Mogamulizumab, sold under the brand name Poteligeo, is a humanized, afucosylated monoclonal antibody targeting CC chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4). [5] [7] It is given by injection into a vein. [5] [6]

Contents

The most common side effects include rash, infusion-related reactions, fatigue, diarrhea, musculoskeletal pain, and upper respiratory tract infection. [8]

Mogamulizumab was approved for medical use in Japan in 2012. It was approved for medical use in the United States and the European Union in 2018. [5] [6] It was approved for medical use in Canada in 2022. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication. [9]

Medical uses

Mogamulizumab is indicated for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome after at least one prior systemic therapy. [5] [6] [8]

History

The precursor to mogamulizumab was a mouse anti-human CCR4 IgG1 mAb (KM2160), that was made in 1996 in a collaboration between Kouji Matsushima of University of Tokyo and Kyowa Hakko Kirin. Kyowa humanized it, and expressed the humanized gene in a CHO cell line in which FUT8 had been knocked out, which produced antibodies with no fucose in the Fc region. [7] [10] This is thought to enhance its antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. [11] It was first tested in humans in 2007. [10]

Kyowa licensed rights for use outside of cancer to Amgen in 2008, for $100 million up front and $420 million in biodollars. [12] Amgen ran a Phase I study to explore its use in asthma. [13] Amgen terminated the agreement in 2014. [12]

In 2017, the US FDA granted the application for mogamulizumab a priority review for cutaneous T cell lymphoma. [14] Full approval was granted by the FDA in August 2018. [8] The FDA approval was based on a clinical trial of 372 participants with relapsed mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome who received either mogamulizumab or a type of chemotherapy called vorinostat. The FDA granted the application for mogamulizumab priority review, breakthrough therapy, and orphan drug designations. The FDA granted the approval of Poteligeo to Kyowa Kirin, Inc.

Society and culture

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved mogamulizumab in August 2018, [15] for the treatment of relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides and Sézary disease. [8] Mogamulizumab was approved in Japan in 2012, for the treatment of relapsed or refractory CCR4+ adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and in 2014, for relapsed or refractory CCR4+ cutaneous T cell lymphoma. [7] The latter approval was based on study with 28 participants. [16]

Mogamulizumab was approved for medical use in the European Union in November 2018, [6] and in Canada in June 2022.

Research

Mogamulizumab is being explored as a treatment for HTLV-1–Associated Myelopathy. An early Phase 1-2a study showed decreased in proviral loads, as well as inflammatory markers in the CSF. 79% of the patients showed reduction in spasticity and 32% showed decrease in motor disability. [17]

Mycosis fungoides, also known as Alibert-Bazin syndrome or granuloma fungoides, is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. It generally affects the skin, but may progress internally over time. Symptoms include rash, tumors, skin lesions, and itchy skin.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma</span> Medical condition

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a class of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is a type of cancer of the immune system. Unlike most non-Hodgkin lymphomas, CTCL is caused by a mutation of T cells. The cancerous T cells in the body initially migrate to the skin, causing various lesions to appear. These lesions change shape as the disease progresses, typically beginning as what appears to be a rash which can be very itchy and eventually forming plaques and tumors before spreading to other parts of the body.

Ibritumomab tiuxetan, sold under the trade name Zevalin, is a monoclonal antibody radioimmunotherapy treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The drug uses the monoclonal mouse IgG1 antibody ibritumomab in conjunction with the chelator tiuxetan, to which a radioactive isotope is added. Tiuxetan is a modified version of DTPA whose carbon backbone contains an isothiocyanatobenzyl and a methyl group.

Sézary disease, or Sézary syndrome, is a type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma that was first described by Albert Sézary. The affected T cells, known as Sézary's cells or Lutzner cells, have pathological quantities of mucopolysaccharides. Sézary disease is sometimes considered a late stage of mycosis fungoides with lymphadenopathy.

Tositumomab is a murine monoclonal antibody which targets the CD20 antigen produced in mammalian cell. It was combined with iodine-131 to produce a radiopharmaceutical for unsealed source radiotherapy, Iodine-131 Tositumomab, for the treatment of non-Hodgkins lymphoma. It is classified as a IgG2a lambda antibody.

Blinatumomab specifically targets the CD19 antigen present on B cells. In December 2014, it was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration under the accelerated approval program; marketing authorization depended on the outcome of clinical trials that were ongoing at the time of approval. Blinatumomab is given via intravenous infusion.
