Intel Email Reveals Plan for Deep Factory Cuts
The Oregonian reported that chipmaker Intel plans to lay off up to 20% of its factory workforce, citing an internal email the publication says was verified by four employees. According to the report, Intel informed its employees that the cuts would begin taking effect in July and would impact factories worldwide. Most Read on IEN: Auto Giant Files for Bankruptcy, Blames Tariffs Ship Carrying 3,000 Vehicles Abandoned in Pacific Ocean Yaskawa Moving Headquarters from Illinois to Wisconsin PODCAST: Deere Clears the Air; Battery Factory Halted; P&G Cuts 7,000 Intel reportedly employed about 109,000 workers at the end of 2024, but it remains unclear how many work in Intel Foundry, the company's factory division. The unit's roles range from factory floor technicians to specialized researchers. Intel eliminated approximately 15,000 jobs last year through attrition, buyouts, early retirement offers and layoffs. However, according to The Oregonian, Chief Technology and Operations Officer Naga Chandrasekaran stated in the email that this round of job cuts will involve eliminating specific roles and levels, assessing skills for remaining positions and 'some hard decisions around our project investments.' Those projects include advancing its commercial semiconductor manufacturing and packaging projects in Oregon, New Mexico, Arizona, and Ohio as part of a plan to invest $100 billion in the U.S. However, the company recently postponed the opening of an Ohio factory, originally set to start operations this year. The company now plans to complete construction in 2030. Intel expected to receive $7.86 billion from the U.S. Department of Commerce under President Joe Biden's CHIPS and Science Act to help support the aforementioned projects. The Columbus Dispatch reported that, as of March, Intel has received $2.2 billion, with the remaining funding in question following Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's comments that President Donald Trump's administration was renegotiating Biden's grants. Reports of the latest job cuts come after an April Bloomberg report indicated that Intel planned to cut over 20% of its workforce. Intel officials did not confirm the Bloomberg report, but CEO Lip-Bu Tan said the company's strategy included streamlining the organization by eliminating management layers. Shortly after the Bloomberg report, Tan sent a company-wide email criticizing some Intel teams for having eight or more layers of management. He also commented that the company is 'seen as too slow, too complex and too set in our ways.' Click here to subscribe to our daily newsletter featuring breaking manufacturing industry news.

Incyte Announces FDA Approval of Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in Combination with Rituximab and Lenalidomide for Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma
- Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix) in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide is the first FDA-approved CD19- and CD20-targeted immunotherapy combination for adult patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) - Patients with relapsed or refractory FL achieved significantly improved progression-free survival with Monjuvi in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in the Phase 3 registration trial - This milestone represents the second approved indication for Monjuvi in the United States WILMINGTON, Del., June 18, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Monjuvi® (tafasitamab-cxix), a humanized Fc-modified cytolytic CD19-targeting monoclonal antibody, in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL). "Patients living with relapsed or refractory FL have been waiting for new options that improve progression-free survival without substantial increase in side effects. Based on the data from the inMIND trial of Monjuvi, today's approval brings to this patient population the first CD-19 and CD20-targeted immunotherapy combination and a potential new treatment standard," said Hervé Hoppenot, Chief Executive Officer, Incyte. "This second U.S. approval for Monjuvi reinforces our commitment to advancing innovation for the lymphoma community." The Priority Review and FDA approval of the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Monjuvi was based on data from the pivotal, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 inMIND trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Monjuvi in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in adult patients with relapsed or refractory FL. Data from the trial was featured in the Late-breaking Session (LBA-1) at the 2024 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting.1 The study met its primary endpoint demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) by investigator assessment, which demonstrated 27.5% (N=273) of patients with an event in the Monjuvi group vs. 47.6% (N=275) of patients with an event in the control arm. Patients receiving Monjuvi in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide achieved a median PFS by investigator assessment of 22.4 months (95% CI, 19.2-not evaluable [NE]) compared to 13.9 months (95% CI, 11.5-16.4) in the control arm (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.43 [95% CI, 0.32-0.58]; P<0.0001). The PFS assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) was consistent with investigator-based results. Median PFS by IRC was not reached (95% CI, 19.3-NE) in the Monjuvi group versus 16.0 months (95% CI, 13.9-21.1) in the control arm (HR: 0.41 [95% CI, 0.29-0.56]. The PFS benefit was consistent across prespecified patient subgroups, including number of previous lines of therapy. The safety of Monjuvi in patients with FL was evaluated in 546 patients in the inMIND trial. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 33% of patients who received Monjuvi in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide, including serious infections in 24% of patients (including pneumonia and COVID-19 infection). Other serious adverse reactions in ≥ 2% of patients included renal insufficiency (3.3%), second primary malignancies (2.9%), and febrile neutropenia (2.6%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.5% of patients, including from COVID-19, sepsis, and adenocarcinoma. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in recipients of Monjuvi, excluding laboratory abnormalities, were respiratory tract infections (including COVID-19 infection and pneumonia), diarrhea, rash, fatigue, constipation, musculoskeletal pain, and cough. The most common Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥ 20%) were decreased neutrophils and decreased lymphocytes. "Follicular lymphoma is generally an indolent yet chronic cancer that frequently recurs after treatment, making long-term disease control a critical objective," said Christina Poh, M.