About Kite Pharma

At Kite, a Gilead Company, our singular focus is cell therapy to treat and potentially cure cancer. Our goal is to bring the promise of cell therapy to as many eligible patients as possible who may benefit. Since 2009, Kite has been at the forefront of cancer immunotherapy. Today, we are proud to be the leader in engineered T cell therapy for hematologic malignancies, but we recognize that this is just the beginning. Patients are at the heart of our focus on the cure, which is why we are committed to pursuing cell therapy as a transformative treatment option for as many people with cancer as possible who may benefit. Cancer is personal to us. Unlike traditional pharmaceutical manufacturing, our therapies are not created on an assembly line. Cell therapy specialists at our manufacturing facilities reengineer a patient’s own immune cells to attack and fight their cancer cells — one patient at a time. That sense of connection to the people we serve motivates us daily at Kite. Our corporate headquarters are located in Santa Monica, California, and we have dedicated cell therapy manufacturing facilities in California, Maryland and the Netherlands. If you’re passionate about changing the future of cancer treatment, let’s talk. See our community guidelines: http://bit.ly/2DznMNw
