Managing potential adverse events during treatment with enfortumab vedotin + pembrolizumab in patients with advanced urothelial cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin-based chemotherapy has been the standard of care for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (la/mUC). Enfortumab vedotin, an antibody-drug conjugate directed to Nectin-4, and pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, are two therapies that have individually provided a survival benefit in patients with la/mUC. The combination regimen of enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab was evaluated in EV-302 (KEYNOTE-A39; NCT0422385), a phase 3 study that showed statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival, progression-free survival, and a key secondary endpoint of overall response rate versus chemotherapy. Based on these results and those from the EV-103 (KEYNOTE-869; NCT03288545) Dose Escalation cohort, Cohort A, and Cohor
