Warnings for Zegfrovy
Included as part of the PRECAUTIONS section.
Precautions for Zegfrovy
Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis
ZEGFROVY can cause severe and life-threatening interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis.
In the safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)], ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 1.7% of patients. The median time to first onset for ILD/pneumonitis was 61 days (range: 35 to 86 days). ZEGFROVY was discontinued due to ILD/pneumonitis in 0.8% of patients.
Monitor patients for new or worsening pulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis (e.g., dyspnea, cough, and fever). Immediately withhold ZEGFROVY in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue ZEGFROVY if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions
ZEGFROVY can cause severe gastrointestinal adverse reactions including diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.
In the safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)], serious gastrointestinal adverse reactions occurred in 1.7% of patients, including 0.8% Grade 3 nausea. Diarrhea occurred in 73% of patients who received ZEGFROVY, including 2.5% Grade 3. Diarrhea leading to dosage interruption or dose reduction occurred in 5% of patients and required permanent discontinuation of ZEGFROVY in 0.8% of patients. Nausea and vomiting occurred in 43% of patients, including 3.3% Grade 3 events. Nausea and vomiting leading to dosage interruption or dose reduction occurred in 7% of patients and permanent discontinuation of ZEGFROVY in 0.8% of patients.
Administer ZEGFROVY with food to reduce gastrointestinal adverse reactions. Monitor patients for gastrointestinal toxicity, and provide supportive care, including anti-diarrheals, anti-emetics, or fluid replacement, as indicated. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue ZEGFROVY based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
Dermatologic Adverse Reactions
ZEGFROVY can cause severe rash including acneiform dermatitis and pruritus.
Based on the safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)], dermatologic adverse reactions occurred in 68% of patients including 9% acneiform dermatitis. Grade 3 dermatologic adverse reactions were 7% rash, 0.8% acneiform dermatitis, and 0.8% pruritus.
Instruct patients to use alcohol-free (e.g., isopropanol-free, ethanol-free) emollient cream during treatment with ZEGFROVY and to avoid the use of irritating skin products (e.g., products containing retinol or retinoic acid, benzoyl peroxides).
Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue ZEGFROVY based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
Ocular Toxicity
ZEGFROVY can cause ocular toxicity including keratitis, dry eye symptoms, blurred vision, and visual impairment.
Based on the safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)], ocular toxicity occurred in 13% of patients who received ZEGFROVY, including keratitis (0.8%).
Promptly refer patients with new or worsening eye symptoms to an ophthalmologist. Advise discontinuation of contact lenses until ocular symptoms are evaluated. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue ZEGFROVY based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, ZEGFROVY can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.
In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of sunvozertinib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis resulted in structural abnormalities at concentrations below the human exposure at the recommended dose based on area under the curve (AUC) [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].
Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective non-hormonal contraception during treatment with ZEGFROVY and for 2 weeks after the last dose, since ZEGFROVY can render some hormonal contraceptives ineffective [see Drug Interactions (7.2)]. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with ZEGFROVY and for 2 weeks after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].
Nonclinical Toxicology
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with sunvozertinib.
Mutagenesis
Sunvozertinib was not genotoxic in the bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay, an in vitro chromosome aberration assay, or an in vivo micronucleus assay in rats.
Impairment of Fertility
Fertility studies have not been conducted with sunvozertinib. In repeat-dose toxicology studies of up to 4-weeks duration in dogs, oral administration of sunvozertinib caused vaginal epithelial atrophy and degeneration of the seminiferous tubule in the testes at doses as low as 8 mg/kg/day (≥0.2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose based on AUC). The reversibility of the findings in females was not assessed. The findings in males were reversible.
