Celgene is a multinational biopharmaceutical company committed to improving the lives of patients worldwide.
Celgene seeks to deliver truly innovative and life-changing drugs for our patients. It’s mission as a company is to build a major global biopharmaceutical corporation while focusing on the discovery, the development, and the commercialization of products for the treatment of cancer and other severe, immune, inflammatory conditions.
Thanks to the establishment of its structure in France, a 100% subsidiary of Celgene Corporation, Celgene France ensures its presence on the French health market. Celgene France, besides the marketing of drugs, will establish many clinical trials of new molecules derived from the R&D of Celgene. These, of course, will be conducted in cooperation with the most recognized French medical institutions.
There are numerous clinical trials at major medical centers using compounds from Celgene. Investigational compounds are being studied for patients with incurable hematological and solid tumor cancers, including multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes, chronic lymphocyte leukemia (CLL), non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), glioblastoma, and ovarian, pancreatic and prostate cancer.
