These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the Company’s strategies and objectives; the anticipated timing of, and ability to progress, clinical trials; the ability to make, and the timing of, regulatory submissions in the United States, Europe and Asia, including Biologics License Application (BLA) submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), the submission of a marketing authorisation application (MAA) for cilta-cel to the European Medicines Agency (EMA), and the submission of an Investigational New Drug (IND) for LB1901 in relapsed or refractory T-Cell Lymphoma (TCL); the ability to generate, analyze and present data from clinical trials; patient enrollment; anticipated timing regarding regulatory approvals by the FDA, EMA or Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE); and the potential benefits of Legend Biotech’s product candidates. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors. Legend Biotech’s expectations could be affected by, among other things, uncertainties involved in the development of new pharmaceutical products; unexpected clinical trial results, including as a result of additional analysis of existing clinical data or unexpected new clinical data; unexpected regulatory actions or delays, including requests for additional safety and/or efficacy data or analysis of data, or government regulation generally; unexpected delays as a result of actions undertaken, or failures to act, by our third party partners; uncertainties arising from challenges to Legend Biotech’s patent or other proprietary intellectual property protection, including the uncertainties involved in the US litigation process; competition in general; government, industry, and general public pricing and other political pressures; the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental and regulatory measures implemented in response to the evolving situation; as well as the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2021.

CR, complete response; MRD, minimal residual disease; ORR, overall response rate; PR, partial response; sCR, stringent complete response; TEAE, treatment-emergent adverse events; VGPR, very good partial response.Agha M, et al.

 21  AE, adverse event; CRS, cytokine release syndrome; ICANS, immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome; TEAE, treatment-emergent AE. aTwo patients with ongoing symptoms continued to improve at the time of data cutoff; patient management strategies were implemented, including enhanced bridging therapy to reduce baseline tumor burden, early aggressive treatment of CRS and ICANS, handwriting assessments for early detection of neurotoxicity symptoms, and extended monitoring and reporting time for neurotoxicity beyond the first 100 days post-cilta-cel infusion. bDefined as having high tumor burden when any of the following parameters were met: bone marrow plasma cell ≥80%, serum M-spike ≥5 g/dL, serum free light chain ≥5000 mg/L. cIncluded patients treated in earlier and later line settings across the CARTITUDE program. 1.
