Adverse events

Trial of Nivolumab vs Therapy of Investigator's Choice in Recurrent or Metastatic Head and Neck Carcinoma (CheckMate 141) · Source last updated 2022-10-05

Results reported by the registry submitting party. Population, time horizon, units and missing values must be read together.

Adverse events occurred during the study; they are not necessarily caused by treatment. Serious events are not interchangeable with severe/grade 3–4 events. These safety populations may differ from efficacy populations.

Collection time frame
Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events were monitored from first dose to 100 days post last dose (Up to a maximum of approximately 70 months). Participants were assessed for All Cause Mortality from their date of randomization until the study was completed (up to approximately 87 months)
Other-event reporting threshold
5%

The number at Risk for All-Cause Mortality represents all Randomized Participants. The number at Risk for Serious Adverse Events and Other (Not Including Serious) Adverse Events represents all participants that received at least 1 dose of study medication

Participants affected / participants at risk, as reported
Safety groupSerious eventsOther eventsDeaths
Nivolumab 3mg/kg

Nivolumab was provided at a dose of 3 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) using an intravenous (IV) solution for Injection every 2 weeks until disease progression

165 / 236210 / 236220 / 240
Investigator Choice

Participants were provided a dose of Cetuximab intravenous (IV) solution for injection at a dose of 400 milligrams per square meter (mg/m\^2) for the first dose followed that a doses of 250 mg/m\^2 weekly until disease progression OR a Methotrexate intravenous (IV) solution for Injection at a dose of 40 or 60 mg/m\^2 weekly until disease progression OR a Docetaxel intravenous (IV) solution for Injection at a dose of 30 or 40 mg/m\^2 weekly until disease progression. The decision regarding which treatment the participant received was at the discretion of the investigator and referred to as Investigators Choice
