In the (N=1550) pooled safety population, the most common adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, in ≥30% of patients included neutrophil count decreased (42%), upper respiratory tract infection (39%), platelet count decreased (34%), hemorrhage (30%), and musculoskeletal pain (30%).1
LONG-TERM SAFETY ANALYSIS IN MCL
The overall safety profile was unchanged at 35 months.1,3
Most ARs occurred during the early stage of BRUKINSA treatment. There were no additional cases of:
- Atrial fibrillation
- Atrial flutter
- Grade ≥3 cardiac ARs
With 35.3 months of follow-up, the most common (≥20%) TEAEs observed were decreased neutrophil count (46.5%), upper respiratory tract infection (38.4%), rash (36.0%), decreased white blood cell count (33.7%), and decreased platelet count (32.6%); most were Grade 1/2 events.
The prevalence of neutropenia with any grade or Grade ≥3 decreased after the first year; no Grade ≥3 neutropenia occurred after 18 months.
No new TEAEs led to treatment discontinuation or dose reduction during the longer follow-up time.
