Sacituzumab govitecan, sold under the brand name Trodelvy, is a medication used to treat triple-negative breast cancer and urothelial cancer.[3][1] Specifically it is used in cases were the cancer has spread and other treatments have failed.[2] It is given by injection into a vein.[4]

Common side effects include nausea, low neutrophils, diarrhea, tiredness, low red blood cells, vomiting, hair loss, constipation, decreased appetite, rash and abdominal pain.[2] Other side effects may include infertility and anaphylaxis.[2] Use in pregnancy or breastfeeding may harm the baby baby.[5] It is a TROP-2-directed antibody joined to a topoisomerase inhibitor.[2][4]

Sacituzumab govitecan was approved for medical use in the United States in 2020.[2] As of 2021 it is not available in Europe due to a lack of supply.[6] It costs about 310,500 USD per year as of 2021 for a 70 kg person.[7]

Medical uses

Sacituzumab govitecan is indicated for the treatment of adults with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who received at least two prior therapies for metastatic disease;[8] people with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) who have received two or more prior systemic therapies, at least one of them for metastatic disease;[9] and for people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC) who previously received a platinum-containing chemotherapy and either a programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) or a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor.[10]

Dosage

It is generally used at a dose of 10 mg/kg every 1st and 8th day in a three week period.[2]

Mechanism

Sacituzumab govitecan is a conjugate of the humanized anti-Trop-2 monoclonal antibody linked with SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan.[11] Each antibody having on average 7.6 molecules of SN-38 attached.[12] SN-38 is too toxic to administer directly to patients, but linkage to an antibody allows the drug to specifically target cells containing Trop-2.

Sacituzumab govitecan is a Trop-2-directed antibody and topoisomerase inhibitor drug conjugate, meaning that the drug targets the Trop-2 receptor that helps the cancer grow, divide and spread, and is linked to topoisomerase inhibitor, which is a chemical compound that is toxic to cancer cells.[3] Approximately two of every ten breast cancer diagnoses worldwide are triple-negative.[3] Triple-negative breast cancer is a type of breast cancer that tests negative for estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein.[3] Therefore, triple-negative breast cancer does not respond to hormonal therapy medicines or medicines that target HER2.[3]

History

Immunomedics announced in 2013, that it had received fast track designation from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the compound as a potential treatment for non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, and metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. Orphan drug status was granted for small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer.[13][14] In February 2016, Immunomedics announced that sacituzumab govitecan had received an FDA breakthrough therapy designation (a classification designed to expedite the development and review of drugs that are intended, alone or in combination with one or more other drugs, to treat a serious or life-threatening disease or condition) for the treatment of people with triple-negative breast cancer who have failed at least two other prior therapies for metastatic disease.[15][16]

Sacituzumab govitecan was added to the proposed INN list in 2015,[17] and to the recommended list in 2016.[18]

Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was approved for medical use in the United States in April 2020.[3][19][9][20][8]

Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was approved based on the results of IMMU-132-01, a multicenter, single-arm clinical trial (NCT01631552) of 108 participants with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who had received at least two prior treatments for metastatic disease.[3][8][19] Of the 108 participants involved within the study, 107 were female and 1 was male.[21] Participants received sacituzumab govitecan-hziy at a dose of 10 milligrams per kilogram of body weight intravenously on days one and eight every 21 days.[8][21] Treatment with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.[21] Tumor imaging was obtained every eight weeks.[8][19] The efficacy of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was based on the overall response rate (ORR) – which reflects the percentage of participants that had a certain amount of tumor shrinkage.[3][8] The ORR was 33.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 24.6 to 43.1). [3][8][21] Additionally, with the 33.3% of study participants who achieved a response, 2.8% of participants experienced complete responses.[21] The median time to response in participants was 2.0 months (range, 1.6 to 13.5), the median duration of response was 7.7 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.9 to 10.8), the median progression free survival was 5.5 months, and the median overall survival was 13.0 months.[21] Of the participants that achieved an objective response to sacituzumab govitecan-hziy, 55.6% maintained their response for six or more months and 16.7% maintained their response for twelve or more months.[3][8]

Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was granted accelerated approval along with priority review, breakthrough therapy, and fast track designations.[3][8][9] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted approval of Trodelvy to Immunomedics, Inc.[3]

In April 2021, the FDA granted regular approval to sacituzumab govitecan for people with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) who have received two or more prior systemic therapies, at least one of them for metastatic disease.[9] Efficacy and safety were evaluated in a multicenter, open-label, randomized trial (ASCENT; NCT02574455) conducted in 529 participants with unresectable locally advanced or mTNBC who had relapsed after at least two prior chemotherapies, one of which could be in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting, if progression occurred within twelve months.[9] Participants were randomized (1:1) to receive sacituzumab govitecan, 10 mg/kg as an intravenous infusion, on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day (n=267) cycle or physician's choice of single agent chemotherapy (n=262).[9]

In April 2021, the FDA granted accelerated approval to sacituzumab govitecan for people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC) who previously received a platinum-containing chemotherapy and either a programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) or a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor.[10] Efficacy and safety were evaluated in TROPHY (IMMU-132-06; NCT03547973), a single-arm, multicenter trial that enrolled 112 participants with locally advanced or mUC who received prior treatment with a platinum-containing chemotherapy and either a PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor.[10]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[22]
