AbbVie has received approval from the European Commission for ELAHERE® (mirvetuximab soravtansine), a targeted treatment for patients with FRα-positive platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. This marks a significant milestone, offering an effective new therapy for patients who have undergone one to three prior treatment regimens.
ELAHERE is the first FRα-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) to be approved in the EU, and its approval is supported by results from the Phase 3 MIRASOL trial. Data showed significant improvements in both progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to standard chemotherapy options.
