Brief summary

The objective of this investigation is to determine the following items in all patients receiving Torisel for a certain period after marketing: 1. Confirmation of efficacy and safety for medical practice use. 2. Investigation of factors that may influence the incidence of adverse events (Particularly priority investigation items). 3. Investigation of the incidence status and the risk factors for interstitial lung diseases.

Detailed description

Implemented as a Drug Use Investigation by Central Registration System

Interventions

DRUGTemsirolimus

The usual adult dosage is temsirolimus 25 mg once weekly, to be administered via gradual intravenous infusion over 30\ 60 minutes. The dosage is to be appropriately reduced according to patients' status.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions96 weeks at maximumAn adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to TORISEL Injection in a participant who received TORISEL Injection. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death, life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying), initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly. Relatedness to TORISEL Injection was assessed by the physician.
Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions of Major Investigation Items96 weeks at maximumAn adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to TORISEL Injection in a participant who received TORISEL Injection. Sixteen events were evaluated as major investigation items, and the result is presented in the table.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Response Rate96 weeks maximumClinical response was assessed based on the following 4 classes with reference to the New response evaluation criteria in solid tumours: Revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1) - Japanese Translation JCOG Version: complete response (CR), partial response (PR), progressive disease (PD), stable disease (SD). The overall response rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved CR or PR over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% confidence interval.
Response Rate Excluding Participants Evaluated as Unassessable96 weeks maximumClinical response was assessed based on the following 4 classes with reference to the New response evaluation criteria in solid tumours: Revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1) - Japanese Translation JCOG Version: complete response (CR), partial response (PR), progressive disease (PD), stable disease (SD). The percentage of participants who achieved CR or PR over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population excluding those evaluated as unassessable, was calculated.
