FDA Approvals

Regulatory approval is separate from evidence certainty and from guideline position. Approval applies only to the exact indication stated in each jurisdiction record.

FDA approves epcoritamab, a first-in-class bispecific antibody, for relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma

Regulatory status: FDA ApprovedEvidence stage: Later-Stage Human
Cancer type
Lymphoma
Population
Adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or other large B-cell lymphoma after two or more prior lines of systemic therapy, enrolled in the dose-expansion cohort of the single-arm, open-label, phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 trial.

Regulatory status by jurisdiction

United States (FDA)

Status
FDA-approved for the exact stated cancer/use
Indication
Adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified (including DLBCL arising from indolent lymphoma) and high-grade B-cell lymphoma, after two or more lines of systemic therapy.
Biomarker requirement
CD20-expressing B-cell lymphoma (target of the bispecific antibody; not a patient-selection biomarker test)
Decision date
2023-05-19
Access notes
Requires a step-up dosing schedule and monitoring for cytokine release syndrome, particularly around the first doses.

Lymphoma
Population
Adults with relapsed or refractory marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) who had received at least 2 lines of prior systemic therapy (including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent) or who relapsed after stem cell transplantation, enrolled in the MZL cohort of the open-label, single-arm, phase 2 TRANSCEND FL trial.
