590 Background: Cetuximab (ERBITUX) was approved in Jul 2008 in Japan with indication for EGFR-positive and unresectable metastatic or refractory colorectal cancer. Post-marketing surveillance is required by Japanese Health Authority to collect, obtain, verify or validate information on the safety, efficacy and quality of medicines. We conducted this surveillance in all patients treated with cetuximab to access in practical use since clinical data on Japanese patients are limited. Methods: The target number of patients was 1,800. Following adverse drug reactions were investigated: infusion reaction, skin disorders, interstitial lung diseases, electrolyte abnormalities (including hypomagnesemia), heart toxicities, gastrointestinal disorders, thrombosis/embolism, delayed wound healing, and eye disorders. Results: Between Sep 2008 until Jan 2010, 2,126 pts registered, 2,006 pts were evaluable for safety (safety population), 1,687 pts for efficacy (efficacy population). Of the 2,006 pts, 1,975 pts (98.5%) were EGFR-positive. Patients characteristics: male/female; 1,234/772 (61.5%/38.5%), median age; 64 (range 18-87), site of primary tumor; colon/rectal/others (multiple selection); 1,235/775/3 (61.6%/38.6%/0.2%), PS0/PS1; 1,370/630 (68.3%/31.4%), combination chemotherapy; cetuximab monotherapy/CPT-11/FOLFIRI: 460/1,255/256 (22.9%/62.56%/12.8%). Of the 2,006 pts, 133 pts (6.6%) and 1,869 pts (93.2%) were treated in second-line and in third-line or later treatment, respectively. The adverse drug reactions incidence was 89.9%. Incidence of skin disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, electrolyte abnormality including hypomagnesaemia, and infusion reaction were 83.7%, 23.1%, 11.5%, and 5.7%, respectively. Efficacy result: Of the 1,687 pts, 658 pts (39.0%) were evaluated to be effective. Of the 658 pts, 614 pts (93.3%) experienced skin adverse reactions. Conclusions: This post-marketing surveillance confirms the safety and efficacy of cetuximab in the Japanese population treated in clinical practice. The outcome of this surveillance with Japanese 2,006 pts would be useful for clinical use of cetuximab. [Table: see text]
