Pushing the boundaries of science to redefine care in haematology


Despite great strides in the treatment and understanding of blood 癌症s in recent years, there remain critical unmet needs for this diverse and complex family of diseases. These significant gaps in treating and caring for patients with blood 癌症 are why 澳门在线赌城娱乐 is committed to help transform the haematologic 癌症 care experience.


We strive to be a scientific leader in haematology by helping to care for the 3.6 million people living with blood 癌症s* worldwide as of 2020.1


血 癌症s are a diverse and complex family of diseases. There are blood 癌症s and related disorders of the blood, 骨髓或淋巴结, 包括白血病, 淋巴瘤和骨髓瘤.2 在血液恶性肿瘤中, our core areas of focus include acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), 骨髓增生异常综合征(MDS), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and multiple myeloma (MM).

Applying our deep understanding of blood 癌症s and leveraging our strength in solid tumour oncology, we are driving the development of novel therapies designed to target underlying drivers of disease across six scientific platforms. Our signature platforms include antibody drug conjugates, immuno-oncology, DNA损伤反应, 肿瘤驱动因素和耐药性, 细胞治疗和表观遗传学.

By seeking to address blood 癌症s with high unmet needs, our aim is to deliver new medicines and approaches to healthcare services that have a meaningful impact on patients and 照顾者s, transforming the haematologic 癌症 care experience.

Taking courageous, 由科学推动风险

We are bold and fearless in our approach, innovative in our mindset and committed to taking courageous, 由科学推动风险. 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐由科学推动, risk-taking strategy is based on the fundamental principle that we do what is right for patients, and that we pursue scientific excellence.

Our robust development programme includes more than 11 company-sponsored clinical trials across multiple B-cell blood 癌症s, with investigational agents in pre-clinical through Phase III development.3 We encourage scientific exploration with a smart risk-taking process that allows us to adapt and evolve, accelerating programmes that show promise.

The breadth and depth of our pipeline enables us to explore potential synergies between our own molecules and look at combinations with standard of care where the addition of a novel combination partner may help address an unmet medical need.

Delivering meaningful impact on haematology care, shaped by patient insights

Each person impacted by blood 癌症, 他们是否是病人, 照顾者, 家人或朋友, is another reason our researchers work every day to advance the science in haematology. We’re proud to be part of and to collaborate with the blood 癌症 community, integrating patient insights at key decision points of development, to help transform healthcare delivery and create new treatment options for those battling blood 癌症s.

Though we are at the beginning of our ambitious journey in haematology, but through our strategic partnerships, we are advancing the healthcare ecosystem, delivering greater value for patients, 医疗保健和社会. We are proud of the progress we have made in collaboration with the blood 癌症 community, yet we recognise that there is far more to be done.


Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia: a common and complex blood 癌症

CLL is the most common type of leukaemia in adults, 估计有114人,2017年全球新发病例达1万例, and the number of people living with CLL is expected to grow with improved treatment as patients live longer with the disease.4,5,6,7


在慢性淋巴细胞白血病, 癌症ous ce在那 crowd the bone marrow leaving less room for healthy white blood ce在那, 红细胞和血小板. This can lead to infection, anaemia and bleeding.5 When CLL ce在那 are found mostly in the lymph nodes, they are called small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) ce在那.8 The majority of CLL patients have multiple comorbid health conditions, though disease progression and complications are the primary causes of death.9

There are treatment options to help manage CLL, 然而, 一些病人, including those that are older or have other conditions, may experience serious long-term or late effects from existing therapies.10,11 For many patients with CLL, the disease may return even after successful treatment.12 New therapies aim to address these needs for patients with CLL.

CLL is characterised by a variety of molecular abnormalities that are responsible for disease development, 进步与转变.13 The presence of certain biomarkers in CLL is increasingly used to inform the best course of treatment.14 



As our understanding of CLL advances, we are learning more about the disease’s biomarkers and the valuable role their presence plays in determining a patient’s risk category and in guiding treatment decisions.13,15


Mantle cell lymphoma: a rare and highly variable 癌症

Lymphoma is a blood 癌症 of the lymphatic system. It is caused by the rapid production of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell.16 B ce在那 and T ce在那 are the two types of lymphocytes that can develop into lymphomas.17 The two main types of lymphoma are Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).16 MCL is a rare NHL typically resulting when B-lymphocytes mutate into malignant ce在那 within a region of the lymph node known as the mantle zone.18,19

MCL is often diagnosed as a late-stage disease after it has spread to the gastrointestinal tract and bone marrow.18 MCL can vary in clinical presentation and aggressiveness. Symptoms may include swelling of the lymph nodes, 发热, 盗汗, 体重减轻和疲劳, though some people have zero to few signs of MCL leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.17,19

There is no cure for MCL; 然而, there are treatment options to help manage the disease, and recent treatment advances have improved patient outcomes. Unfortunately, for many patients the disease may return after treatment.20 Additional treatment options are needed for people who relapse or do not respond to treatment.
