UNII 98DE7VN88D - MIRVETUXIMAB SORAVTANSINE
|
Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate. The antibody is an engineered IgG1 directed against folate receptor alpha (FRα). The function of the antibody portion is to bind to FRα expressed on the surface of ovarian cancer cells. DM4 is a microtubule inhibitor attached to the antibody via a cleavable linker. Upon binding to FRα, mirvetuximab soravtansine is internalised followed by intracellular release of DM4 via proteolytic cleavage. DM4 disrupts the microtubule network within the cell, resulting in cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. |
