Tivdak is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have experienced disease progression on or after chemotherapy. It is typically used when the cancer has spread to other parts of the body or has returned after initial treatment.
Tivdak is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that consists of a monoclonal antibody linked to a cytotoxic agent. The antibody portion targets and binds to tissue factor, a protein found on the surface of certain cancer cells. Once bound, the medication delivers the cytotoxic agent directly into the cancer cell, where it interferes with cell division and growth, leading to cell death.
Tivdak is administered by intravenous (IV) infusion. Common side effects may include fatigue, nausea, peripheral neuropathy, and bleeding. As it is a targeted therapy with a cytotoxic component, healthcare providers will monitor patients closely during treatment. Patients should discuss all medications and health conditions with their doctor before starting treatment, and report any unusual symptoms or side effects promptly.
