In other recent news, 2seventy bio reported a robust increase in its third-quarter revenues, largely driven by a 42% growth in U.S. sales for its CAR-T therapy Abecma, which reached $77 million. This surge is credited to the expansion in the third-line treatment setting and FDA approval. The company also announced a significant reduction in operating expenses and a streamlined focus on Abecma, following the sale of other R&D pipelines, bringing the current burn rate to approximately $10 million.
In further developments, 2seventy bio has projected U.S. revenues for Abecma to range from $240 million to $250 million for 2024. The company is also anticipating a further decrease in operating expenses and a cash runway extending beyond 2027. However, the fourth quarter might face challenges due to increased competition and reduced CAR-T infusion schedules during the U.S. holiday season.
On a positive note, demand for Abecma remains steady, with less than 25% market penetration in the third-line setting, indicating potential for growth. The breakeven point for 2seventy bio is now closer to $300 million in total U.S. sales for Abecma, down from the previously estimated $400 million.
