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, 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 Products that were granted approvals but subsequently withdrawn from the market are included in the table. The European public assessment reports for human medicines published by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), and information about pending European Commission decisions and medicines under evaluation can be found via the EMA’s ‘Find medicine’  page. Information about therapeutics approved in the US can be found at Drugs@FDA. Antibody therapeutics that were granted a first approval in any region other than the EU or US are listed at the end of the table.

An Excel file of the data can be downloaded here. Biosimilar products are excluded.

Mogamulizumab (POTELIGEO®), humanized anti-CCR4 IgG1 first approved in Japan on March 30, 2012 for relapsed or refractory CCR4-positive adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma.
Itolizumab (Alzumab), humanized anti-CD6 IgG1 approved in India in January 2013 for psoriasis.
Rmab (RabiShield), human anti-rabies virus G glycoprotein IgG1 approved in India in 2016 for post-exposure prophylaxis of rabies.
Sintilimab (Tyvyt), human anti-PD-1 mAb approved in China in December 2018 for Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
Toripalimab, humanized anti-PD-1 mAb approved in China in December 2018 for melanoma.
Netakimab, anti-IL-17 mAb approved in Russia in 2019 for plaque psoriasis.

In addition,  the antibody therapeutic vaccine Vaxira® (racotumomab, 1 E 10; murine IgG1 kappa) is approved in Argentina and Cuba. It is an anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody that induces an immune response against glycolylated gangliosides (NeuGcGM3) present in tumor cells. Originally developed in Cuba at the Center of Molecular Immunology, Vaxira® is marketed in Argentina and Cuba for the treatment of recurrent or advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or NSCLC independent of the disease stage when no other standard therapy can be administered for lung cancer.
