Polatuzumab vedotin
Polatuzumab vedotin, also known as Polivy, is a targeted medicine used to treat specific types of B-cell lymphoma, a cancer that starts in certain white blood cells. It's given into a vein through an IV infusion. This medicine works by finding a particular protein on lymphoma cells and then delivering a chemotherapy drug directly inside them. This focused approach helps to stop the growth of cancer cells while aiming to protect healthy cells.
