OGSIVEO oral tablets contain nirogacestat (as nirogacestat hydrobromide), a gamma (γ) secretase inhibitor. Nirogacestat hydrobromide is chemically known as (S)-2-(((S)-6,8-Difluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)amino)-N-(1-(2-methyl-1-(neopentylamino)propan-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl) pentanamide dihydrobromide. The empirical formula is C27H43Br2F2N5O and the molecular weight is 651.48 g/mol. Nirogacestat hydrobromide is a white to off white powder with an aqueous solubility of 11.4 mg/mL and a pH of 4.4 in water at 25°C. Nirogacestat dihydrobromide is highly soluble at low pH, however the solubility significantly decreases at pH > 6.0. The molecule has pKa’s of 5.77 and 7.13. The structural formula for nirogacestat hydrobromide is:

OGSIVEO (nirogacestat) tablets are immediate release (IR), film-coated tablets intended for oral administration. Each tablet contains 50 mg nirogacestat as 66.525 mg nirogacestat hydrobromide. OGSIVEO tablets are round, biconvex with an approximate diameter of 8 mm. They are film coated, orange in color, and debossed with “50” on one face and plain on the other face. OGSIVEO tablets contain the following inactive ingredients: lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, and sodium starch glycolate type A. The tablets are finished with Opadry® QX orange film coating consisting of the following ingredients: FD&C yellow #6/sunset yellow FCF aluminum lake, glycerol monocaprylocaprate type 1/mono/diglycerides, iron oxide yellow, macrogol (PEG) polyvinyl alcohol graft copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol – partially hydrolyzed, talc, and titanium dioxide.
OGSIVEO is indicated for adult patients with progressing desmoid tumors who require systemic treatment.
The recommended dosage of OGSIVEO is 150 mg administered orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Each 150 mg dose of OGSIVEO consists of three 50 mg tablets or one 150 mg tablet. OGSIVEO may be taken with or without food.
Instruct patients to swallow OGSIVEO tablets whole and not to break, crush, or chew prior to swallowing.
If a patient vomits or misses a dose, instruct the patient to take the next dose at its scheduled time.
The recommended dose modifications for OGSIVEO for selected severe adverse reactions are summarized in Table 1 [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS, ADVERSE REACTIONS]. For other severe adverse reactions, life-threatening adverse reactions, or persistent intolerable Grade 2 adverse events, withhold drug until resolved to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Only restart at a dose of 100 mg twice daily after considering the potential benefit and likelihood of recurrence of the adverse reaction. Permanently discontinue OGSIVEO for recurrence of severe or life-threatening adverse reaction upon rechallenge at the reduced dose.

The following serious adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The safety of OGSIVEO was evaluated in 69 patients enrolled in DeFi with progressing desmoid tumor [see Clinical Studies]. Patients received OGSIVEO 150 mg orally twice daily or placebo orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of exposure to OGSIVEO was 20.6 months (range: 0.3 to 33.6).
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 20% of patients who received OGSIVEO. Serious adverse reactions occurring in ≥ 2% of patients were ovarian toxicity (4%).
Permanent discontinuation of OGSIVEO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 20% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of OGSIVEO in ≥ 2% of patients were diarrhea, ovarian toxicity, increased ALT, and increased AST.
Dosage interruptions of OGSIVEO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 51% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in ≥ 2% of patients included diarrhea, rash, stomatitis, hypophosphatemia, fatigue, folliculitis, nausea, and ovarian toxicity.
Dose reductions of OGSIVEO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 42% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in ≥ 2% of patients included diarrhea, rash, stomatitis, hypophosphatemia, folliculitis, hidradenitis, and ovarian toxicity.
The most common (≥ 15% with a difference between arms of ≥ 5% compared to placebo) adverse reactions that occurred in patients receiving OGSIVEO were diarrhea, ovarian toxicity, rash, nausea, fatigue, stomatitis, headache, abdominal pain, cough, alopecia, upper respiratory tract infection and dyspnea.

