Relative Dose Intensity
TORISEL patients on average received 92% of the planned weekly dose1
- TORISEL mean weekly dose was 23 mg, and the max planned weekly dose was 25 mg1
- IFN-α mean weekly dose was 30 MU, and the max planned weekly dose was 54 MU1
Reasons For Discontinuation
Patient discontinuation due to adverse events was 7.2% with TORISEL2
* Subjects with a global deterioration of health status requiring discontinuation of treatment without objective evidence
of disease progression at that time should be classified as having “symptomatic deterioration.”2
† Other reasons for discontinuation in the TORISEL arm were disease progression and investigator’s decision.2
‡ Other reasons for discontinuation in the IFN-α arm were lost to follow up, investigator’s discretion, patient underwent
surgery, and patient’s request.2
