There will be plenty of data from clinical trials testing treatments for various lymphomas at the 62nd American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting this weekend. While CAR T cells have changed the landscape in the relapsed and refractory space for large B-cell lymphoma patients with two FDA approved medications, Kymriah (tisagenlecleucel, Novartis AG) and Yescarta (axicabtagene ciloleucel, Gilead Sciences), "the uptake has been good but not dominant. There's still plenty of space. There's still plenty of need," Jason Westin, leader of the diffuse large B-cell lymphoma research team at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in the Department of Lymphoma and Myeloma, said on a call with clients from Raymond James.

An earlier-than-intended release of abstracts for the American Society of Hematology annual meeting spilled multiple market-moving updates Nov. 4, though with no apparent shocks so far.

By contrast, shares of Global Blood Therapeutics Inc. climbed nearly 15%, buoyed by new data supporting the long-term use of its sickle cell disease therapy, Oxbryta (voxelotor).
