Here we present longer-term safety and efficacy data for everolimus that include the open-label extension phase (cutoff date, April 1, 2014). METHODS 118 patients who had renal angiomyolipoma associated with TSC (n=113) or sLAM (n=5) were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive 10 mg/day everolimus (n=79) or placebo (n=39). Angiomyolipoma response rate, the primary endpoint, was defined as the proportion of patients with confirmed ≥50% reduction in sum of volumes of all target angiomyolipoma relative to baseline in the absence of an increase in kidney volume (>20% from nadir), no new angiomyolipoma lesions, and no angiomyolipoma-related bleeding of ≥ grade 2. Adverse events (AEs) were monitored at each visit. RESULTS At the initial cutoff (June 30, 2011), everolimus was superior to placebo for angiomyolipoma response rate (42% vs 0%, P<0.0001). Following these positive results, all patients still in the study were offered open-label everolimus in the extension phase. As of April 1, 2014, 112 patients (median age, 32 years [range 18-62]) received ≥1 dose of everolimus. Median duration of exposure was 39.8 months (range, 0.5-57.3). Angiomyolipoma response rate was 56.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 46.6%-65.6%). At week 96 (n=98), 80.6% and 63.3% of patients had reductions ≥30% and ≥50%, respectively, in angiomyolipoma volume. Progression-free rate at 48 months was 78.3% (95% CI, 63.6%-87.6%). AEs were similar to previous reports and remained mostly grade 1 or 2. AEs most commonly reported in ≥20% of patients were nasopharyngitis (44.6%), stomatitis (42.9%), hypercholesterolemia (35.7%), acne and headache (31.3% each), urinary tract infection (30.4%), aphthous stomatitis (25.9%), diarrhea (24.1%), hypertension (23.2%), cough (21.4%), and nausea (20.5%). Incidence of emerging AEs decreased over the study period. The most frequent grade 3 AEs (≥3%) were blood phosphorus decreased (4.5%) and amenorrhea (5.6%, n=4 out of 71 females aged 10-55). The only grade 4 event occurring in ≥2 patients was blood uric acid increased (2.7%). CONCLUSIONS A sustained reduction in angiomyolipoma volume was seen with continued everolimus treatment. No new safety concerns were noted. © 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 193Issue 4SApril 2015Page: e763 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information John Bissler More articles by this author J.
