European Commission approves Roche’s Lunsumio subcutaneous for relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma

  • Lunsumio provides high rates of deep and long-lasting responses in third-line and later follicular lymphoma, a disease that typically becomes harder to treat each time a patient relapses1,2
  • Lunsumio subcutaneous offers a new treatment option that can significantly reduce administration time to approximately one minute
  • Availability of Lunsumio SC allows patients to receive treatment aligned to clinical requirements and lifestyle preferences

Basel, 19 November 2025 – Roche (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) announced today that the European Commission has granted conditional marketing authorisation of Lunsumio® (mosunetuzumab) subcutaneous (SC) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) after two or more lines of systemic therapy. Approval is based on results from the phase I/II GO29781 study, which showed that Lunsumio SC had pharmacokinetic non-inferiority compared with intravenous (IV) administration, with no unexpected safety signals.3

“Building on the benefits of its fixed-duration dosing schedule, Lunsumio can now be administered with a one-minute subcutaneous injection, providing people with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma an additional treatment option to help meet their individual clinical requirements and lifestyle preferences,” said Levi Garraway, MD, PhD, Roche’s Chief Medical Officer and Head of Global Product Development. “Developing new formulations of our medicines is part of our commitment to offering greater flexibility and a better treatment experience for patients.”

Lunsumio SC is a fixed-duration treatment that can be initiated in the outpatient setting and has the potential to substantially reduce treatment administration time with an approximately one-minute injection, compared with a 2-4 hour IV infusion.

Lunsumio has shown a favourable benefit-risk profile and high rates of deep and durable remissions with both IV and SC administration routes in third-line or later (3L+) FL.1,4 Lunsumio IV was the first bispecific antibody approved for 3L+ FL and has shown sustained responses, with 57% of patients who achieved a CR still in remission at five years.1 Long-term data from the SC and IV arms of the GO29781 study will be presented at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition.

These data have been submitted to other healthcare authorities around the world, including the US Food and Drug Administration.

Phase III studies involving Lunsumio SC are ongoing, including the MorningLyte trial investigating Lunsumio SC in combination with lenalidomide in previously untreated FL. Lunsumio, along with Columvi® (glofitamab), is part of Roche’s industry-leading CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody portfolio. Continuing to explore new formulations and combinations of these medicines across different disease areas and lines of treatment is part of Roche’s commitment to improve the patient experience and provide more choice to suit diverse patient and healthcare system needs.

About the GO29781 study
The GO29781 study is a phase II, multicentre, open-label, dose-escalation and expansion study evaluating the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of Lunsumio® (mosunetuzumab), administered both as an intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) treatment, in people with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The primary objective for the SC cohort was to show pharmacokinetic (PK) non-inferiority of the SC formulation of Lunsumio compared with the IV formulation, based on the study’s co-primary endpoints. Key secondary endpoints include complete response (CR) rate, objective response rate (ORR), duration of response, progression-free survival, safety and tolerability.

This approval is based on a primary analysis that explored Lunsumio administered subcutaneously in patients with 3L+ follicular lymphoma. Results from the primary analysis showed PK non-inferiority compared with IV administration, and the ORR and CR rates in patients treated with the fixed-duration, subcutaneous formulation of Lunsumio were 74.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 64.4-82.9%) and 58.5% (95% CI: 46.9-68.6%), respectively, as evaluated by the independent review faculty. The median duration of CR was 20.8 months (95% CI: 18.8-not evaluable [NE]) for patients receiving Lunsumio SC. The most common all-grade adverse events were injection-site reactions (60.6%; all Grade 1-2), fatigue (35.1%), and cytokine release syndrome (CRS; 29.8%). Overall, the rate and severity of CRS were low; events were low grade (Grade 1-2, 27.7%; Grade 3, 2.1%), occurred during cycle 1 and all fully resolved in a median of two days (range 1-15 days).3

About follicular lymphoma
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the most common slow-growing (indolent) form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, accounting for about one in five cases.2,5 It typically responds well to treatment but is often characterised by periods of remission and relapse.2 The disease typically becomes harder to treat each time a patient relapses, and early progression can be associated with poor long-term prognosis.5 It is estimated that more than 110,000 people are diagnosed with FL each year worldwide.5,6

About Lunsumio® (mosunetuzumab)
Lunsumio is a first-in-class CD20xCD3 T-cell engaging bispecific antibody designed to target CD20 on the surface of B cells and CD3 on the surface of T cells. This dual targeting activates and redirects a patient’s existing T cells to engage and eliminate target B cells by releasing cytotoxic proteins into the B cells. A robust clinical development programme for Lunsumio is ongoing, investigating the molecule as a monotherapy and in combination with other medicines, for the treatment of people with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas, including follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, other blood cancers and autoimmune disorders.

