Novel Targeted Therapies in the Treatment Landscape
Key Themes:
- Emergence of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) targeting various receptors
- Movement of ADCs into earlier treatment settings
- Biomarker-directed therapy approach
Notable Insights:
- Multiple ADCs are in development with different targeting mechanisms and payloads:
- Mirvetuximab soravtansine (folate receptor alpha, microtubule toxin)
- Renatabart cecitakin (folate receptor alpha, exatecan payload)
- Trastuzumab deruxtecan (HER2, deruxtecan payload)
- Relutagimod deruxtecan (cadherin-6, deruxtecan payload)
- TORL-1-23 (claudin-6, MMAE payload)
- ADCs are moving from platinum-resistant settings into maintenance therapy and frontline treatment:
- GLORIOSA trial: mirvetuximab plus bevacizumab maintenance after second-line platinum
- Trastuzumab deruxtecan trials in HRD-negative frontline maintenance
- Dr Moore emphasized that these are “very effective medications” but acknowledged: “We’re excited, but there’s a lot we have to learn…there’s just going to be quite a bit of work to do in the next years to really sort this out, to optimize for patients.”
