Expert Statements

Patrick Soon-Shiong, Founder, Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio

“The QUILT-3.032 study represents one of the longest follow-up data sets in BCG-unresponsive NMIBC to date, and the results continue to support the durability of ANKTIVA’s unique mechanism of action in generating sustained immune responses.”

Patrick Soon-Shiong, Founder, Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio

“These long-term findings are encouraging, suggesting the potential for prolonged disease control and the possibility of avoiding or delaying radical cystectomy for some patients.”

Richard Adcock, President and CEO of ImmunityBio

“Achieving a durable response and avoiding cystectomy are important treatment goals for patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC.”

Richard Adcock, President and CEO of ImmunityBio

“These peer-reviewed results add to the growing body of evidence supporting ANKTIVA plus BCG and highlight its potential to provide sustained disease control and meaningful cystectomy avoidance for patients with limited treatment options. We thank the patients and clinical teams who contributed to this long-term follow-up.”
