Roche said on Monday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted its supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) and granted Priority Review for Tecentriq (atezolizumab) for metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC).
FDA approves Roche’s cancer immunotherapy TECENTRIQ (atezolizumab) for people with a specific type of metastatic lung cancer.
