ADCETRIS is increasingly being incorporated into frontline treatment of advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), particularly through the A+AVD regimen (brentuximab vedotin + doxorubicin, vinblastine and dacarbazine). Takeda reported that ADCETRIS growth has been primarily driven by increased first-line Hodgkin lymphoma use. In the first half of FY2025, ADCETRIS growth was 11.5% at constant exchange rates (CER). A recent meta-analysis of four randomized trials involving 3,591 patients also found that BV-containing frontline regimens significantly improved progression-free survival versus non-BV regimens (HR 0.58).
In June 2025, the European Commission approved ADCETRIS with ECADD (BrECADD) for adults with newly diagnosed Stage IIB with risk factors, Stage III or Stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma. The approval was based on the Phase III HD21 trial, in which BrECADD demonstrated non-inferior PFS and superior treatment-related morbidity compared with eBEACOPP. This provides another frontline ADCETRIS-based regimen in Europe and could support additional utilization in advanced-stage disease.
In February 2025, the FDA approved ADCETRIS in combination with lenalidomide + rituximab for adults with relapsed/refractory LBCL after >=2 systemic therapies who are ineligible for autologous HSCT or CAR-T therapy. In ECHELON-3, median overall survival was 13.8 months with ADCETRIS + R2 versus 8.5 months with R2 alone (HR 0.63). The overall response rate was also higher at 64% versus 42%, creating a new commercial opportunity beyond Hodgkin lymphoma and systemic anaplastic large-cell lymphoma.
ADCETRIS is a CD30-directed antibody-drug conjugate that delivers the microtubule-disrupting agent MMAE into CD30-positive malignant cells. Its established indications span classical Hodgkin lymphoma, systemic anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, peripheral T-cell lymphoma and CD30-expressing cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, with additional indications in different regions. Takeda reports that ADCETRIS has received regulatory authorization in 80 countries for relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and sALCL, providing a broad international commercial base.
Takeda's FY2026 results show that ADCETRIS generated JPY 140.2 billion (~US$0.95 billion at a simple ¥147/US$ conversion) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, an 8.7% increase at actual exchange rates and 5.3% at CER. Takeda specifically attributed the increase to strong demand in Europe and Growth & Emerging Markets. In Q1 FY2026 (April-June 2026), sales reached JPY 48.5 billion, up 14.4% at CER, with growth led particularly by Latin America.
ADCETRIS Recent Developments
In February 2025, the US FDA approved a new combination regimen utilizing ADCETRIS alongside lenalidomide and a rituximab product. This landmark eighth US indication is for adults with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (including DLBCL) who have received at least two prior lines of systemic therapy and are ineligible for stem cell transplants or CAR T-cell therapy. The approval was backed by positive overall survival data from the Phase III ECHELON-3 clinical trial.

ADCETRIS Drug Summary
ADCETRIS is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) developed by Seagen, now part of Pfizer, that targets CD30, a cell-surface marker expressed on malignant cells in Hodgkin lymphoma and several other CD30-positive lymphomas. The drug consists of a recombinant chimeric IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against CD30, linked through a protease-cleavable linker to the potent antimitotic agent monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE). Following intravenous administration, brentuximab vedotin binds to CD30-expressing tumor cells and is internalized, after which proteolytic cleavage releases MMAE inside the cell. MMAE binds to tubulin and disrupts the microtubule network, leading to cell-cycle arrest and apoptotic death of the malignant cell. ADCETRIS is approved for multiple CD30-positive hematologic malignancies, including classical Hodgkin lymphoma, systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL), and certain peripheral T-cell lymphomas, with indications varying by treatment setting and combination regimen. Its clinical use is associated with important adverse effects such as peripheral neuropathy, neutropenia, serious infections, infusion-related reactions, and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), requiring appropriate monitoring during treatment. The report provides ADCETRIS's sales, growth barriers and drivers, post usage and approvals in multiple indications.
