“After years of posting impressive clinical results and pushing analyst projections to greater and greater heights, immuno-oncology has solidified its status as the most exciting development in cancer treatment for a long time. Now that checkpoint inhibitors have uncloaked cancer cells, drug developers are investigating dozens of immune drug cocktails (everything from CAR-T to antibodies, vaccines and other cellular therapies) to find well-tolerated treatments which could become the first-in-line to fight cancer in patients. We have all heard of the stunning breakthroughs at ASCO'15. BMS’ Opdivo + Yervoy study which lead to a 58% shrinkage of tumors and a PFS superiority of 8.6mos. against monotherapies in patients with melanoma. AstraZeneca’s own PD-L1 (MEDI4736/durvalumab) [see 10-15-15 AZN/PPHM Collab. Expansion: http://tinyurl.com/q79bkam ] and CTLA-4 (Tremelimumab) inhibitor combination, which demonstrated an ORR of 27% in the treatment of NSCLC… On Jan25-27 2016, 750 deal-makers will gather in the Grand Hyatt Hotel to discuss the direction, future and value of cell, gene and immunotherapy portfolios.”
