The analyst highlighted the company’s promising outlook, supported by its CARVYKTI. Another factor suggesting the treatment’s favorable risk-benefit profile is the FDA approval of a supplemental BLA for CARVYKTI that eliminates the need for a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy.

The analyst expects this factor, coupled with the updated monitoring requirements, to expedite the launch of CARVYKTI in the US market. In addition, the extensive experience of physicians with CARVYKTI, despite the recommendation by the European Medicines Agency to include warnings regarding potential immune-mediated enterocolitis, suggests that the product’s benefits outweigh its risks.
