- measure
- Number of Participants With Different Type of Adverse Events
- timeFrame
- Observation period of maximum up to 7.1 months; duration of this retrospective study was approximately 1.5 months
- description
- An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study medication without regard to possibility of causal relationship to it.Index date was defined as the initiation of first-line axitinib (used in combination with IO therapy) on or after May 2019, which marked FDA approval of axitinib in combination with avelumab for first-line advanced RCC treatment. Observation period was time from index date to the earliest of initiation of a second line therapy, death, loss to follow-up, or date of chart abstraction. Data, index date, and observation period were on the basis of data extracted from medical charts of participants.
- measure
- Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events
- timeFrame
- 6 months
- description
- AE was considered serious when it: resulted in death, life-threatening, requires in-participant hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was an important medical event that may jeopardize the participant or may require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. Index date was defined as the initiation of first-line axitinib (used in combination with IO therapy) on or after May 2019, which marked FDA approval of axitinib in combination with avelumab for first-line advanced RCC treatment. Observation period was time from index date to the earliest of initiation of a second line therapy, death, loss to follow-up, or date of chart abstraction. Data, index date, and observation period were on the basis of data extracted from medical charts of participants.
