Biopharmaceutical companies Astellas and Seagen today announced that the European Commission has approved Padcev (enfortumab vedotin) as a monotherapy for adults with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma
Urothelial carcinoma is a cancer that originates in the urinary tract, which includes the bladder, ureters, urethra, and kidneys
Ahsan Arozullah, head of Astellas' developmental therapeutic area, said the approval represents "an important milestone for patients with advanced urothelial cancer who have limited treatment options and poor survival rates
manage
The EU approval was supported by data from the Phase III EV-301 trial, in which a total of 608 patients were randomized; 301 were assigned to receive Padcev (enfortumab vedotin) and 307 to receive chemotherapy
The results showed that patients who received Padcev (enfortumab vedotin) had a median overall survival (OS) of 12.
