To that end, we have made advancements in all areas, including clinical, regulatory, and manufacturing, and we expect to receive clarification during a pre-BLA meeting with the FDA on the level of Chemistry, Manufacturing & Controls (CMC) process validation required at the time of the BLA submission. Importantly, our continued evaluation of the clinical data and manufacturing processes, as well as the progress over the past several months, have further strengthened our confidence in the prospects for IMMU-132 in mTNBC. We look forward to submitting the BLA between December 2017 and March 2018, which along with business development opportunities, should enable us to generate significant value for our stockholders.”
