ELAHERE (mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx)
ELAHERE is indicated for the treatment of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer; Fallopian Tube Cancer; Primary Peritoneal Cancer.
How ELAHERE Works
Mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is an antibody-drug conjugate consisting of a chimeric IgG1 antibody directed against folate receptor alpha (FRα) and a microtubule inhibitor called DM4. After the antibody binds to FRα on the cell surface, the drug is internalized and DM4 is released intracellularly via proteolytic cleavage. The released DM4 disrupts the microtubule network within the cell, which leads to cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death.
