GAVRETO is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as detected by an FDA approved test.
This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s).

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s).
1.3 RET Fusion-Positive Thyroid Cancer
GAVRETO is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with advanced or metastatic RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer who require systemic therapy and who are radioactive iodine-refractory (if radioactive iodine is appropriate).
This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response [see Clinical Studies (14.3)]. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s).
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
2.1 Patient Selection
Select patients for treatment with GAVRETO based on the presence of a RET gene fusion (NSCLC or thyroid cancer) or RET gene mutation (MTC) [see Clinical Studies (14)].
Information on FDA-approved tests for RET gene fusion (NSCLC) is available at http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.
An FDA-approved test for the detection of RET gene fusion (thyroid cancer) and RET gene mutations is not currently available.
2.2 Recommended Dosage
The recommended dosage of GAVRETO is 400 mg orally once daily on an empty stomach (no food intake for at least 2 hours before and at least 1 hour after taking GAVRETO) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Continue treatment until disease progression or until unacceptable toxicity.
If a dose of GAVRETO is missed, it can be taken as soon as possible on the same day. Resume the regular daily dose schedule for GAVRETO the next day.
Do not take an additional dose if vomiting occurs after GAVRETO but continue with the next dose as scheduled.

Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)] | Grade 3 or 4 | Withhold GAVRETO and monitor AST/ALT once weekly until resolution to Grade 1 or baseline. |
Resume at reduced dose (Table 1). | ||
If hepatotoxicity recurs at Grade 3 or higher, discontinue GAVRETO. | ||
Hemorrhagic Events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)] | Grade 3 or 4 | Withhold GAVRETO until recovery to baseline or Grade 0 or 1. |
Discontinue GAVRETO for severe or life-threatening hemorrhagic events. | ||
Other Adverse Reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] | Grade 3 or 4 | Withhold GAVRETO until improvement to ≤ Grade 2. Resume at reduced dose (Table 1). |
Permanently discontinue for recurrent Grade 4 adverse reactions. |
2.4 Dose Modification for Use with Combined P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and Strong CYP3A Inhibitors
Avoid coadministration of GAVRETO with known combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inhibitors. If coadministration with a combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inhibitor cannot be avoided, reduce the current dose of GAVRETO as recommended in Table 3. After the inhibitor has been discontinued for 3 to 5 elimination half-lives, resume GAVRETO at the dose taken prior to initiating the combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inhibitor [see Drug Interactions (7.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
