Background We conducted a post-marketing surveillance study to evaluate the clinical tolerability and safety of atezolizumab in Japanese patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods This prospective, observational post-marketing cohort study was conducted in NSCLC patients who received atezolizumab 1200 mg every 3 weeks at 770 facilities in Japan between April 18, 2018, and March 31, 2020 (study number UMIN000031978). Case report forms were completed, recording patient characteristics, treatment details, adverse events, adverse drug reactions (ADRs), their severity, onset and outcomes. Follow-up was for 12 months or until atezolizumab discontinuation. Results Overall, 2570 patients were included, median age was 69.0 years, and 69.9% were males. ADRs were reported in 29.1% of patients, most commonly pyrexia (4.2%). Grade ≥ 3 ADRs occurred in 9.7% of patients aged &amp;lt;75 and 9.7% of those aged ≥75 years. The incidence of Grade ≥ 3 ADRs was not affected by the number of lines of previous treatment or the presence or history of an autoimmune disorder. Immune-related ADRs of interest that occurred in &amp;gt;1% of patients were interstitial lung disease (ILD; 4.4%), endocrine disorder (4.3%), and hepatic dysfunction (2.8%). ILD was significantly more common in patients with a history of, or concurrent, ILD versus those without (P ≤ 0.001). Risk factors of Grade ≥ 3 ADRs were a history of, or concurrent, ILD. Grade 5 ADRs occurred in 35 patients, 11 of whom had concurrent ILD. Conclusions This large cohort study confirmed the clinical tolerability of atezolizumab in a real-world group of Japanese patients with NSCLC.
