Seagen, formerly Seattle Genetics, is a Seattle-based biotechnology company founded in 1998 by scientist Clay Siegall, who continues to lead the company today.
Seagen is dedicated to the field of oncology and our mission is to discover, develop and commercialise high-potential targeted therapies that can change the prognosis and management of cancer patients.
Our focus and strategy has always been to use the most innovative scientific technologies to develop next-generation biotherapies for advanced, difficult-to-treat cancers. To make the fruits of our R&D investments available to professionals and patients even more quickly, we have until now favoured a cooperative model with a strong spirit of partnership.
For the first time, in 2020, Seagen decided to market one of its products under its own name in metastatic breast cancer and has therefore very recently established itself in various European countries with the opening of different subsidiaries, including France where the status of Pharmaceutical Laboratory Operator was obtained in February 2021.
