GenScript®, the world leader in the biotechnology reagent service industry, strongly denies allegations made in a research report by short seller Flaming Research.
“The allegations made against our subsidiary Nanjing Legend Biotechnology Co. are inaccurate and misleading, as well as groundless and irresponsible,” said Eric Wang, GenScript’s vice president of marketing. “We are very proud of the significant breakthroughs in CAR-T research made by Legend’s scientific team, led by Dr. Frank Fan, and have and will continue to conduct our research and business to the highest standards of integrity with patient safety our paramount priority.”
Johnson &Johnson, Nanjing Legend’s partner, also confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that the company “conducted careful and detailed reviews” of Legend’s data and is “optimistic about the potential of this investigative therapy.”
GenScript has no information on the identity of Flaming Research and was never contacted by the entity. At this time, GenScript is consulting with its legal counsel and considering legal actions against Flaming.
