Abstrakt: Objectives: Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is an established pharmacotherapy for metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC); however, its adverse events (AEs) cannot be overlooked. The study investigated the efficacy and safety of biweekly EV administration.
Methods: Patients with mUC who received EV at our institution were included in the study. Eligible patients were classified into two groups as follows: those who received EV on a standard schedule (standard group) and those who received EV on a biweekly schedule (biweekly group); the treatment outcomes and AEs between the two groups were compared.
Results: Nine and 19 patients were in the standard group and biweekly groups, respectively. The progression-free survival, overall survival, and overall response rate were not significantly different between the two groups. AEs following EV administration, such as decreased appetite (P < .01), pruritus (P < .01), rash maculopapular (P < .01), anemia (P = .04), and liver dysfunction (P = .04), were significantly more frequent in the standard group. Grade 3 or higher AEs, such as pruritus (P = .03) and rash maculopapular (P < .01), were significantly more frequent in the standard group. Furthermore, significantly more patients in the standard group had to be given a reduced dose due to adverse events (P = .02).
Conclusions: Biweekly administration of EV may be safer without compromising therapeutic efficacy than the standard schedule.
