"This year’s ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) Meeting will see a number of important updates from our investigational compounds in various blood cancer indications," said Dr. Malte Peters, Chief Development Officer of MorphoSys AG. "We are particularly excited that we have been selected to present updated preliminary results on all 81 enrolled patients in the L-MIND study, in an oral presentation at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper). This study is designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of our Fc-enhanced CD19 antibody MOR208 in combination with lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL). Based on the U.S. FDA breakthrough therapy designation received last year, we are committed to developing MOR208 plus lenalidomide as a new treatment option for patients with r/r DLBCL, where there is a particularly high unmet medical need."

Details about MorphoSys’s abstracts accepted for presentation at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) 2018:
