TURALIO® Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy Program (tREMS): 3-year retrospective hepatic safety assessment.

Abstract

Aim: Hepatic safety data assessment from the TURALIO® (pexidartinib) Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (tREMS) Program. Methods: Retrospective 3-year assessment (August 2019 to June 2022) of hepatic events from the TURALIO® (pexidartinib) Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy Program. Results: A total of 451 patients, 369 prescribers, 2 wholesalers/distributors and 2 pharmacies were enrolled and certified. Twenty-one (4.7%) patients met the criteria for a hepatic adverse event or laboratory abnormality suggestive of serious and potentially fatal liver injury, all with onset within 2months of therapy. No new hepatic safety signals were identified. Conclusion: Results are consistent with the phase 3 ENLIVEN trial data. Liver enzyme monitoring, combined with early intervention, including dose modification and discontinuation, conducted in patients treated with pexidartinib mitigate the risk of potential hepatotoxicity.
