On August 31, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted fast track and orphan drug designations to VLS-101 for the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).1

VLS-101 is an antibody-drug conjugate targeting tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1). A first-in-human, phase I, dose-escalation trial (NCT03833180) is currently investigating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of VLS-101 in patients with relapsed or refractory hematological malignancies, including MCL.

VLS-101 could represent a new therapeutic option for patients with MCL.
