Russia's Health Ministry has approved Elahere (mirvetuximab soravtansine), AbbVie's first original antibody-drug conjugate for targeted treatment of ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers, with marketing authorisation valid until July 2031.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Biotech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

The Russian approval of this targeted cancer drug opens access to a market with limited advanced treatments. If you work in biotech or cancer therapy in Russia, there is a new precedent and potential competitive pressure to engage with local regulatory pathways now.
