Efficacy: Japan Phase 3 Trial

Efficacy and Safety of ADSTILADRIN From
an Ongoing Phase 3 Trial in Japan

Interim 3-month results add to the growing body of evidence for the efficacy and safety of ADSTILADRIN

The efficacy and safety of ADSTILADRIN is currently undergoing
evaluation in NCT05704244, a phase 3, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study in Japan. This interim analysis reported complete response (CR)
rates and adverse events (AEs) at 3 months for 25 patients with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin–unresponsive non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer, 20 of whom have carcinoma in situ (CIS) ± high-grade Ta/T1 (n=20/25).

Patients received a single 75-mL intravesical instillation once every 3 months in the absence of high-grade disease (no
reinduction permitted). The primary endpoint was CR at any time in the CIS ± high-grade Ta/T1 cohort. Secondary endpoints include durability of response, incidence of and time to cystectomy, overall survival (OS), and safety.

EFFICACY

3 months (primary endpoint)

75%
Early findings at 3 months indicate there was no disease progression at the time of recurrence.

The efficacy of ADSTILADRIN is consistent with that observed in recent real-world data from the Mayo Clinic (CR rate, 79% [n=19/24])1,2

Important Safety Information

INDICATION

ADSTILADRIN is a non-replicating adenoviral vector-based gene therapy indicated for the treatment of adult patients with high-risk Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS: ADSTILADRIN is contraindicated in patients with prior hypersensitivity reactions to interferon alfa or to any component of the product.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS:

  • Risk with delayed cystectomy: Delaying cystectomy in patients with BCG-unresponsive CIS could lead to development of muscle invasive or metastatic bladder cancer, which can be lethal. If patients with CIS do not have a complete response to treatment after 3 months or if CIS recurs, consider cystectomy.
  • Risk of disseminated adenovirus infection: Persons who are immunocompromised or immunodeficient may be at risk for disseminated infection from ADSTILADRIN due to low levels of replication-competent adenovirus. Avoid ADSTILADRIN exposure to immunocompromised or immunodeficient individuals.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Administer ADSTILADRIN by intravesical instillation only. ADSTILADRIN is not for intravenous use, topical use, or oral administration.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS: Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during ADSTILADRIN treatment and for 6 months after the last dose. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during ADSTILADRIN treatment and for 3 months after the last dose.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: The most common (>10%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities (>15%), were glucose increased, instillation site discharge, triglycerides increased, fatigue, bladder spasm, micturition (urination urgency), creatinine increased, hematuria (blood in urine), phosphate decreased, chills, pyrexia (fever), and dysuria (painful urination).
