CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--bluebird bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLUE), a clinical-stage company committed to developing potentially transformative gene therapies for severe genetic diseases and T cell-based immunotherapies for cancer, today reported business highlights and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
“In the first quarter of 2017, we have been laser-focused on continuing to develop our commercial and manufacturing infrastructure and ensuring that we are prepared for future MAA and BLA filings,” said Nick Leschly, chief bluebird. “Throughout 2017, we will be presenting data across all four of our clinical programs. On our two most advanced programs in TDT and cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy, these data will dictate the timing and path for future regulatory submissions in the US and Europe. For our Phase 1/2 programs in SCD and multiple myeloma, the 2017 data will dictate the timing and path for our planned Phase 3 trials. I’m enthusiastic about the progress our teams are making, and look forward to continuing to move our programs forward through the second half of 2017.”
