Kite And Arcellx Announce Strategic Collaboration To Co-Develop And Co-Commercialize Late-Stage Clinical CART-DdBCMA In Multiple Myeloma

“The collaboration with Arcellx enables Kite to expand into a new area of high unmet need and bring a potentially best-in-class cell therapy to help many patients,” said Christi Shaw, Chief Executive Officer of Kite. “Cell therapy has proven it can change the way cancer is treated by creating a potentially curative therapy for an individual patient, engineered from their own t-cells. To deliver cell therapy globally, and at scale, it requires a highly coordinated, vertically integrated organization from R&D to commercialization to manufacturing, dedicated to the unique needs of this very complex field. The Kite team is excited to engage on this meaningful program in the multiple myeloma field, alongside Arcellx’s talented team.”
