"We are pleased that updated clinical trial results with our antibodies MOR208 and MOR202 in patients with B-cell malignancies and multiple myeloma, respectively, will be shown at the upcoming ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) conference as oral presentations," commented Dr. Arndt Schottelius, Chief Development Officer of MorphoSys AG. "We expect this will further demonstrate the potential of our proprietary development candidates for patients suffering from those hemato-oncological malignancies that have a particularly high unmet medical need."
