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. ( 5.4 ) Hemorrhagic Events: Closely monitor patients who are at risk for or who have a history of bleeding. ( 5.5 ) Proteinuria: Monitor throughout treatment with FOTIVDA. For moderate to severe proteinuria, reduce the dose or temporarily interrupt treatment with FOTIVDA. ( 5.6 ) Perforations and Fistulas: Monitor for symptoms. Discontinue FOTIVDA for severe or life-threatening gastrointestinal perforation. ( 5.7 ) Thyroid Dysfunction: Monitor before initiation and throughout treatment with FOTIVDA. ( 5.8 ) Risk of Impaired Wound Healing: Withhold FOTIVDA for at least 24 days before elective surgery. Do not administer for at least 2 weeks following major surgery and adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of FOTIVDA after resolution of wound healing complications has not been established. ( 5.9 ) Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS): Discontinue FOTIVDA if signs or symptoms of RPLS occur. ( 5.10 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise patients of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.11 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) Allergic Reactions to Tartrazine: The 0.89 mg capsule of FOTIVDA contains FD&C Yellow No.5 (tartrazine) which may cause allergic-type reactions (including bronchial asthma) in certain susceptible patients. ( 5.12 ) 5.1 Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis FOTIVDA can cause severe hypertension and hypertensive crisis. Hypertension occurred in 45% of patients treated with FOTIVDA, with 22% of the events ≥ Grade 3. Median time to onset of hypertension was 2 weeks (range: 0 – 192 weeks). Hypertensive crisis occurred in 0.8% of patients . One patient (0.1%) died due to hypertensive emergency after FOTIVDA overdose [see OVERDOSAGE (10) ] . FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients with systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 100 mmHg. Control blood pressure prior to treatment with FOTIVDA. Monitor blood pressure after 2 weeks and at least monthly thereafter during treatment with FOTIVDA. Treat patients with anti- hypertensive therapy when hypertension occurs during treatment with FOTIVDA. Withhold FOTIVDA for severe hypertension despite optimal anti-hypertensive therapy. For persistent hypertension despite use of anti-hypertensive medications, reduce the FOTIVDA dose [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2) ] . Discontinue FOTIVDA if hypertension is severe and persistent despite anti-hypertensive therapy and dose reduction of FOTIVDA, or in patients who experience hypertensive crisis. If FOTIVDA is interrupted, monitor patients receiving anti-hypertensive medications for hypotension. 5.2 Cardiac Failure FOTIVDA can cause serious, sometimes fatal, cardiac failure. Cardiac failure in FOTIVDA- treated patients occurred in 1.6%, with 1% of events ≥ Grade 3, and 0.6% events were fatal. FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients with symptomatic cardiac failure within the preceding 6 months before FOTIVDA treatment initiation. Periodically monitor patients for symptoms of cardiac failure throughout treatment with FOTIVDA. Management of cardiac failure events may require interruption, dose reduction, or permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA therapy [see DOSAGE AND ADMINI…

Drug 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.

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 ] . Advise pregnant woman of the potential risk to a fetus. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. 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. Data Animal Data In an embryo-fetal developmental study in pregnant rats, daily oral administration of tivozanib at doses ≥ 0.03 mg/kg/day (0.2 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m 2 basis) during the period of organogenesis resulted in maternal toxicity, increases in early and late resorptions, and an increase in fetal external malformations (body edema, short/kinked tail), and skeletal developmental delays. In an embryo-fetal developmental study in pregnant rabbits, daily oral administration of tivozanib at 1 mg/kg/day (14.5 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m 2 basis) during the period of organogenesis resulted in fetal malformations including ventricular septal defects and major vessel anomalies. No maternal toxicity was reported at doses up to 1 mg/kg/day.

The pooled safety population described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflects exposure to FOTIVDA administered at 1.34 mg orally once daily with or without food for 21 days on treatment followed by 7 days off treatment for a 28-day cycle in 1008 patients with advanced RCC in TIVO-3 and five other monotherapy studies. Among 1008 patients who received FOTIVDA, 52% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 34% were exposed for greater than one year. Relapsed or Refractory Advanced RCC Following Two or More Prior Systemic Therapies The safety of FOTIVDA was evaluated in TIVO-3, a randomized, open-label trial in 350 patients with relapsed or refractory advanced RCC who received 2 or 3 prior systemic treatments [see CLINICAL STUDIES (14) ] . Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive FOTIVDA 1.34 mg orally once daily for 21 days on treatment followed by 7 days off treatment for a 28-day cycle, or to receive sorafenib 400 mg orally twice a day continuously until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Among patients who received FOTIVDA, 53% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 31% were exposed for greater than one year. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 45% of patients who received FOTIVDA. Serious adverse reactions in > 2% of patients included bleeding (3.5%), venous thromboembolism (3.5%), arterial thromboembolism (2.9%), acute kidney injury (2.3%), and hepatobiliary disorders (2.3%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 8% of patients who received FOTIVDA, including pneumonia (1.7%), hepatobiliary disorders (1.2%), respiratory failure (1.2%), myocardial infarction (0.6%), cerebrovascular accident (0.6%), and subdural hematoma (0.6%). Permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 21% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA in > 2 patients included hepatobiliary disorders, fatigue, and pneumonia. Dosage interruptions of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 48% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in > 5% of patients included fatigue, hypertension, decreased appetite, and nausea. Dose reductions of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 24% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in > 3% of patients included fatigue, diarrhea, and decreased appetite. The most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions were fatigue, hypertension, diarrhea, decreased ap…
