Frequently asked questions about IMGN853

What is IMGN853 used for in endometrial cancer?

IMGN853 is being studied as a treatment for folate receptor-alpha positive endometrial cancer. It is an investigational antibody-drug conjugate in Phase 2 development for this indication. The ongoing trial enrolls women 18 years and older with FRα positive endometrial cancer in the United States.

What does IMGN853 target?

IMGN853 targets folate receptor-alpha, a protein expressed on certain cancer cells. It is an antibody-drug conjugate designed to bind FRα and deliver a cytotoxic payload to target cells. The Phase 2 trial specifically enrolls patients whose tumors are FRα positive, making it a biomarker-selected study.

Who is developing IMGN853?

IMGN853 is being developed by AbbVie Inc., which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker ABBV. AbbVie is the sponsor of the ongoing Phase 2 study evaluating the drug in endometrial cancer.

What phase is IMGN853 in?

IMGN853 is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational agent and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication. The current Phase 2 trial is actively recruiting participants with folate receptor-alpha positive endometrial cancer.

What clinical trials is IMGN853 in?

IMGN853 is being evaluated in the Phase 2 trial NCT03832361, titled Evaluation of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (IMGN853) in Women With Folate Receptor-α Positive Endometrial Cancer. The trial is recruiting, is uncontrolled, and plans to enroll 50 female participants aged 18 years and older in the United States.

Is IMGN853 the same as mirvetuximab soravtansine?

Yes, IMGN853 is also known as mirvetuximab soravtansine. The Phase 2 trial in endometrial cancer lists both names in its title, confirming they refer to the same antibody-drug conjugate targeting folate receptor-alpha.
