HARBIN, China, May 21 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- China Sky One Medical, Inc. ("China Sky One Medical" or "the Company") (Nasdaq: CSKI), a leading fully integrated pharmaceutical company in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), today announced that it signed an agreement with Taiwan Golden Biotechnology Corporation to begin cooperating on the development of a new anti-cancer drug called Antroquinonol.

Through sophisticated extraction techniques, Golden Biotechnology Corporation acquired pure Antroquinonol, which has been granted patents in 60 countries.
