Introduction: Vismodegib (Erivedge; Roche), a Hedgehog pathway inhibitor (HPI), is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic metastatic basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and locally advanced BCC inappropriate for surgery or radiotherapy. Due to the known risk of HPI teratogenicity, the Erivedge Pregnancy Prevention Program (PPP) was introduced at approval (2013) as part of the EU Risk Management Plan.
Methods: Structured, quantitative Web-based surveys were conducted in 2015 (Wave 1), 2016 (Wave 2), and 2017/2018 (Wave 3) among prescribing oncologists and dermato-oncologists in Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, and the United Kingdom to assess the effectiveness of the Erivedge PPP.
