Sanofi’s oncology strategy is focused on four core therapeutic areas with four anchor treatments the company believes have the potential to transform patient care.
The four areas of strategic focus within oncology, including multiple myeloma, skin, lung, and breast cancers. Sanofi’s four anchor oncology treatments include Sarclisa® (isatuximab-irfc), an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody and Libtayo® (cemiplimab-nwlc), a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor and the pipeline programs – an investigational anti-CEACAM 5 antibody drug conjugate and SERD (‘859), an investigational oral selective estrogen receptor degrader.
