Biotechnology / Cell & Gene Therapy / CAR-T Cell Therapy

Strategic Profile

Legend Biotech expects to achieve company-wide operating profit in 2026, supported by massive expansion of its Raritan manufacturing facility. The company develops and commercializes advanced oncology treatments primarily through its Johnson & Johnson collaboration, while diversifying its pipeline into allogeneic and in vivo therapies. CARVYKTI has cemented its status as the undisputed leader in multiple myeloma CAR-T cell therapy with record-breaking performance.

The expanded Raritan facility is the largest cell therapy manufacturing facility in the U.S., capable of treating 10,000 patients annually. Triple-class-exposed patients achieved median progression-free survival of 50.4 months after single infusion, and the company targets 2026 profitability with strong cash position.
