Efficacy and safety of ibrutinib in relapsed/refractory CLL and SLL in Japan: a post-marketing surveillance.

ABSTRACT: Ibrutinib is approved in Japan for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) based on the results of global and domestic clinical studies. Following approval, we conducted an all-case post-marketing surveillance in Japanese patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL newly initiated on ibrutinib treatment between May 2016-September 2017. Of the 323 patients enrolled, the safety and efficacy analysis sets comprised 289 and 205 patients, respectively. The overall response rate with ibrutinib treatment was 64.4%, and the estimated 52-week progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 71.7 and 79.1%, respectively. No significant difference in the PFS rate was observed among patients with and without del(17p) (P = 0.160); however, PFS was significantly longer in patients who received 1 prior line of therapy versus >1 prior lines of therapy (P = 0.007). Adverse events occurred in 74.0% of patients, and typically occurred early (≤12 weeks) after ibrutinib initiation, followed by a decline in incidence thereafter. The overall rates of infection, bleeding, and arrhythmia were 22.5, 12.8, and 4.8%, respectively. Grade ≥3 bleeding events and atrial fibrillation occurred in 2.4% of patients each. The efficacy and safety profile of ibrutinib treatment in routine clinical practice was consistent with clinical trials and previously reported domestic data.UMIN-CTR Clinical Trials Register ID: UMIN000021963.

Project description:BackgroundNivolumab has been approved for treating ≥ 10 cancer types. However, there is limited information on the incidence of rare, but potentially serious, treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), as well as notable TRAEs in patients with certain medical disorders or older patients in Japan.MethodsWe performed pooled analyses of data from published post-marketing surveillance in Japan of nivolumab monotherapy for patients with malignant melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, head and neck cancer, and gastric cancer to determine the frequencies of 20 categories of TRAEs of special interest overall and in patient groups with higher perceived safety risks (history of autoimmune disease, interstitial lung disease, tuberculosis, or hepatitis B/C; patients vaccinated during nivolumab treatment; and older patients [≥ 75 years]).ResultsThe overall population comprised 7421 patients treated with nivolumab. TRAEs were reported in 49.1% of patients, with grade ≥ 3 TRAEs in 16.7%. Endocrine disorders (14.4%), hepatobiliary disorders (10.9%), and interstitial lung disease (7.0%) were the three most common categories (any grade). The incidences of rare TRAEs with high risk of becoming serious, which occurred in < 1% of patients, were consistent with those in previous reports. The frequencies of TRAEs were not markedly increased in the specified patient groups relative to the overall population.ConclusionTo our knowledge, this is the largest study examining the safety of nivolumab-treated patients in real-world clinical practice including rare but potentially serious TRAEs. We found no new signals in the safety of nivolumab among the patient groups relative to the overall population, and no additional safety measures are required in these groups.
