11:32AM Seattle Genetics highlights data from broad ADCETRIS (brentuximab vedotin) development program at ASH 2013 (SGEN) 41.65 -2.70 : Co summarized ADCETRIS (brentuximab vedotin) data in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma from multiple presentations at the 55th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition taking place in New Orleans, Louisiana, December 7-10, 2013. Highlights include encouraging interim data from a phase 2 clinical trial evaluating ADCETRIS as a single-agent for previously untreated HL patients age 60 or older and updated data from a phase 1 clinical trial of ADCETRIS in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of newly diagnosed mature T-cell lymphoma (MTCL) patients, commonly referred to as peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). In addition, data were presented from an investigator-sponsored phase 2 clinical trial evaluating ADCETRIS in relapsed cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). ADCETRIS is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) directed to CD30. ADCETRIS is currently not approved for the treatment of frontline HL, frontline MTCL or relapsed CTCL.
