About us

At Kite, a Gilead Company, our singular focus is achieving cures with cell therapy. Our goal is to bring the promise of cell therapy to as many eligible patients as possible who may benefit. Since 2009, Kite has been at the forefront of cancer immunotherapy. Today, we are proud to be the leader in engineered T cell therapy for hematologic malignancies, but we recognize that this is just the beginning. Patients are at the heart of our focus on the cure, which is why we are committed to pursuing cell therapy as a transformative treatment option for as many patients as possible who may benefit. Unlike traditional pharmaceutical manufacturing, our therapies are not created on an assembly line. Cell therapy specialists at our manufacturing facilities reengineer a patient’s own immune cells to attack and fight their cancer cells — one patient at a time. That sense of connection to the people we serve motivates us daily at Kite. Our corporate headquarters are located in Santa Monica, California, and we have dedicated cell therapy manufacturing facilities in California, Maryland and the Netherlands. If you’re passionate about bringing the curative potential of cell therapy to more eligible patients, let’s talk.

    Manufacturing is where CAR T becomes real. Every therapy is made-to-order. Every step in the process has to be done right, the first time. And every single day matters. Our promise is fast and reliable CAR T manufacturing for patients no matter where they are. Because we know patients don't have time to wait. Watch to learn how CAR T-cell therapy helps deliver hope to patients. https://gilead.inc/4uPBZgM

    Thirty-two Kite volunteers joined our local partner, Frederick County Public Schools, at their FCPS Science Fair, to spark curiosity and inspire the next generation of scientists and innovators near our cell therapy manufacturing facility in Frederick, Maryland. Through hands-on activities on safe sample collection, a coloring book that brought the CAR T manufacturing process to life and an awards ceremony that recognized standout middle and high school projects, our teams helped connect classroom curiosity to real-world science.

  • Behind every CAR T journey is a caregiver helping make treatment possible. For Angela, that meant learning as much as she could because with CAR T-cell therapy, a 24/7 caregiver is required for at least two weeks after infusion. We're working with American Cancer Society to ensure families and care partners have the resources they need to fill this role through education and support services.
