No­var­tis hus­tles along an­oth­er FDA ap­pli­ca­tion for CAR-T star, tack­ling Gilead head on

Gilead like­ly won’t have DL­B­CL can­cer to it­self in the CAR-T are­na for very long.

No­var­tis put out word ear­ly Tues­day that it has added pos­i­tive 6-month da­ta to its pack­age on its CAR-T Kym­ri­ah  (ti­s­agen­le­cleu­cel) and sent it in to the FDA for their re­view on dif­fuse large B-cell lym­phoma.

We don’t know what the 6-month da­ta look like, but the phar­ma gi­ant says it will tell all at the up­com­ing ASH con­fer­ence in At­lanta in ear­ly De­cem­ber. Re­searchers have, how­ev­er, spelled out a suc­cess af­ter three months, just as Kite has.
