Inotuzumab ozogamicin
Inotuzumab ozogamicin, sold under the brand name Besponsa, is an antibody-drug conjugate medication used to treat relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is administered by intravenous infusion.
Inotuzumab ozogamicin consists of a humanized monoclonal antibody against CD22 (inotuzumab), linked to a cytotoxic agent from the class of calicheamicins called ozogamicin.
The US Food and Drug Administration considers it to be a first-in-class medication.
Inotuzumab ozogamicin is used to treat relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
In March 2024, the US Food and Drug Administration approved inotuzumab ozogamicin for the treatment of children aged one year and older with relapsed or refractory CD22-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The US Food and Drug Administration label for the use of inotuzumab ozagamicin carries a boxed warning concerning the risk of liver toxicity, in particular hepatic veno-occlusive disease, which has been fatal in some people. The risk of this is higher in people who take the drug before having hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and more people die who have hematopoietic stem cell transplantation following treatment with this drug, than people who have hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, taking other chemotherapies. The risk gets higher as more rounds of treatment with inotuzumab ozogamicin are administered.
The most common serious adverse reactions in people taking the drug in the clinical trial leading to approval include infections (23%), loss of neutrophils with fever (11%), hemorrhage (5%), stomach pain (3%), fever (3%), VOD (2%), and tiredness (2%).
More than 20% of people had the following adverse reactions: loss of platelets (51%), loss of neutrophils (49%), infections (48%), anemia (36%), leukopenia (35%), tiredness (35%), hemorrhage (33%), fever (32%), nausea (31%), headache (28%), loss of neutrophils with fever (26%), elevated transaminases (26%), stomach pain (23%), and jaundice (21%).[citation needed]
