Administration of Enfortumab Vedotin after Immune-Checkpoint Inhibitor and the Prognosis in Japanese Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma: A Large Database Study on Enfortumab Vedotin in Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Enfortumab vedotin shows promise as a targeted therapy for advanced urothelial carcinoma, particularly in patients who have previously received platinum-based chemotherapy and an immune-checkpoint inhibitor. The EV-301 phase III trial demonstrated significantly improved overall survival and response rates compared to standard chemotherapy. However, more data, especially from larger real-world studies, are needed to further assess its effectiveness in Japanese patients.

Methods

A total of 6007 urothelial cancer patients inducted with pembrolizumab as a second-line treatment were analyzed. Among them, 563 patients received enfortumab vedotin after pembrolizumab, while 443 patients received docetaxel or paclitaxel after pembrolizumab, and all were included in the study for efficacy as a life prolonging agent.

Results

The enfortumab vedotin group showed a longer overall survival than the paclitaxel/docetaxel group (p = 0.013, HR: 0.71). In multivariate analysis, enfortumab vedotin induction was the independent risk factor for overall survival (p = 0.013, HR: 0.70). There were no significant differences in cancer-specific survival.

Conclusions

Enfortumab vedotin prolonged the overall survival for Japanese advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma patients compared to paclitaxel or docetaxel after pembrolizumab treatment.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with advanced urothelial carcinoma have poor overall survival after platinum-containing chemotherapy and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) or programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor treatment.MethodsWe conducted a global, open-label, phase 3 trial of enfortumab vedotin for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who had previously received platinum-containing chemotherapy and had had disease progression during or after treatment with a PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive enfortumab vedotin (at a dose of 1.25 mg per kilogram of body weight on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle) or investigator-chosen chemotherapy (standard docetaxel, paclitaxel, or vinflunine), administered on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. The primary end point was overall survival.ResultsA total of 608 patients underwent randomization; 301 were assigned to receive enfortumab vedotin and 307 to receive chemotherapy. As of July 15, 2020, a total of 301 deaths had occurred (134 in the enfortumab vedotin group and 167 in the chemotherapy group). At the prespecified interim analysis, the median follow-up was 11.1 months. Overall survival was longer in the enfortumab vedotin group than in the chemotherapy group (median overall survival, 12.88 vs. 8.97 months; hazard ratio for death, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.56 to 0.89; P = 0.001). Progression-free survival was also longer in the enfortumab vedotin group than in the chemotherapy group (median progression-free survival, 5.55 vs. 3.71 months; hazard ratio for progression or death, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.75; P<0.001). The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was similar in the two groups (93.9% in the enfortumab vedotin group and 91.8% in the chemotherapy group); the incidence of events of grade 3 or higher was also similar in the two groups (51.4% and 49.8%, respectively).ConclusionsEnfortumab vedotin significantly prolonged survival as compared with standard chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who had previously received platinum-based treatment and a PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor.

Project description:ImportanceMetastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) presents a therapeutic challenge with poor outcome. Enfortumab vedotin has emerged as a promising treatment, necessitating a comprehensive evaluation of its effectiveness and safety.ObjectiveTo synthesize the available evidence on enfortumab vedotin, both as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab, as an mUC treatment for the purpose of guiding clinical decision-making and future research.Data sourcesCochrane Library, MEDLINE (via PubMed), Google Scholar, and Web of Science were searched from database inception to August 31, 2024. Major conference abstracts from 2019 to 2024 were also included. Search strategy used a combination of Medical Subject Heading terms and free-text keywords related to mUC and enfortumab vedotin.Study selectionRandomized clinical trials and prospective studies investigating enfortumab vedotin in adult patients with mUC were included. Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria.Data extraction and synthesisTwo independent reviewers extracted data and assessed study quality using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool 2 and Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Studies of Interventions tool. The meta-analysis used a random effects model, while a network meta-analysis was performed using a frequentist approach.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary outcomes were disease control rate (DCR), objective response rate (ORR), and 1-year survival rate.ResultsThe 11 included studies (3 randomized clinical trials [27.3%] and 8 nonrandomized prospective studies [72.7%]) involved 2128 patients. Of these patients, 563 (26.5%) received enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab, 814 (38.3%) received enfortumab vedotin without pembrolizumab, and 751 (35.3%) received chemotherapy. Enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab was associated with a pooled DCR of 86% (95% CI, 83%-89%), ORR of 68% (95% CI, 64%-71%), and a 1-year survival rate of 79% (95% CI, 75%-82%). Enfortumab vedotin monotherapy had a pooled DCR of 73% (95% CI, 70%-76%), ORR of 43% (95% CI, 40%-47%), and a 1-year survival rate of 52% (95% CI, 48%-56%). Network meta-analysis revealed that enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab significantly outperformed chemotherapy in ORR (odds ratio [OR], 3.47; 95% CI, 1.49-8.09; P = .004) and 1-year survival (OR, 2.32; 95% CI, 1.75-3.06; P < .001).Conclusions and relevanceIn this systematic review and meta-analysis, enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab showed high response rates in first-line settings, while enfortumab vedotin monotherapy was associated with clinical benefit in later lines of therapy. These findings underscore the importance of personalized treatment approaches, and future research is warranted to refine enfortumab vedotin-based therapies for mUC management.