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. "The FDA approval of Monjuvi in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide marks a significant advancement, offering a chemotherapy-free option that has demonstrated a meaningful reduction in the risk of disease progression across a broad patient population, including those with high-risk disease." FL is the second most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and represents up to 30% of NHL cases.2 While considered an indolent, slow-growing disease with prolonged survival, FL is challenging to treat due to its tendency for frequent relapse, need for multiple lines of therapy and potential transformation into large B-cell lymphoma.2,3 "While the initial responses to FL treatment are often positive, recurrence can become increasingly difficult for patients to manage as they navigate emotions and the next treatment steps related to relapse," said Mitchell Smith, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer, Follicular Lymphoma Foundation. "We are pleased that the FDA has approved tafasitamab, part of a treatment combination offering a new option for patients living with this chronic disease." In July 2020, Monjuvi in combination with lenalidomide received FDA approval for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified, including DLBCL arising from low grade lymphoma, and who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). This indication was approved under accelerated approval by the U.S. FDA based on overall response rate (ORR). Continued approval of Monjuvi for this indication may be contingent on verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). Tafasitamab is also being evaluated as a therapeutic option in an ongoing pivotal trial for first-line DLBCL. Incyte is committed to supporting patients and removing barriers to access medicines. Eligible patients in the U.S. who are prescribed Monjuvi have access to IncyteCARES (Connecting to Access, Reimbursement, Education and Support), a comprehensive program offering personalized patient support, including financial assistance and ongoing education and additional resources. More information about IncyteCARES is available by visiting or calling 1-855-452-5234, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET. About inMIND A global, double-blind, randomized, controlled Phase 3 study, inMIND (NCT04680052) evaluated the efficacy and safety of tafasitamab in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide compared with placebo in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) Grade 1 to 3a or relapsed or refractory nodal, splenic or extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). The study enrolled a total of 654 adults (age ≥18 years). The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free survival (PFS) by investigator assessment in the FL population, and the key secondary endpoints are PFS in the overall population as well as positron emission tomography complete response (PET-CR) and overall survival (OS) in the FL population.

Pro-Cuomo super PAC launching $380K field operation in final days of NYC mayoral race
The main super PAC boosting Andrew Cuomo's mayoral campaign is launching a field operation in the final days of the mayor's race to the tune of nearly $380,000 — including more than $100,000 spent on T-shirts for volunteers, new filings show. The expenditure from Fix the City, which has raised nearly $20 million in support of Cuomo, comes after the ex-governor's main rival in the Democratic mayoral primary, Zohran Mamdani, has mounted a major field game, deploying tens of thousands of mostly unpaid canvassers to knock doors for him and hand out campaign literature across the five boroughs. Cuomo's campaign hasn't launched its own paid field operation, so Fix the City's effort fills a void just as the June 24 primary campaign enters the final few days. The PAC, which is largely being funded by billionaire business titans like ex-Mayor Michael Bloomberg and cosmetics tycoon William Lauder, first plunked down $173,875 on June 12 to hire Bartholomew Communications and Strategies, a Manhattan consulting firm, to manage the field operation, disclosures show. The PAC then paid the firm another $109,044 on June 16 for the field operation work. In addition, Fix the City paid Mainland Media, a Bronx-based design company, $104,105 to manufacture hundreds of T-shirts emblazoned with Fix the City's logo and the phrase: 'Vote for Cuomo: The mayor for this moment.' Liz Benjamin, a spokeswoman for Fix the City, confirmed Wednesday the T-shirts are for the field workers hitting the streets for get-out-the-vote efforts. She also confirmed the field operation is underway, but declined to divulge how many volunteers the super PAC is dispatching or which neighborhoods they are targeting. Reached over the phone, Barry Caro, president of Bartholomew Communications and Strategies, declined to comment. Besides Fix the City, some of the labor unions backing Cuomo, like the Hotel and Gaming Trades Council and the District Council of Carpenters, have launched field efforts for him, too. Unlike Fix the City, those labor unions are also focusing on driving turnout for various other candidates they are backing in down-ballot races. Cuomo, a moderate Democrat who resigned as governor in 2021 amid sexual misconduct and pandemic mismanagement accusations he denies, continues to poll as the favorite to win Tuesday's primary. Mamdani, a democratic socialist running on a platform that includes a promise to freeze rent for stabilized tenants, has recently closed in on Cuomo in some polls, though. Field operation is perhaps the one campaigning area in which Cuomo has lagged behind Mamdani. Mamdani's army of some 42,000 unpaid volunteers are managed by 14 full-time campaign staffers who have for months been getting paid tens of thousands of dollars for that work. Though most of its volunteers aren't paid, Mamdani's campaign does also employ 54 paid canvassers and expects to spend about $185,000 in total on that front, according to a rep. When Fix the City is factored in, tens of millions of dollars have been spent on television ads and campaign mailers advertising Cuomo's bid to become the next mayor. Early voting in the mayoral race started last weekend. New Yorkers can continue voting early through Sunday and will then have a final chance to cast their ballots on Primary Day.
