FDA Approval Summary: Enfortumab Vedotin Plus Pembrolizumab for Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma
Cette étude analyse les données de l'essai ayant conduit la "Food and Drug Administration" à autoriser l'utilisation de l'enfortumab védotin en combinaison avec le pembrolizumab pour traiter les patients atteints d'un carcinome urothélial de stade localement avancé ou métastatique
On December 15, 2023, the FDA granted traditional approval to enfortumab vedotin-ejfv plus pembrolizumab (EV + Pembro) for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (la/mUC). Substantial evidence of effectiveness was obtained from EV-302/KEYNOTE-A39 (NCT04223856), an open-label, randomized, trial evaluating EV + Pembro versus cisplatin or carboplatin plus gemcitabine (Plat + Gem) in patients with previously untreated la/mUC. A total of 886 patients were randomized (1:1) to receive EV 1.25 mg/kg intravenously on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity plus pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously on day 1 of each 21-day cycle for up to 35 cycles, or Plat + Gem for up to 6 cycles. Dual primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) determined by blinded independent central review and overall survival (OS). Median PFS was 12.5 months (95% CI: 10.4, 16.6) in the EV + Pembro arm and 6.3 months (95% CI: 6.2, 6.5) in the Plat + Gem arm (HR 0.450 [95% CI: 0.377, 0.538]; p-value < 0.0001). Median OS was 31.5 months (95% CI: 25.4, NE) in the EV + Pembro arm and 16.1 months (95% CI: 13.9, 18.3) in the Plat + Gem arm (HR 0.468 [95% CI: 0.376, 0.582]; p-value < 0.0001). The safety profile of EV + pembrolizumab was similar to that observed in EV-103/KEYNOTE-869 in cisplatin-ineligible patients with la/mUC. This article summarizes the data and the FDA thought process supporting traditional approval of EV + pembrolizumab, as well as additional exploratory analyses conducted by FDA.
