Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Tampa, FL, USACorrespondence: Jingsong ZhangDepartment of Genitourinary Oncology, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, 12902 USF Magnolia Drive, Tampa, FL 33612, USAEmail Jingsong.zhang@moffitt.orgAbstract: Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is an antibody–drug conjugate with humanized anti-Nectin-4 antibody linked with a microtubule-disrupting agent called monomethyl auristatin E. Nectin-4 is a cellular adhesion protein that is overexpressed in urothelial cancer. EV was approved in December 2019 for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer who previously received platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Here, we reviewed the clinical efficacy and safety data that led to the accelerated approval of EV for treating patients with metastatic urothelial cancer. Emerging clinical data on EV-based combinational therapeutic trials for metastatic urothelial cancer were also reviewed.Keywords: enfortumab vedotin, urothelial cancer, antibody-drug conjugate |
