Safety Overview

PALBACE® has a well-characterised and consistent safety profile.1-6

   

PALOMA Trials

   

Dose reductions or modifications and discontinuation rates across the PALOMA trials are as follows1,5:

  • In an early pooled analysis of PALOMA trials, 38.4% of patients receiving PALBACE® had dose reductions or modifications due to any ARs and 5.2% permanently discontinued treatment, regardless of the combination¹
  • In an updated pooled safety analysis of PALOMA trials up to 5 years, 40.6% of patients receiving PALBACE® had ≥1 dose reduction and 11.1% permanently discontinued treatment due to ARs5

Neutropenia

   

Limited or no correlation between neutropenia and viral infections

   

In a long-term pooled analysis, overlapping of viral infections (all grades) and Grade ≥3 neutropenia occurred in 10.5% of patients treated with PALBACE®, with 99.8% of viral infections being Grade 1 or 2. Overlapping of Grade ≥3 viral infections occurred in only 0.2% of patients with Grade ≥3 neutropenia.5,*

   

Febrile neutropenia

   

Febrile neutropenia has been reported in about 2% of patients exposed to PALBACE® in a pooled analysis of the PALOMA trials.1

   

Discontinuation rates due to neutropenia

   

In a pooled analysis of the PALOMA trials up to 5 years5, 1.7% of patients permanently discontinued treatment due to neutropenia.

   

Neutropenia can be managed by dose delay or modification without an apparent effect on efficacy

   

 In 2 exploratory analyses from PALOMA-2 and -3, dose reductions did not appear to have an effect on efficacy.4,5

   

   

*Patients who have additional risk factors that make them susceptible to infection (e.g. elderly or patients with weakened immune systems) should be carefully monitored for the signs of infection.⁵ As per the PALBACE® LPD, patients should be monitored for the signs and symptoms of infection and treated as medically appropriate.¹
