Abstract

This study aimed to investigate whether Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is suitable for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma and to perform a meta-analysis of its efficacy and safety. Five studies involved 584 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The results of single-arm meta-analysis showed that with EV at 1.25 mg/kg, the objective response rate (ORR) was 47%. The meta-analysis indicated that EV showed good efficacy and safety in the patient population of locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.
