More Than 40 American Oncology Network Clinics Across 18 States and Washington, D.C., Now Offering Bispecific T-cell Engager Therapies to Patients

AON community oncology practices across the nation offering groundbreaking immunotherapy to expand treatment options for hard-to-treat cancers

FORT MYERS, Fla., July 21, 2025 – American Oncology Network (AON), one of the nation’s fastest-growing networks of community oncology practices, is now offering Bispecific T-cell Engager (BiTE) therapy—also known as BiTE therapy—at more than 40 partner practice clinics in 18 states and Washington, D.C. This advancement brings cutting-edge cancer treatment directly to patients in community settings, expanding access to a promising class of immunotherapies that may offer new hope for those with cancers resistant to standard treatments.

Bispecific therapies represent a major breakthrough in cancer care. These innovative therapies engage a patient’s own immune system by targeting two different molecules—one on a cancer cell and one on a T cell (a type of immune cell). By binding to both simultaneously, bispecific antibodies act as a bridge, directing the T cell to the tumor and triggering the immune system to attack the cancer directly.

“At AON, we’re committed to staying at the forefront of cancer care by integrating innovative therapies like bispecific antibodies into our clinical offerings,” said Melody Chang, RPh, MBA, BCOP, vice president of pharmacy operations at AON. “These therapies are an important part of our personalized treatment approach and have already shown promise in improving outcomes for patients with some of the most challenging cancers.”

Since March 2025, AON has provided bispecific antibody therapy to patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, uveal melanoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, multiple myeloma and extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.

“Bispecific therapies are particularly important for patients whose cancers no longer respond to traditional treatments,” said Dr. Stephen “Fred” Divers, chief medical officer at AON. “By expanding access to these therapies in the community setting, AON is helping patients stay close to home while receiving some of the most advanced treatment options available.”

AON’s implementation of BiTE therapies ensures patients across its national network can benefit from these innovations without the need to travel to academic medical centers or major research institutions.

How Bispecific Therapies Work:

  • Dual Targeting: Bispecific antibodies are engineered to recognize two targets—typically a cancer cell marker and a T cell receptor.
  • T Cell Engagement: The therapy draws T cells to the cancer site, increasing immune activity at the tumor.
  • Targeted Immune Activation: This precise approach enhances the immune response, improving the likelihood of destroying cancer cells while minimizing harm to healthy tissue.

In addition to offering these therapies, AON actively participates in clinical trials and collaborates with leading researchers to explore new applications of bispecific antibodies in oncology.

“AON’s expansion of bispecific antibody therapies reflects our mission to bring the most advanced treatments to local communities,” said Todd Schonherz, chief executive officer at AON. “Our focus on innovation and access allows patients to receive world-class care from trusted local providers without having to leave their support systems behind.”
