3.1Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The pooled safety population described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to TEVIMBRA as a single agent in 2390 patients enrolled in three randomized open-label, active-controlled studies (BGB-A317-301, RATIONALE-302, BGB-A317-303) and six open-label, single-arm studies (BGB-A317-209, BGB-A317-208, BGB-A317-204, BGB-A317-203, BGB-A317-102, BGB-A317_Study_001), which enrolled 307 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and 2083 patients with advanced or recurrent tumors. TEVIMBRA was administered at a dose of 200 mg intravenously once every 3 weeks, except in study BGB-A317_Study_001 where patients also received other dosage regimens. Among the 2390 patients, 38% were exposed for longer than 6 months, and 23% were exposed for longer than 12 months.
3.2Postmarketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of TEVIMBRA. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis (including fatal cases).
Immune system disorders: Immune-mediated cystitis.
