Purpose: Despite cisplatin-based chemotherapy being the standard treatment for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma, patients still experience low overall survival rates. Enfortumab vedotin has demonstrated improved survival outcomes compared to chemotherapy. Here, we present our institution's experience with three such cases and provide an updated literature review on the subject.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of medical records ensued to scrutinize the clinical and radiological progressions in 3 cases of urothelial carcinoma patients treated with Enfortumab Vedotin-ejfv were accessible for examination at our institution between 2023 and 2024.
Results: We reported three cases of advanced urothelial carcinoma refractory to prior cisplatin-based chemotherapy. While two patients received combination therapy with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, one of them modified treatment frequency due to financial constraints. The remaining patient underwent enfortumab vedotin monotherapy as per standard protocol. Notably, one patient displayed a partial response, with significant reduction in liver metastasis evident after just one cycle of combination therapy. The remaining two patients exhibited stable disease on imaging. In terms of safety, a generalized papular eruption led to a one-week postponement of the third dose for the patient on monotherapy. Symptoms subsided after referring the patient to dermatologist and received topical and oral steroid treatment. One of the patients receiving combination therapy showed peripheral skin pigmentations without sensory deficits. No other significant adverse events, classified as Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher, were observed, including those mentioned in previous studies such as peripheral sensory neuropathy or alopecia. Unfortunately, one patient succumbed to pneumonia six weeks after initiating enfortumab vedotin treatment, an occurrence deemed unrelated to the cancer or its treatment.
Conclusions: Enfortumab vedotin, with or without pembrolizumab, exhibited a well-tolerated safety profile, with careful monitoring for dermatological manifestations. Patients demonstrated either tumor regression or maintained disease stability following treatment; nevertheless, ongoing surveillance is warranted. To our understanding, this series stands as the singular documentation delineating the efficacy and safety profile of enfortumab vedotin in advanced urothelial carcinoma within the Taiwanese context so far.
