Kite Pharma, a Gilead company, focuses on developing cures for cancer through cell therapy. Its therapies reengineer a patient's own immune cells to target cancer, delivered individually rather than on an assembly line, with the aim of helping eligible patients. Since 2009, Kite has been at the forefront of engineered T cell therapies for hematologic malignancies. The company is headquartered in Santa Monica, California, and maintains dedicated cell therapy manufacturing facilities in California, Maryland, and the Netherlands. In 2025 it expanded its Netherlands manufacturing facility, signaling ongoing geographic and capacity growth.
