Juno Therapeutics Inc., a biopharmaceutical company developing cellular immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer, released additional data from the TRANSCEND study of JCAR017 (lisocabtagene maraleucel; liso-cel) in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma in a presentation at the 59th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition.
The phase III frontMIND trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of tafasitamab (Monjuvi/Minjuvi), a humanized Fc-modified cytolytic CD19-targeting monoclonal antibody, and lenalidomide added to R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone; Tafa-Len-R-CHOP) versus R-CHOP alone as a first-line treatment for adults with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or high-grade B-cell lymphoma, has produced positive results.
