EMA validates extension application for SC formulation for Opdivo including liquid formulation and new strength across previously approved indications

“Subcutaneous nivolumab has the potential to change the way patients living with cancer receive Opdivo treatment and to significantly reduce administration time by utilizing a single injection in three-to-five minutes. By providing patients the same quality of care as IV Opdivo in a fraction of the time, patients can focus on what is important to them rather than spending a longer wait time at the infusion center,” said Susan Parker, vice president, global program lead, product design & development, Bristol Myers Squibb. “We are committed to advancing medicines that improve the patient experience and are evaluating innovative formulations across our broad portfolio. We look forward to working with the EMA to advance this application with the goal of introducing the subcutaneous option of Opdivo.”