Profound Medical Celebrates The Hong Center’s 200th Independent TULSA Procedure for Prostate Disease

Profound Medical Celebrates The Hong Center’s 200th Independent TULSA Procedure for Prostate Disease




Profound Medical Celebrates The Hong Center’s 200th Independent TULSA Procedure for Prostate Disease

Renowned urologist Dr. Mark Hong sets new global benchmark for urologist-led, MRI-guided prostate treatment, leading a growing movement toward incision-free prostate therapy

TORONTO, Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Profound Medical Corp. (NASDAQ:PROF; TSX:PRN) (“Profound” or the “Company”), a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets AI-powered, MRI-guided, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue, announced today that The Hong Center Scottsdale, led by Dr. Y. Mark Hong of Integrative Urology in Phoenix, Arizona, has achieved a world-first milestone: 200 TULSA Procedures™ performed independently by a urologist, without radiologist involvement. This landmark establishes a new model for delivering MRI-guided prostate therapy.

“Dr. Hong’s longstanding commitment to innovation and compassion for his patients made him a pioneer in bringing the TULSA Procedure, a clinically proven, advanced prostate disease treatment, to patients,” said Profound Medical CEO and Chairman, Arun Menawat. “This 200-procedure milestone is more than a number – it represents the hundreds of men who are now living cancer-free, with preserved quality of life, thanks to his expertise and dedication.”

The TULSA Procedure, performed using Profound’s TULSA-PRO® system, is a significant advancement in prostate care. Instead of surgery or radiation, treatment is performed inside an MRI suite using robotically controlled, directional ultrasound to precisely ablate prostate tissue while protecting surrounding structures. TULSA-PRO is the only AI-powered, MR-guided robotic system for prostate therapy, enabling real-time MRI thermography and autonomous temperature control. This allows physicians to see, monitor and adjust treatment throughout the procedure — delivering personalized therapy with exceptional precision. Often, TULSA Procedures have involved collaboration between urologists and radiologists. Dr. Hong’s independent workflow proves that a urologist alone can safely execute the full procedure — from image planning to ablation — while achieving excellent outcomes.

Among the earliest adopters of the TULSA Procedure, Dr. Hong built one of the world’s first urology-driven practices to offer incision-free prostate care at The Hong Center Scottsdale. Treating patients from Arizona, nationally and internationally, Dr. Hong routinely performs whole-gland, focal, BPH and salvage cases with consistent, high-volume success, achieving exceptional outcomes without procedural blood loss or hospitalization. His experience and expertise have allowed him to treat the most complex of cases with rapid recovery, high cure rates, and preserved urinary and sexual function.

“Having performed hundreds of robotic prostatectomies, I recognized early the potential of the TULSA Procedure to transform prostate cancer treatment,” said Dr. Hong. “Since accountability is the most important factor to improving as an independent surgeon, we are proud of refining the TULSA technique over 200 cases to cure cancer while not causing harm. In my view, TULSA represents the future of prostate disease treatment, one that will ultimately replace radical prostatectomy as a first-line option for prostate cancer.”

Dr. Hong is one of the world’s first board-certified urologists to complete a fellowship in Integrative Medicine. A graduate of Stanford University School of Medicine, Dr. Hong completed his general surgery training at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and his urological surgery residency at Harvard Medical School. His research on prostate cancer and the fear of cancer recurrence remains one of the first works of its kind in the published literature. Dr. Hong completed a robotic and minimally invasive surgery fellowship at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. He has published extensively in nearly every international urological journal.

About Profound Medical Corp.

Profound is a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets AI-powered, MRI-guided, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue.

