Reblozyl (luspatercept)
July 30
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted the supplemental Biologics License Application for Reblozyl with concomitant janus kinase inhibitor therapy in adult patients with myelofibrosis-associated anemia receiving red blood cell transfusions. The acceptance was supported by results from the Phase 3 INDEPENDENCE study. The FDA granted a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of March 11, 2027.
mezigdomide July 13
The FDA accepted a New Drug Application for mezigdomide in combination with carfilzomib and dexamethasone (MeziKd) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), granting a PDUFA date of May 13, 2027. The filing was based on the positive results from the Phase 3 SUCCESSOR-2 trial.

Mezigdomide is the second BMS CELMoD to be granted a PDUFA date this year for an RRMM indication, joining iberdomide, which has a PDUFA date of August 17, 2026.
izalontamab brengitecan
(iza-bren) June 2
Announced with SystImmune that SystImmune’s parent company, Sichuan Biokin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., reported positive results from prespecified interim analyses of two Phase 3 studies evaluating iza-bren. In the studies, iza-bren achieved statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) in heavily pretreated, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer and recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Camzyos (mavacamten)
June 1
The FDA accepted for priority review a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for Camzyos as a potential treatment for adolescents ages 12 to <18 years with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The sNDA submission was based on data from the Phase 3 SCOUT-HCM trial.
Opdivo (nivolumab)
June 1
The European Commission (EC) approved Opdivo in combination with doxorubicin, vinblastine and dacarbazine for the treatment of adult and adolescent patients 12 years of age and older with previously untreated Stage III or IV classical Hodgkin Lymphoma. The EC approval is based on data from the Phase 3 SWOG 1826 (Study CA2098UT).
pumitamig May 30
Interim Phase 2 data, announced with BioNTech SE, from the global Phase 2/3 ROSETTA Lung-02 trial evaluating pumitamig plus chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) demonstrated robust anti-tumor activity with high response rates observed in both non-squamous and squamous NSCLC and at each PD-L1 expression level.
mezigdomide May 29
Announced positive results from the Phase 3 SUCCESSOR-2 trial of MeziKd versus carfilzomib and dexamethasone alone (Kd) in patients with RRMM. MeziKd demonstrated a clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvement in PFS, representing a 52% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death compared with Kd.
Sotyktu (deucravacitinib)
May 8
The EC approved Sotyktu, alone or in combination with methotrexate, for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in adults who have had an inadequate response or who have been intolerant to a prior disease-modifying antirheumatic therapy.

Our Strategy
At Bristol Myers Squibb, our goal is to build a company that is financially strong and delivers industry-leading, sustainable growth into the 2030s and beyond.
As we advance our multi-year strategy to position the company for long-term growth, we are guided by the following priorities:
•Focusing R&D on high-impact, transformational medicines to treat life-threatening diseases;
•Embedding rigorous operational execution across the organization to build momentum in our Growth Portfolio comprised primarily of medicines early in their lifecycles; and
•Maintaining disciplined capital allocation to drive sustainable cash flow generation, balance sheet strength and long-term shareholder returns.

Business Development
The company recently entered into multiple transactions that strengthen its pipeline and operational capabilities.

In July 2026, the company announced an expansion of its existing collaboration with NVIDIA to deploy NVIDIA’s newest AI infrastructure, Vera Rubin NVL72, for running predictive models at scale and training large AI models on BMS’s own data. Through this latest agreement, BMS scientists have the potential to understand disease biology more deeply, design and test candidate molecules faster, and gain deeper insights from clinical outcomes sooner. We expect this to ensure the company can continue pursuing the right targets and advancing stronger candidates, ultimately working toward smarter, more targeted clinical trial design and earlier, better-informed decisions about which programs to move forward.

In May 2026, the company announced a strategic agreement with Anthropic to deploy Claude across Bristol Myers Squibb’s research, clinical development, manufacturing, commercial and corporate functions. Claude will serve as the shared intelligence platform between enterprise functions, enabling the company to unlock its data and accelerate innovation.

Also in May 2026, the company entered into global strategic collaboration and licensing agreements with Hengrui Pharma to advance a portfolio of 13 early-stage programs in oncology, hematology and immunology. The collaboration furthers Bristol Myers Squibb’s efforts to accelerate early-stage clinical development and make informed, responsible decisions that contribute to the company’s growth potential.

Financial Guidance
Bristol Myers Squibb is increasing its full-year, non-GAAP revenue guidance from a range of approximately $46.0 billion to $47.5 billion to a range of approximately $49.0 billion to $50.0 billion. This update primarily reflects broad-based and continuing momentum across the portfolio.
Full-year operating expenses in 2026 are now expected to be approximately $16.5 billion, due to increased investment behind key pipeline programs and new product launches.
As a result of these guidance updates, non-GAAP EPS is increasing to an anticipated range of $6.75 – $7.00.

The 2026 financial guidance provided excludes the impact of any potential future strategic acquisitions, divestitures, specified items that have not yet been identified and quantified, and the impact of Acquired IPRD charges and licensing income incurred after June 30, 2026. To the extent we have quantified the impact of significant R&D charges or other income resulting from upfront or contingent milestone payments in connection with asset acquisitions or licensing of third-party intellectual property rights, we may update this information from time to time on our website, www.bms.com, in the "Investors" section. Non-GAAP guidance assumes exchange rates as of the date noted. The financial guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties applicable to all forward-looking statements as described elsewhere in this press release.

A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP EPS, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not provided because comparable GAAP measures for such measures are not reasonably accessible or reliable due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying measures that would be necessary for such reconciliation. Namely, we are not, without unreasonable effort, able to reliably predict the impact of accelerated depreciation and impairment charges, legal and other settlements, gains and losses from equity investments and other adjustments. In addition, the company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and may have a material impact on our future GAAP results. See "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information."
