Astellas Pharma and Seagen announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has positively evaluated PADCEV (enfortumab vedotin) for advanced urothelial cancer patients who have undergone platinum-based chemotherapy and PD-1/L1 inhibitors. This marks a significant step as it could be the first antibody-drug conjugate approved in the EU for this condition. The recommendation is based on the Phase 3 EV-301 trial data, highlighting overall survival improvements. The final decision by the European Commission is awaited.
