  • Moderna Appoints Oncology Leader Dr. Stephen Kelsey As President of Onkaido
    Moderna Appoints Oncology Leader Dr. Stephen Kelsey as President of Onkaido Former Genentech executive to lead Moderna’s first venture company, focused exclusively in novel biology for oncology drug development CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 1, 2014— Moderna Therapeutics, the pioneer in developing messenger RNA (mRNA) TherapeuticsTM, a revolutionary treatment modality to enable the in vivo production of therapeutic proteins, announced today that Stephen Kelsey, M.D., will become president of Onkaido Therapeutics, Moderna’s oncology drug development company, effective July 21. Launched in January of this year, Onkaido is Moderna’s first venture company, focused exclusively on developing and commercializing mRNA-based oncology treatments. “As we continue to grow Moderna and perfect our mRNA Therapeutics platform, we are also focused on building a transformational oncology company that will benefit patients and society. This requires hiring the best oncology talent to lead Onkaido,” said Stéphane Bancel, president and founding chief executive officer, Moderna. “Steve brings a wealth of experience in oncology drug development to his new role. His knowledge and leadership, combined with the team of Onkaido scientists and Moderna’s innovative mRNA technology, will help speed a new class of cancer drugs to patients around the world.” Dr. Kelsey has extensive pharmaceutical industry experience in oncology. After 16 years as an academic clinician, he started his industry career at Sugen, and later was vice president of hematology/oncology at Genentech. While at Genentech, Dr. Kelsey played a significant role in the development of key products Perjeta®, Kadcyla® and Erivedge®, as well as other molecules in the company’s oncology portfolio. He left Genentech in 2009 to run Geron’s oncology division, where he served for four years as executive vice president, research and development, and chief medical officer helping to develop therapeutics and vaccines to fight cancer.

  • Combinations of Immunotherapy and Radiation Therapy in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: a Narrative Review

Correspondence to: Henry S. Park, MD, MPH. Assistant Professor of Therapeutic Radiology, Yale School of Medicine, 35 Park Street, Lower Level, New Haven, CT 06520, USA. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Radiation therapy and systemic therapy are the primary non-surgical treatment modalities for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Despite advances in our biologic understanding of this disease and the development of novel therapeutics, treatment resistance remains a significant problem. It has become increasingly evident that the innate and adaptive immune systems play a significant role in the modulation of anti-tumor responses to traditional cancer-directed therapies. By inducing DNA damage and cell death, radiation therapy appears to activate both innate and adaptive immune responses. Immunotherapies targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) also have yielded promising results, particularly in the recurrent/metastatic setting.

Attention: Dhushy Thambipillai Regulatory Project Management 1 DNA Way, Bldg 45-1 South San Francisco, CA 94080 RE: Emergency Use Authorization 099 Dear Ms. Thambipillai: This letter is in response to Genentech, Inc.’s (Genentech) request that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issue an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the emergency use of Actemra1 (tocilizumab) for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients, as described in the Scope of Authorization (Section II) of this letter, pursuant to Section 564 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) (21 U.S.C. §360bbb-3). On February 4, 2020, pursuant to Section 564(b)(1)(C) of the Act, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) determined that there is a public health emergency that has a significant potential to affect national security or the health and security of United States citizens living abroad, and that involves the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).2 On the basis of such determination, the Secretary of HHS on March 27, 2020, declared that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of drugs and biological products during the COVID-19 pandemic, pursuant to Section 564 of the Act (21 3 U.S.C. 360bbb-3), subject to terms of any authorization issued under that section. Actemra is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to both soluble and membrane-bound human IL-6 receptors (sIL-6R and mIL-6R) and subsequently inhibits IL- 6-mediated signaling through these receptors.

  • Genmab Announces Studies of Daratumumab in Combination with Atezolizumab in a Solid Tumor and Multiple Myeloma
    Genmab Announces Studies of Daratumumab in Combination with Atezolizumab in a Solid Tumor and Multiple Myeloma Company Announcement Phase Ib studies of daratumumab in combination with Roche’s immune checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab in a solid tumor and multiple myeloma to be started Studies conducted under a clinical trial collaboration agreement between Janssen and Roche Copenhagen, Denmark; March 21, 2016 – Genmab A/S (Nasdaq Copenhagen: GEN) announced today that daratumumab will be investigated in early stage clinical studies in combination with atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1 antibody), in a solid tumor and multiple myeloma. The studies will be conducted under a clinical trial collaboration agreement between Genmab’s licensing partner for daratumumab, Janssen Biotech, Inc., and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. Atezolizumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody designed to bind to a protein called PD-L1, which is expressed on tumor cells and tumor-infiltrating immune cells. Janssen will conduct a Phase Ib study of daratumumab in combination with atezolizumab to treat a solid tumor. Genentech will amend an ongoing Phase Ib study to assess atezolizumab in combination with daratumumab, with daratumumab and lenalidomide, and with daratumumab and pomalidomide in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (NCT02431208). The studies are expected to start enrolling patients later this year and information about the studies will be posted on www.clinicaltrials.gov. “We are very excited about the start of the first study to investigate daratumumab in a solid tumor, potentially expanding its clinical utility beyond hematological cancers. We are equally excited about testing daratumumab in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, such as Roche’s anti-PDL1, atezolizumab, in multiple myeloma.
