FDA Approves Y-mAbs’ DANYELZA® (naxitamab-gqgk) for the Treatment of Neuroblastoma

NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Y-mAbs”) (Nasdaq: YMAB) a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel, antibody-based therapeutic products for the treatment of cancer, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has approved DANYELZA (naxitamab-gqgk) 40mg/10ml. DANYELZA is indicated, in combination with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (“GM-CSF”), for the treatment of pediatric patients 1 year of age and older and adult patients with relapsed or refractory high-risk neuroblastoma in the bone or bone marrow who have demonstrated a partial response, minor response, or stable disease to prior therapy. This indication is approved under accelerated approval regulation based on overall response rate and duration of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefits in a confirmatory trial. DANYELZA is a humanized, monoclonal antibody that targets the ganglioside GD2, which is highly expressed in various neuroectoderm-derived tumors and sarcomas. DANYELZA is administered to patients three times in a week in an outpatient setting and the treatment is repeated every four weeks. The product has received Priority Review, Orphan Drug, Breakthrough Therapy, and Rare Pediatric Disease designations from the FDA.

Global Contract Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Market Report 2020-2026: CDMO Categorization – Primed for Business Model Disruption – Benzinga

DUBLIN, Nov. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Contract Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Market 2020-2026 - Supply Chain Optimization and Decentralized Manufacturing to Expand the Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This research service focuses on the critical role being played by CDMOs in not only supporting new product research and development but also in creating standardized manufacturing protocols.

Additionally, the study explores different cross-sections of the market and discusses market dynamics for autologous and allogeneic solutions for cell and gene therapies and for products being manufactured for clinical trial use and for commercial markets. The variability in market dynamics, manufacturing protocols, and business models across cross-sections is high. Therefore, the study also covers the emergence of non-traditional CDMOs that have thrived as a result of this variability.

The cell and gene therapy segment is one of the fastest growing segments in the biopharmaceutical space. While the science behind the therapy has grown by leaps and bounds on the back of decades worth of research, manufacturing has unfortunately lagged behind.

To fully harness the curative potential of these therapies and ensure greater reach and affordability to patients, it is imperative that aggressive investments in manufacturing technology and capacity are made today. Investments in manufacturing technology advancements including automation, single-use technologies, and GMP-in-a-box, will not only enable operational efficiency gains but also reduce project costs, generating benefits which can be transferred directly to the patients.

A large part of this growth in the cell and gene therapy product pipeline is being driven by small and mid-sized biotechs that depend on CDMOs to mitigate product development risks and diffuse infrastructure investments to be able to build future products pipeline.

The study also provides a comprehensive and critical analysis of nationally coordinated efforts towards infrastructure development and the rise of academic institutes and hospitals in meeting not only the demand from clinics, but also the demand of the commercial market.

The study also analyses the growth of specialist CDMOs focusing on vectors and plasmids, for instance. The captures the regional outlook for growth based on the currently installed capacities as well as the pipeline investments being made towards expansion. Lastly, the study tracks growth opportunities across the entire product development spectrum from supply chain to upstream and downstream manufacturing.
