  1. Given the challenges you've faced with Sotyktu and Zeposia in the immunology space, particularly regarding market access and competition from IL-23 inhibitors, can you explain what specific actions you're taking to improve performance and overcome these hurdles?

  2. With the upcoming impact of the Inflation Reduction Act on Eliquis and potential price pressures on non-rebated drugs like Opdivo, how are you strategically preparing for these changes, and what can you share about the negotiations and their implications for your portfolio?

  3. As you've become more aggressive in business development while prioritizing programs to control costs, what is your current capacity for further deals, and are you considering expanding into new areas such as obesity treatments?

  4. Competitors are advancing therapies that claim superior efficacy to your growth drivers like Sotyktu and Opdualag, some even conducting head-to-head trials; how are you positioning your products to maintain market share amid this increasing competition?

  5. With several clinical readouts expected in multiple myeloma by 2026, including your CELMoD agents Iberdomide and Mezigdomide, how do you plan to position these therapies in an increasingly crowded market to ensure they stand out both clinically and commercially?

Bristol Myers Squibb outlines CAR T cell therapy strategy and pipeline
·$BMY
New Projects/Investments
Product Launch
  • Bristol Myers Squibb has treated 13,000 patients over four years and now leads with best-in-class CAR T assets including Orva-cel (GPRC5D), a dual BCMA/GPRC5D CAR T, and Breyanzi (CD19).

  • Access remains limited by center type—only 30% of eligible patients receive CAR T—so a recent REMS update reducing monitoring from four weeks to two weeks is expected to ease patient and center burden.
  • Beyond autologous CAR T, Bristol Myers Squibb is advancing its first allogeneic CD19 program (autoimmune focus) and exploring in vivo CAR T approaches to broaden off-the-shelf options.
  • In immunology, the company is deploying a next-generation CD19 construct (shorter manufacturing) in parallel “Break Free” basket trials across SLE, MS, scleroderma and myositis, supported by an “Action Network” of global physicians to build deployment ecosystems.
