New Projects/Investments
  • Gilead Sciences exercised its combined option to exclusively license Assembly Bio’s helicase-primase inhibitor programs, including long-acting candidates ABI-1179 and ABI-5366, for recurrent genital herpes.
  • Gilead paid $35 million, reflecting a $45 million option fee net of $10 million accelerated funding received earlier.
  • Assembly Bio is eligible for up to $330 million in regulatory and commercial milestones plus tiered royalties, and may opt to share 40% of U.S. costs and profits instead of milestones and royalties.

Gilead reports positive Phase 3 ARTISTRY-2 results for BIC/LEN regimen
GILD
  • Gilead’s Phase 3 ARTISTRY-2 trial showed that switching virologically suppressed adults from BIKTARVY to the investigational once-daily single-tablet regimen of bictegravir/lenacapavir (BIC/LEN) achieved non-inferior HIV-1 RNA suppression (≤50 copies/mL at Week 48) versus continued BIKTARVY.
  • The BIC/LEN combination was generally well tolerated, with no new or significant safety concerns identified during the trial.
  • These positive ARTISTRY-2 topline results, together with ARTISTRY-1 findings, will form the basis for regulatory filings and be presented at future scientific congresses.

Gilead Sciences joins GI cancer immunotherapy breakthrough wave
GILD
Product Launch
New Projects/Investments
  • FDA approved the first perioperative immunotherapy for early gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers, establishing a new treatment paradigm.
  • The FDA also fast-tracked an experimental pancreatic cancer therapy after early trial data showed tumors shrinking in nearly one-third of patients.
  • Analysts forecast the global immuno-oncology market to grow at a 15.7% CAGR to US$416.28 billion by 2034.
  • Gilead Sciences is among the leading companies positioned to capitalize on emerging GI immunotherapy opportunities alongside Oncolytics, Agenus, Cardiff, and Exelixis.

Gilead discontinues Phase 3 cancer trial
GILD
  • Gilead and Arcus Biosciences halted the Phase 3 STAR-221 study in advanced gastric and esophageal cancers after an interim review found the therapy did not improve overall survival versus nivolumab plus chemotherapy, leading to a recommendation for futility by an independent data monitoring committee.
  • The combination therapy’s safety profile remained consistent with existing treatments and no new safety issues were identified.
  • Arcus retains rights to its HIF-2α inhibitor casdatifan outside Japan and select Asian territories (optioned by Taiho in October 2025) and will advance multiple oncology and autoimmune programs, supported by approximately $1 billion in cash and investments.
  • Following the discontinuation, Arcus shares fell 11% in premarket trading while Gilead shares declined 0.3%, reflecting investor reaction to the trial outcome.

Gilead: Yescarta shows durable benefits in R/R LBCL patients
GILD
  • Combined analysis of four-year Phase 3 ZUMA-7 and two-year Phase 2 ALYCANTE data showed overall survival of 64.9%, event-free survival of 45.2%, and progression-free survival of 47.4% in second-line R/R LBCL patients.
  • In transplant-ineligible patients (ALYCANTE), overall survival reached 70.8%, highlighting efficacy in a high-risk population.
  • Over half of patients achieved a complete metabolic response within three months, with 61% maintaining response at one year (duration of response ~61%).
  • Experts emphasize Yescarta’s potential as a one-time curative treatment, establishing CAR T-cell therapy as the new standard of care for second-line LBCL.

