#ES­MO20: Seat­tle Ge­net­ics eyes 4th ap­proval with new da­ta in a crowd­ed field

Does Seat­tle Ge­net­ics have an­oth­er ap­proval on its hands?

The last 12 months, not so great for the world, has been great for Seat­tle Ge­net­ics.

And on Mon­day at ES­MO, the com­pa­ny and their part­ners at Gen­mab un­veiled the da­ta be­hind the ADC it hopes will pro­vide its next ma­jor FDA ap­proval.
