Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin): Market Withdrawal
Audience: Oncology, Hematology
[Posted 06/21/2010]
ISSUE: FDA notified healthcare professionals that results from a recent
clinical trial raised new concerns about the product’s safety, and the drug
failed to demonstrate clinical benefit to patients enrolled in trials.
BACKGROUND: Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin), indicated for treatment of
acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a bone marrow cancer, was approved in May 2000
under the FDA’s accelerated approval program. A confirmatory, post approval
clinical trial was begun by Wyeth (now Pfizer) in 2004. The trial was
designed to determine whether adding Mylotarg to standard chemotherapy
demonstrated an improvement in clinical benefit (survival time) to AML
patients. The trial was stopped early when no improvement in clinical benefit
was observed, and after a greater number of deaths occurred in the group of
patients who received Mylotarg compared with those receiving chemotherapy
alone.
RECOMMENDATION: Mylotarg will not be commercially available to new patients.
Patients who are currently receiving the drug may complete their therapy
following consultation with their health care professional. Health care
professionals should inform all patients receiving Mylotarg of the product’s
potential safety risks. Any future use of Mylotarg in the United States will
require submission of an investigational new drug application to the FDA.

Pfizer進行的post-approval clinical trial在實驗初期即因臨床效果不好而
終止,並發現在接受Gemtuzumab的族群死亡率較接受單一化療的受試者還高。
故FDA將Gemtuzumab下市。
* 新發病的病人:不建議使用Gemtuzumab
* 正在用Gemtuzumab的病人:可能可以繼續完成療程,並請諮詢專業醫療人員。
* 醫事人員:需知會正在使用Gemtuzumab的病人此藥的安全性疑慮。
