Matthew J. Matasar, MD, attending physician, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, discusses antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) in B-cell malignancies.

Polatuzumab vedotin, an ADC, is being studied in combination with rituximab (Rituxan) or obinutuzumab (Gazyva) in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

As for ADCs in this space, there has been success with brentuximab vedotin, which is approved by the FDA in classical Hodgkin lymphoma.

Clinicians referring a patient to MSK can do so by visiting msk.org/refer, emailing referapatient@mskcc.org, or by calling 833-315-2722.
