JPM 2022: Bluebird bio hopes for clear skies ahead as it gears up for trio of gene therapy launches

Bluebird is readying the commercial nest ahead of a May decision on its beta thalassemia gene therapy beti-cel, also known as Zynteglo. Those preparations will be "crucial" to unlocking the blockbuster potential of lovo-cel in sickle cell disease (SCD) next year, should that drug pass muster at the FDA, bluebird CEO Andrew Obenshain said Wednesday at the 2022 J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.
