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 inhibitor1 and the pipeline programs – an investigational anti-CEACAM 5 antibody drug conjugate and SERD (‘859), an investigational oral selective estrogen receptor degrader.

"We are rapidly building momentum with the execution of our oncology strategy, with several developments on both our pipeline and marketed treatments. Additionally, we are assembling a world-class development and marketing team to support our growth in this core area," said Hudson.
