Abstract
Enlonstobart (Enshuxing®), a recombinant, fully humanised immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody targeted against programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), is being developed by the CSPC Pharmaceutical Group for the treatment of advanced cervical cancer and other solid tumours. Enlonstobart received its first approval (a conditional marketing authorisation) in June 2024, in China, for use in patients with recurrent or metastatic programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive cervical cancer who have failed previous platinum-containing chemotherapy. Phase III clinical evaluation of enlonstobart for use as first-line treatment (in combination with chemotherapy ± bevacizumab) in patients with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1-positive cervical cancer is also underway in China. Additionally, phase II clinical development of enlonstobart (as a part of combination therapy) for use against a range of other solid tumour types is continuing. This article summarises the milestones in the development of enlonstobart leading to this first approval for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer.
期刊介绍:
Drugs is a journal that aims to enhance pharmacotherapy by publishing review and original research articles on key aspects of clinical pharmacology and therapeutics. The journal includes:
Leading/current opinion articles providing an overview of contentious or emerging issues.
Definitive reviews of drugs and drug classes, and their place in disease management.
Therapy in Practice articles including recommendations for specific clinical situations.
High-quality, well designed, original clinical research.
Adis Drug Evaluations reviewing the properties and place in therapy of both newer and established drugs.
AdisInsight Reports summarising development at first global approval.
Moreover, the journal offers additional digital features such as animated abstracts, video abstracts, instructional videos, and podcasts to increase visibility and educational value. Plain language summaries accompany articles to assist readers with some knowledge of the field in understanding important medical advances.
