Supplemental BLA for ANKTIVA + BCG in BCG-Unresponsive NMIBC with Papillary Disease Resubmitted to the FDA
“As far back as 2007, IL-15 was identified by leading scientific and medical organizations, including the NCI, NIH, FDA, AACR, and ASH, as the number one ranked immunotherapy molecule with the potential to cure cancer,” said Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, Founder, Executive Chairman, and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio. “The mechanism of action of ANKTIVA’s IL-15 superagonist activity was affirmed by the FDA’s approval of ANKTIVA in 2024 for BCG-unresponsive NMIBC with carcinoma in situ (CIS), with or without papillary tumors. The long-term data in papillary disease alone demonstrate prolonged disease-free survival and durable bladder preservation, consistent with ANKTIVA’s IL-15-based mechanism of action.”
