The incidence rates of treatment-emergent adverse events observed in clinical studies for EC in combination with pembrolizumab are presented in table 8 & 9 below.
Events are included as Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) based on the incidence rates of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) in the placebo-controlled DTC study together with events from other indications assessed in the context of TEAE incidence rates across study treatment arms, the known pharmacology of lenvatinib and the underlying indication.
EC 2L Combination With Pembrolizumab
The safety of lenvatinib in combination with pembrolizumab was investigated in Study 309, a multicenter, open-label, randomized (1:1), active-controlled trial in 827 patients with advanced endometrial carcinoma previously treated with at least one prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen in any setting, including in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. Patients with active autoimmune disease or a medical condition that required immunosuppression were ineligible. Patients received lenvatinib 20 mg orally once daily with pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks (n=406) or treatment of investigator’s choice (n=388), consisting of 60 mg/m2 doxorubicin every 3 weeks or 80 mg/m2 paclitaxel given weekly, 3 weeks on/1 week off.
The median duration of study treatment was 7.6 months (range 1 day to 26.8 months). The median duration of exposure to lenvatinib was 6.9 months (range 1 day to 26.8 months).
Tables 8 and 9 summarize treatment emergent adverse events and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, in patients receiving lenvatinib in combination with pembrolizumab in Study 309.
