Uses
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE ROZLYTREK is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of: Adult patients with ROS1- positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as detected by an FDA-approved test. ( 1.1 ) Adult and pediatric patients older than 1 month of age with solid tumors that: have a neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase ( NTRK) gene fusion, as detected by an FDA-approved test without a known acquired resistance mutation, are metastatic or where surgical resection is likely to result in severe morbidity, and have progressed following treatment or have no satisfactory alternative therapy. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on tumor response rate and durability of response.
Dosage
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Select patients for treatment based on the presence of ROS1 rearrangement(s) or NTRK gene fusion. ( 2.1 ) Evaluate left ventricular ejection fraction, serum uric acid levels and QT interval and electrolytes prior to ROZLYTREK initiation. ( 2.2 ) Select appropriate dosage form: oral capsules, capsules prepared as an oral suspension or oral pellets. ( 2.3 ) Use capsules prepared as suspension for enteral tube administration. Do not use pellets for enteral tube administration. ( 2.3 ) Administer ROZLYTREK capsules, capsules prepared as a suspension, or pellets once daily, with or without food. ( 2.4 ) Adult Dosage for ROS1- Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: 600 mg orally once daily.
Side Effects
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Congestive Heart Failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Central Nervous System Effects [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Skeletal Fractures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Hyperuricemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ] QT Interval Prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ] Vision Disorders [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were fatigue, constipation, dysgeusia, edema, dizziness, diarrhea, nausea, dysesthesia, dyspnea, myalgia, cognitive impairment, increased weight, cough, vomiting, pyrexia, arthralgia, and vision disorders.
Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Moderate and Strong CYP3A Inhibitors : For adult and pediatric patients 2 years and older, reduce the dose of ROZLYTREK if coadministration of moderate or strong CYP3A inhibitors cannot be avoided. ( 2.8 , 7.1 ) For pediatric patients less than 2 years, avoid coadministration with ROZLYTREK. ( 7.1 ) Moderate and Strong CYP3A Inducers : Avoid coadministration with ROZLYTREK. ( 7.1 ) Drugs That Prolong QTc Interval : Avoid concomitant use with ROZLYTREK.
Warnings
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) : Assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) prior to initiation of ROZLYTREK. Monitor patients for clinical signs and symptoms of CHF. For patients with myocarditis, with or without a decreased ejection fraction, MRI or cardiac biopsy may be required to make the diagnosis. For new onset or worsening CHF, withhold ROZLYTREK, reassess LVEF and institute appropriate medical management. Reduce dose or permanently discontinue ROZLYTREK based on severity of CHF or worsening LVEF. ( 2.7 , 5.1 ) Central Nervous System (CNS) Effects: CNS adverse reactions including cognitive impairment, mood disorders, dizziness, and sleep disturbances can occur with ROZLYTREK. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS None. None. ( 4 )
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on literature reports in humans with congenital mutations leading to changes in TRK signaling, findings from animal studies, and its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] , ROZLYTREK can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on ROZLYTREK use in pregnant women. Administration of entrectinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in malformations at maternal exposures approximately 2.7 times the human exposure at the 600 mg dose (see Data ) .
Storage
Storage: Store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F); excursions permitted between 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F) [See USP Controlled Room Temperature] . Store ROZLYTREK capsules in the original container and keep the bottle tightly closed in order to protect from moisture.
