Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

The safety of ENHERTU was evaluated in 404 patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who received at least one dose of ENHERTU 5.4 mg/kg in DESTINY-Breast02 [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. ENHERTU was administered by intravenous infusion once every three weeks. The median duration of treatment was 11 months (range: 0.7 to 45) for patients who received ENHERTU.
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 26% of patients receiving ENHERTU. Serious adverse reactions in >1% of patients who received ENHERTU were COVID-19, ILD, pneumonia, vomiting, fatigue, and nausea. Fatalities due to adverse reactions occurred in 2.5% of patients including pneumonitis (2 patients), acute myeloid leukemia, brain edema, COVID-19, hemorrhage, hepatitis B, malignant pleural effusion, pneumonia, and vasogenic cerebral edema (one patient each).

Dose interruptions due to adverse reactions occurred in 45% of patients treated with ENHERTU. The most frequent adverse reactions (>2%) associated with dose interruption were neutropenia, COVID-19, anemia, fatigue, leukopenia, upper respiratory tract infection, and thrombocytopenia.
Dose reductions occurred in 25% of patients treated with ENHERTU. The most frequent adverse reactions (>2%) associated with dose reduction were fatigue, nausea, neutropenia, and vomiting.
The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were nausea, decreased white blood cell count, decreased hemoglobin, decreased neutrophil count, fatigue, decreased lymphocyte count, decreased platelet count, increased alanine aminotransferase, vomiting, increased aspartate aminotransferase, alopecia, increased blood alkaline phosphatase, constipation, decreased appetite, decreased blood potassium, diarrhea, musculoskeletal pain, increased blood bilirubin, abdominal pain, and headache.

HER2-Mutant Unresectable or Metastatic NSCLC
DESTINY-Lung02 evaluated two dose levels (5.4 mg/kg [n=101] and 6.4 mg/kg [n=50]); however, only the results for the recommended dose of 5.4 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks are described below due to increased toxicity observed with the higher dose in patients with NSCLC, including ILD/pneumonitis.
The safety of ENHERTU was evaluated in 101 patients in DESTINY-Lung02 [see Clinical Studies (14.4)]. Patients received ENHERTU 5.4 mg/kg intravenously once every three weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of treatment was 8 months (range: 0.7 to 28) for patients who received ENHERTU. The median age was 59 years (range 31 to 84); 64% were female; 23% were White, 64% were Asian, and 14% were other races.
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 40% of patients receiving ENHERTU. Serious adverse reactions in >1% of patients who received ENHERTU were ILD/pneumonitis, pleural effusion, thrombocytopenia, dyspnea, nausea, pneumonia, vomiting, myocarditis, pulmonary embolism, and increased troponin I. Fatalities due to adverse reactions occurred in 3% of patients including ILD/pneumonitis, cerebrovascular accident, and pneumococcal sepsis (one patient each).
ENHERTU was permanently discontinued due to an adverse reaction in 17% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of ENHERTU were ILD/pneumonitis, pneumonia, blood bilirubin increased, hypokalemia, metastases to meninges, and myocarditis.
Dose interruptions of ENHERTU due to adverse reactions occurred in 50% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose interruption (>2%) included neutropenia, COVID-19, ILD/pneumonitis, fatigue, anemia, and pneumonia.
Dose reductions due to an adverse reaction occurred in 20% of patients. The most frequent adverse reactions (>2%) associated with dose reduction were neutropenia, fatigue, and decreased appetite.
The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were decreased hemoglobin, nausea, decreased white blood cell count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased lymphocyte count, increased aspartate aminotransferase, decreased albumin, decreased platelet count, fatigue, increased alanine aminotransferase, decreased appetite, constipation, increased alkaline phosphatase, vomiting, decreased blood potassium, diarrhea, alopecia, and musculoskeletal pain.

HER2-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric Cancer
The safety of ENHERTU was evaluated in 187 patients with locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma in DESTINY-Gastric01 [see Clinical Studies (14.5)]. Patients intravenously received at least one dose of either ENHERTU (N=125) 6.4 mg/kg once every three weeks or either irinotecan (N=55) 150 mg/m2 biweekly or paclitaxel (N=7) 80 mg/m2 weekly for 3 weeks. The median duration of treatment was 4.6 months (range: 0.7 to 22.3) in the ENHERTU group and 2.8 months (range: 0.5 to 13.1) in the irinotecan/paclitaxel group.
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 44% of patients receiving ENHERTU 6.4 mg/kg. Serious adverse reactions in >2% of patients who received ENHERTU were decreased appetite, ILD, anemia, dehydration, pneumonia, cholestatic jaundice, pyrexia, and tumor hemorrhage. Fatalities due to adverse reactions occurred in 2.4% of patients: disseminated intravascular coagulation, large intestine perforation, and pneumonia occurred in one patient each (0.8%).
ENHERTU was permanently discontinued in 15% of patients, of which ILD accounted for 6%.
Dose interruptions due to adverse reactions occurred in 62% of patients treated with ENHERTU. The most frequent adverse reactions (>2%) associated with dose interruption were neutropenia, anemia, decreased appetite, leukopenia, fatigue, thrombocytopenia, ILD, pneumonia, lymphopenia, upper respiratory tract infection, diarrhea, and decreased blood potassium.
Dose reductions occurred in 32% of patients treated with ENHERTU. The most frequent adverse reactions (>2%) associated with dose reduction were neutropenia, decreased appetite, fatigue, nausea, and febrile neutropenia.
The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were decreased hemoglobin, decreased white blood cell count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased lymphocyte count, decreased platelet count, nausea, decreased appetite, increased aspartate aminotransferase, fatigue, increased blood alkaline phosphatase, increased alanine aminotransferase, diarrhea, decreased blood potassium, vomiting, constipation, increased blood bilirubin, pyrexia, and alopecia.
Tables 22 and 23 summarize adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities observed in patients receiving ENHERTU 6.4 mg/kg in DESTINY-Gastric01.
