Frequently asked questions about AFM13

What is AFM13 used for?

AFM13 is an investigational therapy being studied for CD30-positive lymphomas, specifically relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and peripheral T cell lymphoma, including transformed mycosis fungoides. It is not approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does AFM13 target?

AFM13 is a bispecific monoclonal antibody that targets CD30 on lymphoma cells and CD16A on natural killer cells, bridging the two to enhance antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. This mechanism is designed to direct immune effector cells to CD30-positive tumors.

Who is developing AFM13?

AFM13 is being developed by Affimed N.V., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. Affimed trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol AFMD.

What phase is AFM13 in?

AFM13 is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has received Fast Track designation from the FDA but is not approved for any indication. All completed trials to date include Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies.

What clinical trials is AFM13 in?

AFM13 has been evaluated in completed trials including NCT04101331 (Phase 2 in peripheral T cell lymphoma), NCT02665650 (Phase 1 with pembrolizumab in Hodgkin lymphoma), NCT02321592 (Phase 2 in Hodgkin lymphoma), and NCT01221571 (Phase 1 in Hodgkin lymphoma). No active trials are currently listed.

Is AFM13 the same as AFM 13?

Yes, AFM13 and AFM 13 refer to the same investigational drug candidate developed by Affimed N.V. The spacing is a formatting variation of the same name.
