Warnings

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hepatotoxicity: Monitor liver function tests prior to initiating, every 2 weeks during the first 2 months of treatment, then monthly thereafter as clinically indicated, with more frequent testing in patients who develop transaminase elevations. Based on severity and resolution, withhold and then resume at reduced dose, or permanently discontinue. ( 2.4 , 5.1 ) Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis: Monitor patients for new or worsening pulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis. Immediately withhold in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis. Based on severity and resolution, resume at the same or reduced dose, or permanently discontinue. ( 2.4 , 5.2 ) QTc Interval Prolongation: Monitor ECG and electrolytes prior to initiating and periodically during treatment. Based on severity and resolution, withhold and then resume at same or reduced dose, or permanently discontinue. ( 2.4 , 5.3 ) Hyperuricemia: Monitor serum uric acid levels prior to initiating and periodically during treatment. Initiate treatment with urate-lowering medications as clinically indicated. Withhold and resume at same or reduced dose or permanently discontinue based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.4 ) Myalgia with Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) Elevation: Monitor serum CPK levels during treatment in patients reporting unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness. Based on severity, withhold and resume at same or reduced dose upon improvement. ( 2.4 , 5.5 ) Skeletal Fractures: Promptly evaluate patients with signs or symptoms (e.g., pain, changes in mobility, deformity) of fractures. ( 5.6 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise patients of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.7 ) 5.1 Hepatotoxicity IBTROZI can cause hepatotoxicity, including drug-induced liver injury and fatal adverse reactions. In the pooled safety population [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )], based on laboratory values, 88% of patients treated with IBTROZI experienced increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST), including 10% Grade 3 or 4. Increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) occurred in 85% of patients treated with IBTROZI, including 13% Grade 3 or 4. The median time to first onset of AST or ALT elevation was 15 days (range: 3 days to 20.8 months). Increased AST or ALT each led to dose interruption in 7% of patients. Increased AST and ALT leading to dose reduction occurred in 5% and 9% of patients, respectively. Increased AST and ALT each led to permanent discontinuation of IBTROZI in 0.3% of patients. Other liver-related adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation of IBTROZI were hepatotoxicity (0.6% of patients) and increased bilirubin (0.3% of patients). Concurrent elevations in AST or ALT ≥3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) and total bilirubin ≥2 times the ULN, with normal alkaline phosphatase, occurred in 2 (0.6%) patients treated with IBTROZI. Fatal liver events occurred in 2 (0.6%) patients. Monitor liver function tests (AST, ALT, and bilirubin) prior to administration of IBTROZI, every 2 weeks during the first 2 months of treatment, and then monthly thereafter as clinically indicated with more frequent testing in patients who develop transaminase elevations. Withhold, then resume at reduced dose upon improvement, or permanently discontinue IBTROZI based on severity [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] . 5.2 Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis IBTROZI can cause severe, life-threatening, or fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis. In the pooled safety population [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )], interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis occurred in 2.3% of patients treated with IBTROZI, including Grade 3 or 4 in 1.1% of patients. The median time to first onset of ILD/pneumonitis was 3.8 months (range: 12 days to 11.8 months). ILD/pneumonitis led to dose interruption of IBTROZI in 1.1% of patients. ILD/pneumonitis required dose reduction in 0.6% of patients and permanent …

Drug interactions

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong and Moderate CYP3A inhibitors : Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 ) Strong and Moderate CYP3A inducers: Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 ) Gastric Acid Reducing Agents: Avoid concomitant use with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and H2 receptor antagonists. If an acid-reducing agent cannot be avoided, administer IBTROZI 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking a locally acting antacid. ( 7.1 ) Drugs That Prolong the QTc Interval: Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on IBTROZI Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors Avoid concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors. Taletrectinib is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of IBTROZI with a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor increases taletrectinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may increase the risk of IBTROZI adverse reactions. Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inducers Avoid concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. Concomitant use of IBTROZI with a strong or moderate CYP3A inducer decreases taletrectinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may reduce the effectiveness of IBTROZI. Gastric Acid Reducing Agents Avoid concomitant use with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) and H2 receptor antagonists. Administer locally acting antacids at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking IBTROZI [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. Concomitant use of a proton pump inhibitor decreases taletrectinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )], which may reduce the effectiveness of IBTROZI. 7.2. Drugs That Prolong the QTc Interval Avoid concomitant use of IBTROZI with other drug(s) with a known potential to prolong the QTc interval, such as antiarrhythmic drugs. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, adjust the frequency of monitoring as recommended [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )]. Withhold IBTROZI if the QTc interval is >500 msec or the change from baseline is >60 msec [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )]. IBTROZI causes QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . Concomitant use of IBTROZI with other drugs known to prolong the QTc interval may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation.

