Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Sun Pharma said UNLOXCYT (cosibelimab-ipdl) was added as a Category 2A recommended option in US cancer-care guidelines for locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma when curative surgery or radiation is not possible. This follows a similar 2025 status in metastatic disease. The drug was already US FDA-approved in 2024. The study showed a 55% response rate, including 26% complete responses, with 24.1 months of median follow-up.
Broader guideline recognition may improve US physician adoption and patient access, supporting UNLOXCYT sales. No financial impact was disclosed.
