Mogamulizumab

Mogamulizumab, sold under the brand name Poteligeo, is a humanized, afucosylated monoclonal antibody targeting CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4).[3] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved it in August 2018 for treatment of relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides and Sézary disease.[4] It was approved in Japan in 2012, for the treatment of relapsed or refractory CCR4+ adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATCLL) and in 2014, for relapsed or refractory CCR4+ cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL).[3] The latter approval was based on study with 28 subjects.[5]

The precursor to mogamulizumab was a mouse anti-human CCR4 IgG1 mAb (KM2160), that was made in 1996 in a collaboration between Kouji Matsushima of University of Tokyo and Kyowa Hakko Kirin. Kyowa humanized it, and expressed the humanized gene in a CHO cell line in which FUT8 had been knocked out, which produced antibodies with no fucose in the Fc region.[3][6] This is thought to enhance its antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.[7] It was first tested in humans in 2007.[6]

Kyowa licensed rights for use outside of cancer to Amgen in 2008, for $100 million up front and $420 million in biodollars.[8] Amgen ran a Phase I study to explore its use in asthma.[9] Amgen terminated the agreement in 2014.[8]

As of 2014, there were reports that mogamulizimab can cause serious skin rashes and some cases of Stevens–Johnson syndrome.[9]

In 2017, the US FDA granted it a priority review for CTCL.[10] Full approval was granted in August 2018.[4] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[11]

Research

Mogamulizumab is being explored as a treatment for HTLV-1–Associated Myelopathy. An early Phase 1-2a study showed decreased in proviral loads, as well as inflammatory markers in the CSF. 79% of the patients showed reduction in spasticity and 32% showed decrease in motor disability.[12]
