ODAC Votes in Favor of Biosimilarity of Celltrion’s CT-P10

As reported here, the Oncologic Drug Advisory Committee (ODAC) held a public hearing today at the U.S. Food & Drug Administration to discuss and vote on Celltrion’s Biologics License Application for CT-P10, a proposed biosimilar of Genentech’s U.S.-licensed rituximab product Rituxan.   The hearing included presentations from various speakers from industry, the FDA, and Celltrion.  All 16 committee members agreed that the totality of the evidence presented by Celltrion provided adequate justification to support licensure of CT-P10 for the three proposed indications and voted in favor of licensure. The proposed indications are: (1) relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular, CD20-positive, B-cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) as a single agent; (2) previously untreated follicular, CD20-positive, B-cell NHL in combination with first-line chemotherapy and, in patients achieving a complete or partial response to a rituximab product in combination with chemotherapy, as single-agent maintenance therapy; and (3) non-progressing (including stable disease), low-grade, CD20-positive, B-cell NHL as a single agent after first-line cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone chemotherapy.
