Availability & biosimilar status
Biologics have no small-molecule generics; biosimilar competition is tracked in the FDA Purple Book.
Why the date isn’t exact: Biosimilar timing can change because patents may be challenged, settled, licensed, added or removed, and litigation can move the real date earlier or later.
🛈 What do these terms mean?
- Biologic patent
- A patent the reference product’s maker has publicly listed. A biosimilar generally can’t launch until these expire — unless they’re invalidated or resolved in a settlement.
- Reference-product exclusivity
- A flat 12 years of FDA market protection from the biologic’s first licensure (the BPCIA). No biosimilar can be licensed before it ends, regardless of patents.
- Interchangeable exclusivity
- The first interchangeable biosimilar can earn a period as the only interchangeable version (pharmacists can substitute it without the prescriber).
- Earliest biosimilar (LOE)
- The latest of all the dates above — the soonest a biosimilar can realistically reach the market. Litigation and settlements can move it earlier.
Biologics have no small-molecule “generics” — competition comes from FDA-licensed biosimilars, tracked in the FDA Purple Book.
| Code | What it grants | Expires |
|---|---|---|
| RefProduct | Reference-product exclusivity (12-year, BPCIA) — no biosimilar can be licensed before this date | May 14, 2037 |

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS S trong CYP3A I nhibitors : concomitant use with EMRELIS may increase the AUC of MMAE. Monitor for increased risk of adverse reactions to EMRELIS. ( 7.1 )
7.1Effect of Other Drugs on EMRELIS Strong CYP3A Inhibitors Concomitant use with strong CYP3A inhibitors may increase unconjugated MMAE AUC [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) ] , which may increase the risk of EMRELIS adverse reactions. Monitor patients for adverse reactions when EMRELIS is given concomitantly with strong CYP3A inhibitors.
👥 Use in Specific Populations ▾
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Severe or Moderate Hepatic I mpairment : Avoid use of EMRELIS. ( 8.6 ) Lactation : Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 ) Infertility : May impair fertility. ( 8.3 )
8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on the mechanism of action and findings in animals, EMRELIS can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )] . There are no available human data on EMRELIS use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. In an animal reproduction study, administration of the small molecule component of EMRELIS, MMAE, to pregnant rats during organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal mortality and structural abnormalities at exposures similar to the clinical exposure at the recommended dose [see Data ] .
Advise patients of the potential risks to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data No embryo-fetal development studies in animals have been performed with telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv.
In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats, administration of two intravenous doses of MMAE, the small molecule component of EMRELIS, on gestational days 6 and 13 caused embryo-fetal mortality and structural abnormalities, including protruding tongue, agnathia, malrotated limbs, and gastroschisis compared to controls at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg (approximately 2 times the human area under the curve [AUC] at the recommended dose).
8.2Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv or MMAE in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise lactating women not to breastfeed during treatment with EMRELIS and for 1 month after the last dose.
8.3Females and Males of Reproductive Potential EMRELIS can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 ) ] . Pregnancy Testing Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating EMRELIS treatment. Contraception Females Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with EMRELIS and for 2 months after the last dose.
Males Based on genotoxicity findings, advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with EMRELIS and for 4 months after the last dose. Infertility Females Based on findings in animal studies with MMAE-containing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), EMRELIS may impair female fertility. The effect on fertility is reversible [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.1 )] .
Males Based on findings from animal studies, EMRELIS may impair male fertility. The reversibility of this effect is unknown [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.1 )] .
8.4Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of EMRELIS have not been established in pediatric patients.
8.5Geriatric Use Of the 168 patients with previously treated EGFR wild-type non-squamous NSCLC with c-Met protein overexpression treated with EMRELIS in LUMINOSITY, 50% were ≥65 years of age and 12% were ≥75 years of age. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between older and younger patients.
8.6Hepatic Impairment Avoid use of EMRELIS in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 x ULN and any AST). Patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment are likely to have increased exposure to MMAE, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions. EMRELIS has not been studied in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment.
No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin ≤ULN and AST >ULN or total bilirubin >ULN and ≤1.5 x ULN and any AST) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) ] .

🧬 Clinical Pharmacology ▾
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1Mechanism of Action Telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv is a c-Met-directed antibody drug conjugate (ADC). The antibody is a humanized IgG1κ directed against c-Met, the cell surface receptor for hepatocyte growth factor. The small molecule, MMAE, is a microtubule-disrupting agent, attached to the antibody via a protease cleavable linker.
Following binding to c-Met-expressing cells, telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv undergoes internalization and intracellular cleavage of MMAE. MMAE disrupts the microtubule network of actively dividing cells, subsequently inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. Telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv exhibited antitumor activity in xenograft models of NSCLC.
12.2Pharmacodynamics Exposure Response Relationships Exposure-response relationships for efficacy and time course of pharmacodynamic response have not been fully characterized. Higher telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv exposure was associated with increased rates of Grade 3 peripheral neuropathy, and Grades 2 and 3 ocular surface disorders. Higher unconjugated MMAE exposure was associated with increased rates of Grade ≥3 adverse reactions and fatal adverse reactions.
Cardiac Electrophysiology There is insufficient information to characterize the effect of telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv on the QT interval.
12.3Pharmacokinetics The exposure parameters of telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv (ADC) and unconjugated MMAE (cytotoxic component of EMRELIS) are summarized in Table 7. The plasma exposure of the ADC and unconjugated MMAE increased proportionally over a dose range of 1.2 to 3.3 mg/kg (0.64 to 1.7 times the approved recommended dose). ADC time to maximum plasma concentrations (Tmax) occurs at the end of intravenous infusion while MMAE Tmax occurs approximately 5 days after EMRELIS administration.
Minimal accumulation of the ADC or MMAE occurs. Table 7.

