What patent(s) protect Vyxeos in China?

Is there any Chinese competition (generics or biosimilars) if patents expire?
If relevant Chinese patents expire or are challenged, manufacturers may pursue marketing authorization for competing products. The key issue is whether any competitor is covered by the same patent claims (compound, formulation, or method-of-use), not just whether a patent date has passed.
