Landscape of Subcutaneous Administration Strategies for Monoclonal Antibodies in Oncology.

Abstract

In recent decades, subcutaneous (SC) administration of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has emerged as a promising alternative to intravenous delivery in oncology, offering comparable therapeutic efficacy while addressing patient preferences. This perspective article provides an in-depth analysis of the technological landscape surrounding SC mAb administration in oncology. It outlines various technologies under evaluation across developmental stages, spanning from preclinical investigations to the integration of established methodologies in clinical practice. Additionally, this perspective article explores emerging trends and prospective trajectories, shedding light on the evolving landscape of SC mAb administration. Furthermore, it emphasizes key checkpoints related to quality attributes essential for optimizing mAb delivery via the SC route. This review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and healthcare policymakers, offering insights into the advancement of SC mAb administration in oncology and its implications for patient care.
