Description Belantamab mafodotin (Blenrep®) is an anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) monoclonal antibody and microtubule inhibitor conjugate. FDA Approved Indication(s) Blenrep is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least 4 prior lines of therapy, including an anti-CD38 antibody, a proteasome inhibitor, and an immunomodulatory agent. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). Policy/Criteria Provider must submit documentation (such as office chart notes, lab results or other clinical information) supporting that member has met all approval criteria. Health plan approved formularies should be reviewed for all coverage determinations. Requirements to use preferred alternative agents apply only when such requirements align with the health plan approved formulary. It is the policy of health plans affiliated with Envolve Pharmacy Solutions™ that Blenrep is medically necessary when the following criteria are met: I. Initial Approval Criteria A. Multiple Myeloma (must meet all): 1. Diagnosis of multiple myeloma; 2. Prescribed by or in consultation with an oncologist or hematologist; 3. Age ≥ 18 years; 4. Blenrep is prescribed as monotherapy; 5. Member has received ≥ 4 prior lines of therapy (see Appendix B for examples) that include all of the following (a, b, and c): a.

ADCs have made considerable progress in 10 years. While in 2009 only gemtuzumab ozogamicin (Mylotarg®) was used clinically, in 2020, 9 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved ADCs are available, and more than 80 others are in active clinical studies. This review will focus on FDA-approved and late-stage ADCs, their limitations including their toxicity and associated resistance mechanisms, as well as new emerging strategies to address these issues and attempt to widen their therapeutic window. Finally, we will discuss their combination with conventional chemotherapy or checkpoint inhibitors, and their design for applications beyond oncology, to make ADCs the magic bullet that Paul Ehrlich dreamed of. Keywords: antibody–drug conjugate; ADC; bioconjugation; linker; payload; cancer; resistance; combination therapies 1.

Tomé Received: 14 August 2020; Accepted: 13 October 2020; Published: 16 October 2020 Abstract: Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel drugs that exploit the specificity of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) to reach target antigens expressed on cancer cells for the delivery of a potent cytotoxic payload. ADCs provide a unique opportunity to deliver drugs to tumor cells while minimizing toxicity to normal tissue, achieving wider therapeutic windows and enhanced pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties. To date, nine ADCs have been approved by the FDA and more than 80 ADCs are under clinical development worldwide. In this paper, we provide an overview of the biology and chemistry of each component of ADC design. We briefly discuss the clinical experience with approved ADCs and the various pathways involved in ADC resistance.