Table 4. Effects of Other Drugs on OGSIVEO
| Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors | |
| Clinical Effect | Nirogacestat is a CYP3A substrate. Strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors increase nirogacestat exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may increase the risk of OGSIVEO adverse reactions. |
| Prevention or Management | Avoid concomitant use of OGSIVEO with strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors including grapefruit products, Seville oranges, and starfruit. |
| Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inducers | |
| Clinical Effect | Nirogacestat is a CYP3A substrate. Strong or moderate CYP3A inducers decrease serum nirogacestat exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may reduce the effectiveness of OGSIVEO. |
| Prevention or Management | Avoid concomitant use of OGSIVEO with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. |
| Gastric Acid Reducing Agents | |
| Clinical Effect | Nirogacestat is poorly soluble at pH ≥ 6. Gastric acid reducing agents may decrease serum nirogacestat exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may reduce the effectiveness of OGSIVEO |
| Prevention or Management | Avoid concomitant use with proton pump inhibitors and H2 blockers. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, OGSIVEO can be staggered with antacids (e.g., administer OGSIVEO 2 hours before or 2 hours after antacid use). |
Table 5. Effects of OGSIVEO on Other Drugs
| Certain CYP3ASubstrates | |
| Clinical Effect | Nirogacestat increases exposure of CYP3A substrates [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates. |
| Prevention or Management | Avoid concomitant use with CYP3A substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse reactions. |
| Certain CYP2C19 Substrates | |
| Clinical Effect | Nirogacestat decreases exposure of CYP2C19 substrates [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may decrease efficacy of these substrates. |
| Prevention or Management | Avoid concomitant use with OGSIVEO where decreased concentrations of CYP2C19 substrates may lead to significant decreases in efficacy of the CYP2C19 substrate unless otherwise recommended in the Prescribing Information for the CYP2C19 substrate. |
Included as part of the "PRECAUTIONS" Section
Diarrhea, sometimes severe, can occur in patients treated with OGSIVEO [see ADVERSE REACTIONS]
In DeFi, diarrhea occurred in 84% of patients treated with OGSIVEO, and included Grade 3 events in 16% of patients. Median time to first diarrhea event for patients treated with OGSIVEO was 9 days (range: 2 to 434 days). Monitor patients and manage using antidiarrheal medications. Modify dose as recommended [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
Female reproductive function and fertility may be impaired in patients being treated with OGSIVEO. Impact on fertility may depend on factors including the duration of therapy and the state of gonadal function at the time of treatment. The long-term effects of OGSIVEO on fertility have not been established. Advise patients on the potential risks for ovarian toxicity before initiating treatment with OGSIVEO [see Use In Specific Populations]. Monitor patients for changes in menstrual cycle regularity or the development of symptoms of estrogen deficiency, including hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness.
ALT or AST elevations occurred in 30% and 33% of patients who received OGSIVEO in DeFi, respectively. Grade 3 ALT or AST elevations (> 5 × ULN) occurred in 6% and 2.9% of patients, respectively [see ADVERSE REACTIONS, DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
New non-melanoma skin cancers can occur in patients treated with OGSIVEO. In DeFi, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma occurred in 2.9% and 1.4% of patients, respectively [see ADVERSE REACTIONS
Electrolyte abnormalities can occur in patients treated with OGSIVEO. In DeFi, these included decreased phosphate (65%) and decreased potassium (22%). Phosphate <2 mg/dL occurred in 20% of patients who received OGSIVEO. Grade 3 decreased potassium occurred in 1.4% of patients [see ADVERSE REACTIONS, DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, OGSIVEO can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women. Oral administration of nirogacestat to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal toxicity and death at maternal exposures below the human exposure at the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females and males of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].
Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (PATIENT INFORMATION).
Advise patients that OGSIVEO can cause diarrhea, which may be severe, and to contact their healthcare provider for sustained diarrhea that does not respond to supportive care [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise females of reproductive potential that OGSIVEO can cause ovarian toxicity and impair fertility, and that these effects may continue following discontinuation of OGSIVEO. Advise patients to tell their healthcare provider if they experience symptoms of ovarian toxicity, including hot flashes or menstrual irregularities [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise patients that OGSIVEO can cause ALT or AST elevations, and that their healthcare provider should monitor liver transaminase levels regularly [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise patients that OGSIVEO can cause new non-melanoma skin cancers, that they will be monitored for these, and to contact their healthcare provider for any new or changing lesions on their skin [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise patients that OGSIVEO can cause hypophosphatemia and/or hypokalemia which may require phosphate and/or potassium supplementation. Advise patients that they will be monitored for these and to contact their healthcare provider if they experience muscle pain or weakness [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential harm to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to inform their healthcare provider of a known or suspected pregnancy, and to stop taking OGSIVEO if they become pregnant. Also, advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS, Use In Specific Populations].
Advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].
Advise patients to inform their healthcare provider of all concomitant medications, including prescription medicines, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and herbal products. Inform patients to avoid starfruit, Seville oranges, grapefruit, and juice from any of these fruits when taking OGSIVEO [see DRUG INTERACTIONS].
In a 6-month carcinogenicity study, transgenic rasH2 mice received up to 100 mg/kg/day of oral nirogacestat, resulting in mean exposure levels (AUC) less than those in humans at the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily. No statistically significant neoplastic findings occurred. The carcinogenic potential of nirogacestat in rats has not been assessed.
Nirogacestat was not mutagenic in a bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay and was not clastogenic in an in vitro chromosome aberration assay in human lymphocytes or in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus study.
Nirogacestat resulted in reduced fertility when administered to male and female rats at doses ≥ 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.16 times the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily based on body surface area (BSA), and a lack of fertility when administered to male and female rats at doses ≥ 40 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.3 times the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily based on BSA). Adverse findings in rats included ovarian atrophy, reduced testes weights, and decreased sperm concentration and motility.
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, OGSIVEO can cause fetal harm or loss of pregnancy when administered to a pregnant woman [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Oral administration of nirogacestat to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal toxicity and embryo-fetal death at maternal exposures below the human exposure at the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily [see Data]. There are no available data on the use of OGSIVEO in pregnant women. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.
In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
Animal Data
Daily oral administration of nirogacestat to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in decreased fetal body weights, pre- and post-implantation loss, and fetal subcutis edema at doses ≥ 20 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.85 times the recommended dose of 150 mg twice daily based on area under the curve).
There are no data on the presence of nirogacestat or its metabolites in human milk or the effects of nirogacestat on a breastfed child or milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed children, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose.
OGSIVEO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman (see Pregnancy].
Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating OGSIVEO [see Pregnancy].
Females
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose.
Males
Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with OGSIVEO and for 1 week after the last dose.
Based on findings in animal studies, OGSIVEO can impair female and male fertility. OGSIVEO has been shown to interfere with folliculogenesis and spermatogenesis in nonclinical studies resulting in changes that included ovarian atrophy [see Nonclinical Toxicology].
The safety and effectiveness of OGSIVEO have not been established in pediatric patients. Epiphyseal disorder, manifesting as a widening of the epiphyseal growth plate, has been reported in pediatric patients with open growth plates treated with OGSIVEO.
Of the total number of OGSIVEO-treated patients in the DeFi study, 3 (4%) were 65 years of age and older and none were 75 years of age and older. Clinical studies of OGSIVEO did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently than younger adult patients.
Due to the high level of protein binding, OGSIVEO is not expected to be dialyzable [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].
None.
Nirogacestat is a gamma secretase inhibitor that blocks proteolytic activation of the Notch receptor. When dysregulated, Notch can activate pathways that contribute to tumor growth.
There is an exposure-response relationship between nirogacestat exposure and Grade 3 hypophosphatemia with a higher risk of Grade 3 hypophosphatemia at higher exposure.
At the recommended dosage, a mean increase in the QTc interval > 20 ms was not observed.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of nirogacestat were observed based on age (18 to 80 years), sex, race (Asian, Black or African American, and White), or mild or moderate renal impairment (eGFR ≥41 mL/min/1.73m2).
The mean AUC increased by up to 16% and the mean Cmax decreased by up to 39% in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment identified by Child-Pugh Class B or NCI-ODWG Group C criteria compared to that of subjects with normal hepatic function.
Insufficient data are available to characterize nirogacestat PK in patients with severe hepatic impairment.
Strong CYP3A inhibitors
Nirogacestat Cmax increased by 2.5-fold and AUC by 8.2-fold following coadministration of a single dose of OGSIVEO (100 mg) with itraconazole (a strong CYP3A inhibitor). Nirogacestat AUC is predicted to increase by 6.33-, 5.19-, and 3.46-fold following coadministration of multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID) with itraconazole, ketoconazole and clarithromycin (strong CYP3A inhibitors), respectively.
Moderate CYP3A inhibitors
Nirogacestat AUC is predicted to increase by 2.73- and 3.18-fold following coadministration of multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID) with erythromycin (moderate CYP3A inhibitor) and fluconazole (moderate CYP3A inhibitor), respectively.
