6%), larynx (52%/36%), subcutaneous
tissue (49%/45%), mucous membranes (48%/39%), esophagus (44%/35%),
skin (42%/33%), brain (11%/9%), lung (11%/8%), spinal cord (4%/3%),
and bone (4%/5%) in the ERBITUX and radiation versus radiation
alone arms, respectively.
The incidence of Grade 3 or 4 late radiation toxicities were
generally similar between the radiation therapy alone and the
ERBITUX plus radiation therapy arms.
The most common adverse events seen in patients with carcinomas
of the head and neck receiving ERBITUX in combination with
radiation therapy (n=208) versus radiation alone (n=212) were
mucositis-stomatitis (93%/94%), acneform rash (87%/10%), radiation
dermatitis (86%/90%), weight loss (84%/72%), xerostomia (72%/71%),
dysphagia (65%/63%), asthenia (56%/49%), nausea (49%/37%),
constipation (35%/30%) and vomiting (29%/23%). The most common
adverse events seen in patients with carcinomas of the head and
neck receiving ERBITUX as a single agent (N=103) were acneform rash
(76%), asthenia (45%), pain (28%), fever (27%) and weight loss
(27%).
The most common adverse events seen in patients with mCRC
receiving ERBITUX with irinotecan (n=354) or ERBITUX as a single
agent (n=420) were acneform rash (88%/90%), asthenia/malaise
(73%/48%), diarrhea (72%/25%), nausea (55%/29%), abdominal pain
(45%/26%), vomiting (41%/25%), fever (34%/27%), constipation
(30%/26%), and headache (14%/26%).
