  • The median duration of therapy was 3.5 months (range: 1 day to 29.4 months) for patients receiving STIVARGA
  • 58.3% of patients receiving STIVARGA required dose interruptions for AEs
    • 48% of patients receiving STIVARGA had their doses reduced due to AEs
  • 10.4% of STIVARGA-treated patients reported AEs that resulted in discontinuation vs 3.6% of patients who received placebo

Selected common TEAEs occurred during the first cycle of treatment with STIVARGA1, 2

  • The most frequently observed adverse drug reactions (≥30%) in STIVARGA-treated patients vs placebo treated patients in HCC, respectively, were pain (55% vs 44%), HFSR/PPES (51% vs 7%), asthenia/fatigue (42% vs 33%), diarrhea (41% vs 15%), hypertension (31% vs 6%), infection (31% vs 18%), and decreased appetite and food intake (31% vs 15%)1
