Zevor-cel
🌦On March 5th, the fifth approved CAR-T therapy in China, Zevor-cel injection (Zevor-cel) by CARsgen, was priced at $116,000 for its initial release.
Zevor-cel injection is an autologous CAR-T product targeting BCMA. It is the fifth CAR-T therapy approved and marketed in China, following Axicabtagene Ciloleucel by Fosun Kite, Relmacabtagene Autoleucel by JW Therapeutics, Equecabtagene Autoleucel by IASO Bio, and Inaticabtagene Autoleucel by Juventas.
Cheapest CAR-T therapy
🌺Currently, the cheapest approved CAR-T therapy in the world is Inaticabtagene Autoleucel by Juventas. The price has dropped below one million RMB, at 999,000 RMB (equivalent to less than $140,000).
US CAR-T
🌼In 2017, the US FDA approved two CAR-T products, marking the beginning of the era of immunocellular therapy. CAR-T therapy has always been known for its high prices. Just how expensive is it? The two CAR-T therapies approved for sale in the United States are priced at $475,000 (Kymriah) and $373,000 (Yescarta), and these are just the prices of the drugs themselves. The total cost of the treatment far exceeds these amounts.
