Efficacy and Tolerability of Tebentafusp in Metastatic Uveal Melanoma: A Real-life Retrospective Multicentre Study
Résumé
Metastatic uveal melanoma is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. Usual treatments have not proven effective. Tebentafusp, a bispecific protein targeting melanoma cells and T lymphocytes, is the first approved treatment with a proven survival benefit in a randomized clinical. Our purpose was to evaluate tebentafusp’s real-life efficacy and tolerability for metastatic uveal melanoma. This retrospective study included patients from 14 French centres. Twenty-three patients were included. One-year survival was 66%; median progression-free survival was 5.7 months. Objective response rate was 23% and best overall response was complete remission for 4% of patients; partial remission for 18%, stable disease for 41%, and progressive disease for 36%. The most frequent adverse events were fever, chills, pruritus, and rash; 30% experienced severe adverse events. No death or treatment discontinuation was linked to adverse events. These data showed better overall survival with tebentafusp than that reported in historical cohorts.
