ImmunityBio, Inc. (IBRX) surged 29.5% intraday on Friday, driven by groundbreaking clinical trial results and explosive revenue growth for its flagship drug, Anktiva.
The biotech company announced durable complete responses of up to 15 months in a chemotherapy-free CD19 CAR-NK cell therapy trial for Waldenstrom lymphoma, with 100% disease control observed. The outpatient treatment showed no serious adverse events, bolstering investor confidence in its pipeline.
Preliminary earnings revealed a 700% year-over-year revenue jump for Anktiva, reaching $113 million in 2025, alongside recent regulatory approvals in Saudi Arabia for non-small cell lung cancer. The dual catalysts of clinical success and commercial momentum fueled the stock's rally.
