welcome Rayne Waller and Brad Bailey to the Executive Committee as
exceptionally talented leaders with expertise in their fields.
These new additions strengthen our commitment to envision a bold
future for our diverse and innovative mid- to late-stage clinical
programs and pipeline that can impact the lives of as many patients
as possible. I am confident in their ability to energize our teams
and execute towards our 2030 vision to transform the lives of
people with cancer and other serious diseases with
knock-your-socks-off (KYSO®) antibody medicines.”
Rayne will further solidify and strengthen Genmab’s technical
operations capabilities and lead all the manufacturing and supply
chain capabilities of Genmab’s proprietary programs through
preclinical, clinical and commercial stages. Brad, who served
Genmab as Senior Vice President and US General Manager, has been
promoted to lead the direction, planning, and execution of Genmab’s
global commercial strategies. He will continue as US General
Manager on an interim basis.

biopharmaceutical experience, including CMC (chemistry,
manufacturing and controls) operations, supply chain management,
corporate governance, and oversight of multi-product, multi-ton
production and multi-billion-dollar inventory management. Rayne was

and he spent 27 years at Amgen, where he progressed through
hands-on and strategic positions of increasing scope and
responsibilities in product production, packaging, distribution,
logistics, and plant and supply chain management.
Brad joined Genmab in 2020 as the company’s first General
Manager in the United States. As part of this role, he led the
company’s US commercialization organization, including driving the
successful launches and co-commercialization partnerships for
tisotumab vedotin and epcoritamab. Brad brings more than 25 years
of experience in the healthcare industry, with focus in oncology,
