Branded as Tecelra, it was approved to treat synovial sarcoma in certain patients who have received prior chemotherapy. The company said the treatment would launch at a list price of $727,000. It is the first gene therapy to be approved in the ******* States that uses a patient’s own immune response generating T-cells to ****** the *******. Tecelra, administered as a single intravenous dose, was given an accelerated approval, which requires the company to verify its benefit in a confirmatory trial. Synovial sarcoma, which most commonly develops in the extremities, impacts about 1,000 people in the ******* States each year and most often affects ****** males in their 30s or younger, according to the FDA. Shares of the company fell 3.5 per cent to $1.23 in early trading.
