company has entered into discussions with strategic collaborations through a potential partnership.

Reportedly, after Brexit, Tata Steel may have put on hold the sale of UK steel units. The company's board decided to discover other alternatives including joint venture with the German giant.

Further, Tata Steel has said it was losing about US$ 1.3 million a day in Britain amid high costs and a glut of cheap Chinese steel in the global market. In our recent edition of The 5 Minute WrapUp we have have addressed the issues related to Chinese steel production.

Tata Steel's British assets include a steel plant in Port Talbot, Wales, that employs 4,000 people.

Moreover, in a bid to avert meltdown in the sector, ministers in UK promised to take a stake of up to a 25% in Tata Steel UK. They have also offered to change the law to cut the liabilities of the British Steel Pension Scheme, which has an estimated deficit of Euro 700 m.

As per the reports, it is likely that Tata Steel will consolidate its Ijumuiden plant in the Netherlands. Ijmuiden and ThyssenKrupp are competitors and a consolidation in a weak European market would make sense for both the entities.

Tata Steel was trading up by 1.9% while writing.