Gilead outlines R&D pipeline updates at Evercore ISI HealthCONx Conference
GILD
  • Gilead reports that Purpose 1/2 trials of long-acting HIV prevention showed 96% participant retention, and its move to an intramuscular (IM) formulation supports development of once-yearly dosing in the Purpose 365 study.
  • The company prioritized its long-acting integrase inhibitor GS-3242 over GS-1219 based on pharmacokinetics and tolerability, while its wholly owned once-weekly integrase plus lenacapavir prodrug combination is on clinical hold pending investigation of transient CD4⁺ T-cell decreases.
  • The bictegravir-lenacapavir (BIC-Len) two-drug regimen demonstrated high efficacy and low resistance emergence in Artistry-1, and is positioned for the switch setting with Artistry-2 readout expected soon.
  • An oral α4β7 integrin inhibitor for inflammatory bowel disease in the Phase II Swift trial has data due next year and aims to replicate or improve upon Entyvio-like efficacy with the convenience of oral dosing.
  • Gilead unveiled a next-generation bicistronic CD19/CD20 CAR-T candidate designed for enhanced safety and efficacy to succeed Yescarta/Tecartus and highlighted early in vivo CAR-T programs supported by strategic acquisitions.

Gilead presents R&D pipeline at Evercore HealthCONx conference
GILD
  • Gilead’s shift to intramuscular Sunlenca aims for a once-per-year HIV prevention regimen (Purpose 365), addressing subcutaneous nodules and improving compliance with low-frequency dosing.
  • Prioritized GS-3242 over GS-1219 for a longer-acting integrase inhibitor; the wholly owned weekly combination of GS-1720 and a lenacapavir prodrug is on clinical hold due to CD4⁺ T cell declines likely linked to metabolites.
  • BIC + Lenacapavir (BIC-Len) Phase III ARTISTRY-1 (treatment-experienced) and ARTISTRY-2 (switch setting, including Biktarvy) trials nearing readouts, with ARTISTRY-1 demonstrating high efficacy despite pre-existing resistance.
  • Advancing next-gen CD19/CD20 CAR-T to potentially replace Yescarta/Tecartus, with Imagine-1 myeloma data at ASH; investing in in vivo CAR-T via Interius acquisition and PreGene collaboration to secure future leadership.

Gilead outlines R&D progress across HIV, inflammation, and cell therapy
GILD
Product Launch
  • Dietmar Berger has led R&D at Gilead for one year, focusing on virology, oncology, and inflammation with multiple ongoing launches and positive clinical data.
  • Gilead’s long-acting HIV program includes Sunlenca, a subcutaneous injection every six months with >95% patient retention, and an annual intramuscular formulation under study (Purpose 365) for vaccine-like prevention.
  • The treatment pipeline prioritized GS-3242 as the lead long-acting integrase inhibitor over GS-1219, and advanced bictegravir + lenacapavir (BIC-Len) in two Phase III Artistry trials targeting switch settings and complex regimens.
  • In inflammation, a Phase II oral α4β7 antagonist is enrolling IBD patients in the Swift study (data due in 2026), and a Phase I oral GLP-1 candidate is being evaluated for obesity/metabolism with partnership potential.
  • In cell therapy, Gilead highlighted a next-generation bicistronic CD19/CD20 CAR-T with potential for improved safety and outpatient use, and will present fourth-line+ myeloma data from Arcelix Imagine-1 at ASH.

Gilead Sciences outlines HIV prevention launch progress and pipeline at Citi conference
GILD
Product Launch
Guidance Update
  • Sunlenca HIV prevention launch: J-code effective October 1 and 75% payer coverage achieved ahead of schedule; guided $150 M in H1 FY25 sales (including <$100 M in Q4), and the combined HIV prevention business grew 42% YoY in Q3 FY25.
  • Extended exclusivity & deep HIV pipeline: Patent settlement pushes Biktarvy U.S. exclusivity to 2036, and Gilead has eight clinical programs in HIV prevention and treatment—six long-acting and one annual injectable—supporting multiple future launch opportunities.
  • Oncology developments: Anito-cel (BCMA-directed cell therapy) pivotal Phase III data to be presented at ASH with a targeted fourth-line-plus launch by end-2026; Trodelvy label expansion for first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer expected in 2026.
  • Selective BD & improving leverage: Executes $800 M–$1.2 B in annual ordinary course BD, sourcing over 50% of deals from China; operating margin rebounded to ~50% in Q3 FY25 from sub-40% lows, reflecting leverage from new products.
