Bristol Myers Squibb board chair and CEO Giovanni Caforio said: “Our strong results reflect increased adoption of our new product portfolio and continued demand growth across all four core therapeutic areas.

“Our teams advanced the product portfolio and achieved significant regulatory and clinical milestones, including for the fixed-dose combination of relatlimab and nivolumab.

“Our deep and diverse product pipeline, commercial execution and financial flexibility provide a strong foundation that is enabling the company to bring new medicines that benefit patients with serious unmet needs, drive in-line product performance and deliver sustained growth.”
