"The abstracts being presented at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) 2018 highlight the depth of our clinical program in multiple solid tumors and hematological malignancies," said Robert Lechleider, M.D., Senior Vice President, Clinical Development at Seattle Genetics. "Of note, an oral presentation will feature updated data from a phase 1 study of enfortumab vedotin for patients with metastatic urothelial cancer. Data from this study formed the basis of the recent FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for enfortumab vedotin. In addition, multiple posters featuring sub-analyses from the ECHELON-1 trial of ADCETRIS provide continued strong rationale for ADCETRIS combination use in the treatment of patients with frontline Stage 3 and 4 classical Hodgkin lymphoma."

The abstracts published in advance of the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) meeting were made available yesterday on the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) website at www.asco.org.
