On July 20, 2021, the Second International Commercial Court held a public hearing on a dispute over the liability for infringing upon company interests between Plaintiff Beta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. and Defendant Beta Pharma, Inc., Don Xiaodong Zhang, and Beta Pharma (SHANGHAI), Inc..

It is a first-instance international commercial case arising from R&D in pharmaceuticals and international investment. Due to its influence and typical significance, the Supreme People's Court considered the case appropriate to be tried by the CICC, with a ruling that the case should be heard by the Second International Commercial Court.

The case was heard by a five-judge panel, including Judge Shen Hongyu, Judge Zhu Li, Judge Ren Xuefeng, Judge Yu Xiaohan, and Judge Guo Zaiyu. The decision will be rendered at a later date.
