The European Commission has approved a label extension for Astellas Pharma’s Xtandi (enzalutamide) as monotherapy or in combination with androgen deprivation therapy for the treatment of adult men with high-risk biochemical recurrent non-metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who are unsuitable for salvage-radiotherapy.
EC granted marketing authorization for Elahere (mirvetuximab soravtansine) for the treatment of adult patients with folate receptor-alpha positive, platinum-resistant high grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer who have received one to three prior systemic treatment regimens. Elahere is the first and only folate receptor alpha-directed antibody drug conjugate medicine approved in the EU, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Northern Ireland.
