Zynlonta Lotis position in DLBCL strains ADC shares

ADC Therapeutics SA blamed patients’ advanced age on the death imbalance in the phase III Lotis-5 confirmatory trial testing Zynlonta (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl) in combination with rituximab to treat relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL). Whatever the reason, Wall Street wasn’t pleased and shares (NYSE:ADCT) closed June 4 at $1.32, down 57%, or $1.77.