Strong CYP3A inducers
Nirogacestat AUC is predicted to decrease by 85% following coadministration of multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID) with rifampin (strong CYP3A inducer).
Moderate CYP3A inducers
Nirogacestat AUC is predicted to decrease by 67% following coadministration of multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID) with efavirenz (moderate CYP3A inducer).
CYP3A substrates
Midazolam (CYP3A substrate) Cmax is predicted to increase by 1.77-fold and AUC by 2.07-fold following concomitant use with multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID).
CYP2C19 substrates
Concomitant use of multiple doses of OGSIVEO (150 mg BID) with a drug that is a sensitive substrate of CYP2C19 decreases the plasma concentrations of these substrates.
P-gp substrates
Exposure to dabigatran (P-gp substrate) Cmax and AUC were not affected by concomitant use with nirogacestat.
Drugs that increase gastric pH
Concomitant administration of proton pump inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole), histamine type 2 (H2)-receptor antagonists (e.g., famotidine), or antacids (e.g., calcium) is expected to reduce concentrations of nirogacestat.
Other Drugs
No clinically significant differences in nirogacestat pharmacokinetics were predicted when used concomitantly with cimetidine (weak CYP3A inhibitor).
No clinically significant differences were predicted in the pharmacokinetics of the following drugs when used concomitantly with nirogacestat: rosiglitazone (CYP2C8 substrate) or S-warfarin (CYP2C9 substrate).
Nirogacestat does not inhibit CYP 1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, and 2D6.
Nirogacestat is an inducer of CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19, but does not induce CYP 1A2.
Transporter systems
Nirogacestat is a P-gp substrate, but not a substrate of BCRP, OATP1B1, and OATP1B3.
Nirogacestat is a P-gp inhibitor, but not an inhibitor of BCRP, MATE1, MATE2-K, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT2 and OAT3.
The efficacy of OGSIVEO was evaluated in DeFi (NCT03785964), an international, multicenter, randomized (1:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 142 adult patients with progressing desmoid tumors not amenable to surgery. Patients were eligible if the desmoid tumor had progressed within 12 months of screening. Patients with progressing desmoid tumor that would result in immediate risk to the patient were not eligible.
Patients were randomized to receive 150 mg OGSIVEO or placebo orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients were stratified by primary tumor(s) location (intra-abdominal versus extra-abdominal). Tumor imaging occurred every 3 months. Crossover was permitted at the time of radiographic progression. The major efficacy outcome was progression-free survival (PFS) based on RECIST v1.1 as assessed by blinded independent central review or on clinical progression by the investigator (and confirmed by independent review). Clinical progression required worsening of symptoms resulting in a global deterioration of health status causing the permanent discontinuation from trial treatment and the initiation of emergent treatment (e.g., radiotherapy, surgery, or systemic therapy including chemotherapy or tyrosine kinase inhibitors) for desmoid tumors. Objective response rate (ORR) was an additional efficacy outcome measure. Worst pain (item 3) was assessed daily using Brief Pain Inventory- Short Form (BPI-SF), an 11-point numerical rating scale ranging from 0 (“no pain”) to 10 (“pain as bad as you can imagine”) and averaged over 7 days prior to each visit.
A total of 142 patients were randomized. The median age was 34 years (range: 18 to 76); 65% were female; race was 83% White, 6% Black, 3% Asian, and other or not reported in 8%; and 73% had an ECOG performance status (PS) of 0, 27% had an ECOG PS of 1, and 0.7% had an ECOG PS of 2. Twenty-three percent of patients had intra-abdominal disease or both intraand extra-abdominal disease, and 77% had only extra-abdominal disease. Forty-one percent of patients had multifocal disease and 59% had single focal disease. Of 105 patients with known tumor mutation status, 81% had a CTNNB1 mutation and 21% had an APC mutation. Seventeen percent of patients had a family history of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Twenty-three percent of patients received no prior therapy, and 44% received ≥3 prior lines of therapy. Prior therapy included surgery (53%), radiotherapy (23%), and systemic therapy (61%). Thirty-three percent of patients were previously treated with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and 36% were previously treated with chemotherapy. Fifty percent had a BPI-SF item 3 (worst pain) score of ≥2.
