6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are also described elsewhere in the labeling: Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1) ] Cardiac Failure [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.2) ] Cardiac Ischemia and Arterial Thromboembolic Events [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.3) ] Venous Thromboembolic Events [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.4) ] Hemorrhagic Events [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.5) ] Proteinuria [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.6) ] Gastrointestinal Perforation and Fistula Formation [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.7) ] Thyroid Dysfunction [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.8) ] Risk of Impaired Wound Healing [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.9) ] Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS) [see WARNINGS...
Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inducers. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on FOTIVDA Strong CYP3A Inducers Concomitant use of FOTIVDA with a strong CYP3A inducer decreases tivozanib exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.3) ], which may reduce FOTIVDA anti-tumor activity. Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inducers with FOTIVDA.
Warnings
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis: Control blood pressure prior to initiating FOTIVDA. Monitor for hypertension and treat as needed. For persistent hypertension despite use of anti-hypertensive medications, reduce the FOTIVDA dose. ( 5.1 ) Cardiac Failure: Monitor for signs or symptoms of cardiac failure throughout treatment with FOTIVDA. ( 5.2 ) Cardiac Ischemia and Arterial Thromboembolic Events: Closely monitor patients who are at increased risk for these events. Permanently discontinue FOTIVDA for severe arterial thromboembolic events, such as myocardial infarction and stroke. ( 5.3 ) Venous Thromboembolic Events: Closely monitor patients who are at increased risk for these events. Permanently discontinue FOTIVDA for severe venous thromboembolic events. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS None. None. ( 4 )
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on findings in animal studies and its mechanism of action, FOTIVDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.1) ] . There are no available data on FOTIVDA use in pregnant woman to inform the drug-associated risk. In embryo-fetal developmental studies, oral administration of tivozanib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis caused maternal toxicity, fetal malformations and embryo- fetal death at doses below the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m 2 basis [see DATA ] .
Storage
Storage and Handling 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] . Keep out of reach of children.