Profound is commercializing TULSA-PRO®, a technology that combines real-time MRI, AI-enhanced planning, robotically-driven transurethral ultrasound and closed-loop temperature feedback control. The TULSA Procedure™, performed using the TULSA-PRO system, has the potential of becoming a mainstream treatment modality across the entire prostate disease spectrum; ranging from low-, intermediate-, or high-risk prostate cancer; to hybrid patients suffering from both prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (“BPH”); to men with BPH only; and also, to patients requiring salvage therapy for radio-recurrent localized prostate cancer. The TULSA Procedure employs real-time MR guidance for precision to preserve patients’ urinary continence and sexual function, while killing the targeted prostate tissue via precise sound absorption technology that gently heats it to 55-57°C. TULSA is an incision- and radiation-free “one-and-done” procedure performed in a single session that takes a few hours. Virtually all prostate shapes and sizes can be safely, effectively, and efficiently treated with TULSA. There is no bleeding associated with the procedure; no hospital stay is required; and most TULSA patients report quick recovery to their normal routine. TULSA-PRO is CE marked, Health Canada approved, and 510(k) cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).

Profound is also commercializing Sonalleve®, an innovative therapeutic platform that is CE marked for the treatment of uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, pain palliation of bone metastases, desmoid tumors and osteoid osteoma. Sonalleve has also been approved by the China National Medical Products Administration for the non-invasive treatment of uterine fibroids and has FDA approval under a Humanitarian Device Exemption for the treatment of osteoid osteoma. Profound is in the early stages of exploring additional potential treatment markets for Sonalleve where the technology has been shown to have clinical application, such as non-invasive ablation of abdominal cancers and hyperthermia for cancer therapy.

Genmab Announces Pricing of Private Offering of Senior Secured Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes and Completion of Syndication of New Senior Secured Term Loan Facility

Media Release

COPENHAGEN, Denmark; November 18, 2025

Genmab A/S (Nasdaq: GMAB) (“Genmab”) announced today that it and its wholly owned subsidiary Genmab Finance LLC (“Genmab Finance”) have priced their previously announced offering of $1.5 billion of 6.250% senior secured notes due 2032 (the “Secured Notes”) and $1.0 billion of 7.250% senior unsecured notes due 2033 (the “Unsecured Notes,” and together with the Secured Notes, the “Notes”). The issue price of the Notes is 100.000%. The offering is expected to close on December 3, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Genmab also announced that it has completed the previously announced syndication of the new $2.0 billion senior secured term loan “B” facility, which term loan “B” facility is in addition to the $1.0 billion senior secured term loan “A” facility and $500 million senior secured revolving credit facility (collectively, the “New Credit Facilities”) that Genmab previously syndicated to certain lenders as part of the financing for the pending acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Merus N.V. (“Merus”).

Genmab intends to use the net proceeds from this offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under the New Credit Facilities and cash on hand, to fund the consideration payable in connection with the Acquisition of Merus and related fees and expenses in connection with the Acquisition, the borrowings under the New Credit Facilities and the issuance of the Notes.

Prior to the Acquisition closing, the Notes and the related guarantees from Genmab subsidiaries will be secured solely by segregated accounts of Genmab in which the gross proceeds of the Notes will be held. Following the purchase of all Merus common shares tendered in the previously announced tender offer by Genmab, the Secured Notes will be secured by a first priority security interest in certain assets of Genmab and its subsidiaries that will guarantee the obligations under the New Credit Facilities, in accordance with certain customary practices in the relevant jurisdictions, and subject to certain thresholds, exceptions and permitted liens. The Secured Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis and the Unsecured Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries of Genmab that will guarantee the obligations under the New Credit Facilities.

The indentures governing the Notes are expected to contain customary covenants that, among other things, restrict, with certain exceptions, the ability of each of Genmab and its subsidiaries to incur additional debt, pay dividends, make certain other restricted payments, incur debt secured by liens, dispose of assets, engage in consolidations and mergers or sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets.

The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state or other securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of or in a transaction not subject to the Securities Act and any state or other applicable securities laws. Accordingly, the offering of the Notes is available only to persons who are either (1) reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (2) non-U.S. persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will be subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom and in compliance with any state or other applicable securities laws.

This announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The offering of the Notes may be made only by means of an offering memorandum.

Comprehensive Healthcare Takes Next Step Toward Expanding Access to Behavioral Healthcare in Central Washington

Comprehensive Healthcare Takes Next Step Toward Expanding Access to Behavioral Healthcare in Central Washington




Comprehensive Healthcare Takes Next Step Toward Expanding Access to Behavioral Healthcare in Central Washington

Organization selected as one of 10 Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) pilot sites in the state

YAKIMA, Wash., Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Comprehensive Healthcare today announced that it was selected to Washington’s first Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Pre-Certification Cohort, an important milestone in the organization’s ongoing efforts to innovate and expand access to mental health and substance use treatment across Central Washington.

The CCBHC model is a national effort designed to transform how community-based behavioral healthcare is delivered. CCBHCs are required to provide a comprehensive range of mental health and substance use services, offer 24/7 crisis response, and coordinate care with hospitals, primary care providers, law enforcement and other community partners. The model emphasizes whole-person care and, through a sustainable funding framework, ensures that no one is turned away, regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.

Leaders at Comprehensive Healthcare have advocated for Washington state to adopt the model statewide and have invested in testing the program regionally.

“We believe deeply in the philosophy and vision behind the CCBHC model, and it’s an honor to be selected as a pilot site,” said Jodi Daly, Ph.D., CEO of Comprehensive Healthcare. “Our selection recognizes eight years of hard work, persistence and collective dedication to improving access to behavioral healthcare. Becoming a CCBHC pilot site isn’t just a recognition – it’s a strategic leap forward, and we’re proud to continue making meaningful change for our communities.”

Through Washington state’s pilot program launching in January 2026, Comprehensive Healthcare will gain access to technical expertise and support to shift key service lines, including outpatient mental health care, to the CCBHC model. The pre-certification cohort receives training and planning resources to enhance service delivery, strengthen operational capacity, invest in staff development and refine technology systems to meet national standards for data reporting and more.

Comprehensive Healthcare was selected for the program through a competitive application process that evaluated community behavioral health providers across the state based on a range of readiness indicators and geographic representation.

A recipient of several federal CCBHC advancement and development grants, Comprehensive Healthcare has long been at the forefront of advancing the model in Washington. Over the past several years, the organization has worked diligently to align its operations with the CCBHC model, introducing new programs, expanding existing services, and bolstering its team of clinicians and support staff. These efforts have positioned the agency to build on its momentum and take the next step toward full implementation.

“The CCBHC grants we’ve received have enabled us to break down barriers to care and connect clients with the help they need – when they need it,” said Natalie McGillen, Chief of Special Projects at Comprehensive Healthcare. “This funding has allowed us to better understand the needs of our communities through comprehensive assessments and translate those insights into responsive solutions that make a real difference. We’re looking forward to continuing to drive this work forward as an official CCBHC pilot site.”

Comprehensive Healthcare’s Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Same-Day Access program is one such solution, offering faster entry into care since its launch in March. In Yakima, 91 percent of clients who completed a screening and assessment through the program attended their first service appointment, and in Walla Walla, 87 percent – clear signs of improved engagement and fewer no-shows.

The organization’s crisis services have also seen meaningful progress in strengthening client engagement. From March 2024 to June 2025, more than 300 clients were supported across hundreds of encounters, with over half involving new or previously inactive individuals. Consistent and timely follow-up further reinforced ongoing engagement, contributing to a 40 percent completion rate of intake assessments among those referred to SUD Same-Day Access.

By adopting the CCBHC model, Comprehensive Healthcare joins a growing movement to create a modernized behavioral health system that prioritizes accessibility, collaboration and equity. The approach focuses on meeting people where they are – an ethos already deeply ingrained in Comprehensive Healthcare’s mission.

“Our progress in bringing the CCBHC model to Central Washington is thanks to our incredible team, whose passion and persistence in improving access to care and meeting the needs of our communities inspire everything we do,” Daly said. “I’m confident in our continued success because of their dedication and expertise. We’ll celebrate this milestone as both a recognition of our achievements and a renewed call to keep improving the health and wellbeing of our communities.”
