“Even with existing therapies to treat these lymphomas, there is a significant medical need for alternative and accessible treatment options for patients who are unable to tolerate current treatments or whose treatments have failed,” said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab. “Together with our partner AbbVie, we believe epcoritamab has the potential to become a core therapy for patients with B-cell malignancies, and the submission of these regulatory applications to the FDA and EMA is an important step in potentially bringing epcoritamab to people living with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas.”
