“Astellas is committed to bringing innovative therapies to patients with hard-to-treat cancers, including gastric cancer. While rare in the U.S., gastric cancer can be deadly when diagnosed in the late stages,” said Moitreyee Chatterjee-Kishore, PhD, MBA, Senior Vice President and Head of Immuno-Oncology Development, Astellas. “The FDA’s acceptance of the Biologics License Application filing and Priority Review designation for zolbetuximab confirms the urgent therapeutic need and brings us one step closer to delivering on this commitment to patients, families and caregivers.”
