Summary of Clinical Use ![]() |
Enfortumab vedotin was advanced to clinical trials in cancer patients, in particular for bladder/urothelial cancers [2]. It was FDA approved in 2019 (under the FDA's accelerated approval process), for patients with locally advanced/metastatic urothelial cancer, for which immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies have been unsuccessful. It was the first anti-nectin 4 therapeutic to reach the clinic. Enfortumab vedotin with pembrolizumab, was approved by the FDA in April 2023, to treat locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (when cisplatin-containing chemotherapy is not suitable). |
