sean,

You posted about the first cell therapy approval for solid tumors. I was not familiar with lifileucel and looked up some info on it. I saw the following in the FDA's announcement:

On February 16, 2024, the Food and Drug Administration granted accelerated approval to lifileucel (Amtagvi, Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc.), a tumor-derived autologous T cell immunotherapy, for adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma previously treated with a PD-1 blocking antibody, and if BRAF V600 positive, a BRAF inhibitor with or without a MEK inhibitor.

The prescribing information contains a Boxed Warning for treatment-related mortality, prolonged severe cytopenia, severe infection, cardiopulmonary, and renal impairment. The most common adverse reactions (≥20%) in order of decreasing frequency were chills, pyrexia, fatigue, tachycardia, diarrhea, febrile neutropenia, edema, rash hypotension, alopecia, infection, hypoxia, and dyspnea.

Based on the above and the price you quoted, there is plenty of room for Leronlimab in this indication if they can get approval. Thanks for the heads-up.
