Over the past six weeks, OS Therapies has steadily advanced OST-HER2 toward commercialization. On Oct 22, 2025, it reported favorable Phase 2b subgroup survival data. Subsequent Q3 2025 results highlighted strong efficacy and outlined BLA/MAA timelines. In late November, coverage updates and the WHO nonproprietary name “daznelimgene lisbac” reinforced regulatory momentum, with multiple items noting planned filings in January 2026. Today’s announcement of an FDA BLA fee waiver and EMA Union Marketing Authorisation eligibility fits this ongoing regulatory progression.
