Basel, May 15, 2025 – Novartis will present data from 60 company or investigator sponsored abstracts that have the potential to change clinical practice, at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting and the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2025 Congress.
“The breadth of our oncology and hematology portfolio – anchored by Kisqali, Pluvicto, Scemblix and Fabhalta – demonstrates our leadership in both solid tumors and hematologic diseases,” said Shreeram Aradhye, M.D., President, Development and Chief Medical Officer, Novartis. “At ASCO and EHA, we will present new data on these priority medicines as well as updates from our pipeline and our industry-leading radioligand therapy research.”
Novartis will also highlight its US partnerships with the National Football League (NFL), Alliance for Breast Cancer Policy, and ZERO Prostate Cancer, which encourage people to make proactive decisions about their health and advance patient-centered policy solutions to help improve outcomes.
“We're witnessing a profound shift in how people move through their cancer journey, with cancer diagnoses occurring at younger ages and, simultaneously, older patients living longer and approaching aging with new vigor,” said Victor Bultó, President, US, Novartis. “As a leader in driving medical advances in oncology, we have the responsibility to also make a difference in areas beyond treatment innovation. By partnering across the ecosystem, our goal is to advance the conversation around earlier detection and meet the evolving needs of this next generation of cancer patients.”
