Epcoritamab

ATC Code L01FX27

Epcoritamab

Definition

A bispecific monoclonal antibody, with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Epcoritamab contains two antigen-recognition sites: one for human CD3, a T-cell surface antigen, and one for human CD20, a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) that is exclusively expressed on B-cells during most stages of B-cell development and is often overexpressed in B-cell malignancies. Upon administration, epcoritamab binds to both T-cells and CD20-expressing B-lineage tumor cells. The resulting cross-linkage may trigger a potent cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against the CD20-expressing tumor B-cells.

Also known as Anti-CD20/CD3 Bispecific Antibody GEN3013, DuoBody-CD3xCD20, EPCORITAMAB, Epcoritamab-bysp, Epkinly, GEN 3013, GEN-3013, GEN3013, Tepkinly — per NCIT
