Antibody therapeutics approved or in regulatory review in the EU or US

The Antibody Society maintains a comprehensive list of approved antibody therapeutics and those in regulatory review in the European Union (EU) or United States (US). In the table below, product candidates undergoing review are listed first, and approved products are listed in reverse chronological order by year of first approval. Products that were granted approvals but subsequently withdrawn from the market are included in the table. Biosimilar products are excluded.

• European Medicines Agency’s medicine-related data can be downloaded here, and information about medicines under evaluation can be found here.
• Information about therapeutics approved in the US can be found at Drugs@FDA.
• Antibodies to watch in 2023. (MAbs. Vol. 15.) includes details about antibody therapeutics that may enter regulatory review or be granted approvals in 2023. Past versions (2010-2022) of the Antibodies to Watch article series can be found here.
• Data for antibody therapeutics that were granted a first approval in regions other than the EU or US are found here.

During 2022, 13 antibody therapeutics were granted first approvals in either the US or EU.
