  • The company will also deliver an oral presentation on first-in-human Phase 1 data for Lucar-G39D, an investigational allogeneic anti-CD20/CD19 dual-CAR gamma delta T cell therapy for relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
  • CARVYKTI is the first BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy approved for multiple myeloma patients with at least one prior line of therapy, currently commercially available in 14 countries & having treated over 9,000 patients.
  • Presentations include data on long-term progression-free survival, immune fitness benefits from earlier treatment use, bridging therapy effectiveness, comparative efficacy analyses, quality-adjusted survival outcomes for neurologic events, & real-world management of non-ICANS neurologic events.
  • CARVYKTI carries a boxed warning for cytokine release syndrome (CRS), neurologic toxicities (including ICANS, parkinsonism, Guillain-Barré syndrome, & myelitis), HLH/MAS, prolonged cytopenias, infections, hypogammaglobulinemia, & secondary hematological malignancies.
  • In CARTITUDE-4, early mortality was numerically higher in the CARVYKTI arm, with 14% of deaths occurring within 10 months compared to 12% in the control arm.
  • Clinical trial data reported CRS in 84% of patients (4% Grade 3), neurologic toxicities in 24% (7% Grade 3), & hypogammaglobulinemia in 94% of patients receiving CARVYKTI.
  • Secondary malignancies, including myelodysplastic syndrome & acute myeloid leukemia, were observed in 5% of patients in clinical studies, with a median time to onset of 447 days.
  • Legend Biotech is headquartered in the US, employs over 2,800 people, & markets CARVYKTI in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson.
