Abstract
The article presents intermediate results of analysis of effectiveness and tolerance of Ipilimumab applied within the framework of program of broadened access CA184-089 EAP. Ipilimumab is a new immune stimulator blocking receptors of CTLA4 om lymphocytes and regenerating anti-tumor immune response. The analysis covered 52 patients receiving treatment from October 2011 to August 2012 in the N.N. Blokhin Russian oncologic national center. The effectiveness of pharmaceutical corresponded to previously published data. The median of total survival in all population of patients made up to 13.7 months (confidence range 95% from 8.0 to 19.5 months). The six-moths total survival made up to 77.5±5.9%, one-year survival made up to 45.9±7.9%. No new undesirable occurrences were detected. Altogether, 9 severe undesirable occurrences were registered (from third to fifth degrees of severity according CTCAE V4.0) in seven patients (13.5%), one with lethal outcome (1.9%).
