Epcoritamab is to be administered by subcutaneous injection. Participants can be treated for up to 24 cycles. Participants who achieve complete remission at the time of their disease response assessment after 12 cycles may be considered for early discontinuation of treatment.

Patients with CR may continue to receive epcoritamab if disease progression occurs within 6 months. Patients with PR or SD continue to receive epcoritamab in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo PET/CT and blood sample collection throughout the study and may undergo biopsy during screening.

Frequently asked questions about Epcoritamab

What is epcoritamab?

Epcoritamab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being developed by Genmab A/S for B-cell malignancies. It is being studied in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), CLL/SLL, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder. It is in clinical development and is not described as approved.

What does epcoritamab target?

Epcoritamab targets MS4A1 (CD20) on B cells and the CD3 subunits CD3E, CD3G, and CD3D on T cells. By binding both a B-cell surface antigen and the T-cell receptor complex, it is designed to redirect T cells toward B-cell lymphoma cells. It is classified as a binding agent.

Who makes epcoritamab?

Epcoritamab is developed by Genmab A/S, which trades under the ticker GMAB. Genmab is the sponsor associated with the epcoritamab clinical program across its lymphoma and leukemia studies.

What phase is epcoritamab in?

Epcoritamab is in clinical development, with studies spanning Phase 1 through Phase 3. It is investigational and is not described as FDA approved. The program includes nine trials in total, of which eight are active and none are completed, with a combined planned enrollment of 2,771 participants.

What clinical trials is epcoritamab in?

Epcoritamab trials include NCT07819214, a Phase 2 study of epcoritamab as consolidation therapy for high-risk CLL patients on BTK inhibitors, and NCT07783594, a randomized Phase 2 study comparing epcoritamab with watch and wait in previously untreated low tumor burden follicular lymphoma. NCT07714421 is a Phase 1 study combining epcoritamab with Pola-R-mini-CHP in elderly or unfit DLBCL patients, and NCT07226752 is a Phase 3 sub-study in relapsed or refractory DLBCL in China.

Is epcoritamab the same as epcoritamab monotherapy?

Yes. Epcoritamab is also referred to as epcoritamab (monotherapy), which describes its use as a single agent rather than in combination with other therapies. Both names refer to the same monoclonal antibody developed by Genmab A/S.
