The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has validated the marketing authorisation application (MAA) for review of Genmab and Pfizer’s tisotumab vedotin to treat recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer.
The antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) would become the first treatment option in the European Union for adult cervical cancer patients whose disease has advanced on or following systemic therapy.
The MAA submission is based on results from the randomised, international Phase III innovaTV 301 trial.
The trial enrolled 502 patients who had received no more than two systemic regimens previously for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer.
Tisotumab vedotin demonstrated improved overall survival, progression-free survival and objective response rates.
The findings are compared to those obtained from chemotherapy treatments.