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 )] , IBTROZI can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Limited data from case reports with IBTROZI used in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of taletrectinib to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal mortalities and structural abnormalities at exposures that were below or equal to the human exposure based on AUC at the recommended dose ( see Data ) . 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. Data Human Data Published reports of individuals with congenital mutations in TRK pathway proteins suggest that decreases in TRK-mediated signaling are correlated with obesity, developmental delays, cognitive impairment, insensitivity to pain, and anhidrosis. Animal Data In an embryo-fetal development study, taletrectinib was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis from gestation day 6 to 17 at doses of 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg/day. Taletrectinib caused fetal abnormalities including abnormal ossification of the pelvis at 100 mg/kg/day (1.3 times the human exposure based on AUC at the recommended dose). In an embryo-fetal development study, taletrectinib was administered orally to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis from gestation day 6 to 19 at doses of 15, 30, and 90 mg/kg/day. Maternal lethality and increased total pregnancy loss were observed at doses ≥15 mg/kg/day (≥0.04 times the human exposure based on AUC at the recommended dose). Fetal malformations, including undeveloped or no development of eyes, nose, and mouth, ventricular malformations, thoracic vascular malformations, and skull malformations were observed at 30 mg/kg/day (0.1 times the human exposure based on AUC at the recommended dose).

( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Nuvation Bio Inc. at 1-844-688-4550 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience 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 pooled safety population described in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS section and below reflects exposure to IBTROZI as a single agent at 600 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity in 352 patients with ROS1 -positive NSCLC (N=337) and other solid tumors (N=15). Among the 352 patients who received IBTROZI, 68% were exposed for at least 6 months, and 47% were exposed for greater than 1 year. In this pooled safety population, the most common (≥20%) adverse reactions were diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, rash, constipation, and fatigue. The most common (≥2%) Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities were increased ALT, increased AST, decreased neutrophils, increased creatine phosphokinase, decreased lymphocytes, increased magnesium, decreased hemoglobin, and increased triglycerides. Locally Advanced or Metastatic ROS1-Positive NSCLC The safety of IBTROZI was evaluated in the TRUST-I and TRUST-II studies [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )]. Key eligibility criteria were histologically confirmed, locally advanced or metastatic, ROS1 -positive NSCLC, ECOG performance status ≤1, and measurable disease per RECIST v1.1. Patients received IBTROZI as a single agent at 600 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Among patients who received IBTROZI, 68% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 47% were exposed for greater than one year. The median age of patients who received IBTROZI was 56 years (range: 26 to 83); 56% female; 76% Asian, 15% White, 0.6% Black or African American, 8% unknown or other races; and 1.8% were of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 31% of patients who received IBTROZI. Serious adverse reactions in ≥2% of patients included pneumonia (7%), pleural effusion (4.7%), and hepatotoxicity (2.4%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 18 (5%) patients who received IBTROZI, including pneumonia (2.4%), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (0.6%), hepatotoxicity (0.6%), cardiac arrest (0.6%), cardiac failure (0.3%), cardiopulmonary failure (0.3%), respiratory failure (0.3%), and death not otherwise specified (0.3%). Permanent discontinuation of IBTROZI was required in 7% of patients due to adverse reactions. Adverse reactions resulting in permanent discontinuation of IBTROZI in ≥2 patients were pneumonia, ILD, and hepatotoxicity. Dosage interruptions of IBTROZI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 41% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in ≥5% of patients included increased AST and increased ALT. Dose reductions of IBTROZI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 29% of patients. Adverse reactions that required dosage reductions in ≥5% of patients included increased…
