6 ADVERSE REACTIONS
The following adverse reactions are discussed elsewhere in the labeling: •     Ocular Disorders [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
•     Pneumonitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
•     Peripheral Neuropathy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
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 pooled safety population described in Warnings and Precautions reflect exposure to ELAHERE in 682 patients with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer at 6 mg/kg AIBW administered intravenously once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity in Study 0416, Study 0417, Study 0403 (NCT02631876), and Study 0401 (NCT01609556). The median duration of treatment was 4.4 months (range: 1.0 to 30.0). In the pooled safety population, the most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were increased aspartate aminotransferase, fatigue, increased alanine aminotransferase, blurred vision, nausea, increased alkaline phosphatase, diarrhea, abdominal pain, keratopathy, peripheral neuropathy, musculoskeletal pain, decreased lymphocytes, decreased platelets, decreased magnesium, decreased hemoglobin, dry eye, constipation, decreased leukocytes, vomiting, decreased albumin, decreased appetite, and decreased neutrophils.
Epithelial Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
Study 0416
The safety of ELAHERE was evaluated in Study 0416, a multicenter, open-label, active-controlled, randomized, two-arm, study in patients (n=453) with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Patients received ELAHERE 6 mg/kg AIBW once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of treatment was 5 months (range: 0.69 to 27.4).
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 24% of patients treated with ELAHERE. The most common (≥2%) serious adverse reactions were intestinal obstruction (5%), abdominal pain (3%), and pleural effusion (3%).
Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 3% of patients, including intestinal obstruction, dyspnea in the setting of subileus, neutropenic sepsis, cardiopulmonary failure, respiratory failure, ischemic stroke, and pulmonary embolus.
Permanent discontinuation of ELAHERE due to adverse reactions occurred in 9% of patients. The most common (≥1%) adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation were pneumonitis (2%), blurred vision (1%), and peripheral neuropathy (1%).
Dosage delays of ELAHERE due to an adverse reaction occurred in 54% of patients treated with ELAHERE.
Adverse reactions which required dosage delays in ≥3% of patients included blurred vision (22%), keratopathy (19%), dry eye (7%), neutropenia (6%), pneumonitis (6%), photophobia (5%), cataract (4%), and peripheral neuropathy (4%).
Dose reductions of ELAHERE due to an adverse reaction occurred in 34% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in ≥3% of patients included blurred vision (14%), keratopathy (10%), peripheral neuropathy (6%), and dry eye (5%).
Tables 4 and 5 summarize adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, occurring in ≥10% of patients who received ELAHERE in Study 0416.

Study 0417
The safety of ELAHERE was evaluated in Study 0417, a single-arm, open-label study in patients (n=106) with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer [see Clinical Studies (14)].
Patients received ELAHERE 6 mg/kg AIBW once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of treatment was 4.2 months (range: 0.7 to 13.3).
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 31% of patients treated with ELAHERE. The most common (≥2%) serious adverse reactions were intestinal obstruction (8%), ascites (4%), infection (3%), and pleural effusion (3%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 2% of patients, including small intestinal obstruction (1%) and pneumonitis (1%).
Permanent discontinuation of ELAHERE due to adverse reactions occurred in 11% of patients. The most common (≥2%) adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation were intestinal obstruction (2%) and thrombocytopenia (2%). One patient (0.9%) permanently discontinued ELAHERE due to visual impairment (unilateral decrease to BCVA < 20/200 that resolved to baseline after discontinuation).
Dosage delays of ELAHERE due to an adverse reaction occurred in 39% of patients treated with ELAHERE.
Adverse reactions which required dosage delays in ≥3% of patients included blurred vision (15%), keratopathy (11%), neutropenia (6%), dry eye (5%), cataracts (3%), and increased gamma-glutamyltransferase (3%).
Dose reductions of ELAHERE due to an adverse reaction occurred in 20% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in ≥3% of patients included blurred vision (9%) and keratopathy (7%).
Table 6 summarizes the adverse reactions (≥10%) in patients treated with ELAHERE in Study 0417.

Immunogenicity: Anti-Drug Antibody-Associated Adverse Reactions
In studies 0416, 0417, 0401, and 0403 in patients with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who received ELAHERE at 6 mg/kg AIBW administered intravenously once every 3 weeks, 9% (57/626) developed anti-drug antibodies. Infusion reactions (including bronchospasm, erythema, eyelid erythema, flushing, hypersensitivity, periorbital edema, rash, allergic rhinitis, face edema) occurred in 26% (15/57) of patients with anti-drug antibodies and in 7% (41/569) who did not develop anti-drug antibodies [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.6)].


Reporting of suspected adverse reactions
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Any suspected adverse events should be reported to the Ministry of Health according to the National Regulation by using an online form https://sideeffects.health.gov.il/