3.4L (16.5%CV) for telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv. MMAE plasma protein binding ranges from 68% to 82% in vitro . Elimination The elimination half-life is approximately 3 days for the ADC and approximately 4 days for MMAE. The estimated clearance (CL) is
1.3L/day (31.5%CV) for the ADC and 76 L/day (52.1%CV) for MMAE. Metabolism Telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv catabolism has not been studied in humans; however, it is expected to undergo catabolism to small peptides, amino acids, unconjugated MMAE, and unconjugated MMAE-related catabolites. MMAE is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4.
Specific Populations No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of the ADC or unconjugated MMAE were observed based on age (30 to 87 years), sex, race (65% White, 32% Asian, and 3% Black), body weight (34 to 144 kg), mild or moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 to 89 mL/min, estimated by Cockcroft-Gault), or mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin ≤ULN and AST >ULN or total bilirubin >ULN and ≤1.5 x ULN and any AST). The effect of severe renal impairment (CLcr <30 mL/min), end-stage renal disease with or without dialysis, or moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 × ULN and any AST) on the pharmacokinetics of telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv or unconjugated MMAE is unknown.
Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches: No clinical studies have evaluated the potential for drug-drug interactions. Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitor: MMAE AUC is predicted to increase by 1.4-fold following concomitant administration of EMRELIS with ketoconazole (a strong CYP3A inhibitor).

🧬 Mechanism of Action ▾
12.1Mechanism of Action Telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv is a c-Met-directed antibody drug conjugate (ADC). The antibody is a humanized IgG1κ directed against c-Met, the cell surface receptor for hepatocyte growth factor. The small molecule, MMAE, is a microtubule-disrupting agent, attached to the antibody via a protease cleavable linker.
Following binding to c-Met-expressing cells, telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv undergoes internalization and intracellular cleavage of MMAE. MMAE disrupts the microtubule network of actively dividing cells, subsequently inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. Telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv exhibited antitumor activity in xenograft models of NSCLC.

🔬 Clinical Studies ▾
14 CLINICAL STUDIES Previously Treated EGFR Wild-Type N on-squamous NSCLC with High c-Met Protein Overexpression LUMINOSITY The efficacy of EMRELIS was evaluated in the LUMINOSITY study (NCT03539536), a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, multi-cohort clinical trial. Eligible patients were required to have locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with c-Met protein overexpression and treatment with prior systemic therapy (including no more than one line of prior chemotherapy) in the locally advanced or metastatic setting.
The study excluded patients who had received radiation therapy to the lungs <6 months prior to enrollment and patients who had a history of ILD/pneumonitis requiring treatment with steroids or ILD/pneumonitis within 3 months of the first dose. Patients received EMRELIS at 1.9 mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The major efficacy outcome measure was overall response rate (ORR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 as assessed by a blinded independent central review (BICR).
An additional efficacy outcome measure was duration of response (DOR) by BICR. The efficacy population included 84 patients with non-squamous, EGFR wild-type NSCLC with high c-Met protein overexpression who had received prior systemic therapy. High c-Met protein overexpression was defined as ≥50% of tumor cells with strong (3+) membrane staining on archival or recent tissue samples by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and was determined by prospective testing at a central laboratory prior to enrollment using the MET (SP44) clinical trial assay (CTA).
Of the 84 patients with high c-Met protein overexpression identified by central testing using the CTA, tissue samples from 38/84 (45%) patients were tested retrospectively using the VENTANA MET (SP44) RxDx assay. One sample was unevaluable. Of the 37 samples retested and evaluable, 32 (87%) samples were confirmed to have high c-Met protein overexpression, defined as ≥50% of tumor cells with strong (3+) membrane and/or cytoplasmic staining.
The median age was 64 years (range: 38 to 83 years); 75% were male; 61% were White, 1.2% were Black or African American, 38% were Asian; none were of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. Twenty-five percent had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0 and 74% had ECOG PS of 1; 19% were never smokers, 68% were former smokers, and 13% were current smokers; 99% had Stage IV disease; and 19% of patients had previously treated brain metastases. The median number of lines of prior therapies was 1 (range 1 - 3); 73% of patients had one line, 24% had two lines, and 3.6% had three lines of prior systemic therapy; 96% of patients had prior platinum therapy, 82% had prior immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1), 6% had prior targeted therapy, and 3.6% had prior MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
13.1Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Carcinogenicity studies in animals have not been performed with telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv or the small molecule MMAE. Mutagenesis MMAE was positive for genotoxicity in the in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus study through an aneugenic mechanism. MMAE was not mutagenic in the bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay or the L5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma forward mutation assay.
Impairment of Fertility Fertility studies with telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv or MMAE have not been conducted. However, results of repeat-dose toxicity studies in rats and monkeys indicate the potential for telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv to impair male and female reproductive function and fertility. In a 2-week repeat-dose toxicology study in rats, telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv administered at doses ≥6 mg/kg (≥12 times the human exposure [AUC] at the recommended dose) resulted in decreased number/degeneration of germ cells in the testes largely due to loss of spermatogonia.
The reversibility of these findings was not assessed. In a 4-week repeat-dose toxicology study in sexually immature monkeys, telisotuzumab vedotin-tllv administered at doses ≥3 mg/kg (≥4 times the human exposure [AUC] at the recommended dose) resulted in degeneration of granulosa cells and decreased number of tertiary follicles in the ovaries and degeneration/necrosis of endometrial glands in the uterus. There was evidence of reversibility after an 8-week recovery period.
