Bristol Myers Squibb received FDA accelerated approval for ZENBEXUS (iberdomide), its first CELMoD therapy, targeting multiple myeloma patients after just one relapse, offering a new treatment option and potential revenue growth for the company amid generic competition.

◆ The Wire takeaway

New oral cancer drugs that use protein degradation open a revenue path for therapy developers replacing aging blockbusters. You can plan to engage oncologists early with these novel mechanisms, as competitors lose ground to generics.
