ODOMZO- sonidegib phosphate capsule
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc.

WARNING: EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE

ODOMZO (sonidegib) is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC) that has recurred following surgery or radiation therapy, or those who are not candidates for surgery or radiation therapy.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

2.1 Important Safety Information

Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating ODOMZO [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

2.2 Recommended Dosage

The recommended dosage of ODOMZO is 200 mg taken orally once daily on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal, administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

Obtain serum creatine kinase (CK) levels and renal function tests prior to initiating ODOMZO in all patients [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

If a dose of ODOMZO is missed, resume dosing with the next scheduled dose.

2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions

Interrupt ODOMZO for

  • Severe or intolerable musculoskeletal adverse reactions.
  • First occurrence of serum CK elevation between 2.5 and 10 times upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • Recurrent serum CK elevation between 2.5 and 5 times ULN.

Resume ODOMZO at 200 mg daily upon resolution of clinical signs and symptoms.

Permanently discontinue ODOMZO for

  • Serum CK elevation greater than 2.5 times ULN with worsening renal function.
  • Serum CK elevation greater than 10 times ULN.
  • Recurrent serum CK elevation greater than 5 times ULN.
  • Recurrent severe or intolerable musculoskeletal adverse reactions.

3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

Capsules: 200 mg, opaque pink colored with ‘SONIDEGIB 200MG’ printed on the body and ‘NVR’ printed on the cap in black ink (equivalent to 281 mg of diphosphate salt of sonidegib).

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

None.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

5.1 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

ODOMZO can cause embryo-fetal death or severe birth defects when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, sonidegib was embryotoxic, fetotoxic, and teratogenic at maternal exposures below the recommended human dose of 200 mg [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

Females of Reproductive Potential

Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating ODOMZO treatment. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females to use effective contraception during treatment with ODOMZO and for at least 20 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.3)].

Males

Advise male patients with female partners to use condoms, even after a vasectomy, during treatment with ODOMZO and for at least 8 months after the last dose to avoid potential drug exposure in pregnant females or females of reproductive potential [see Use in Specific Populations (8.3)].

Blood Donation

Advise patients not to donate blood or blood products while taking ODOMZO and for at least 20 months after the last dose of ODOMZO, because their blood or blood products might be given to a female of reproductive potential.

5.2 Musculoskeletal Adverse Reactions

Musculoskeletal adverse reactions, which may be accompanied by serum creatine kinase (CK) elevations, occur with ODOMZO and other drugs which inhibit the hedgehog (Hh) pathway.

In a pooled safety analysis of 12 clinical studies involving 571 patients with various advanced cancers treated with ODOMZO at doses ranging from 100 mg to 3000 mg, rhabdomyolysis (defined as serum CK increase of more than ten times the baseline value with a concurrent 1.5-fold or greater increase in serum creatinine above baseline value) occurred in one patient (0.2%) treated with ODOMZO 800 mg.

In the BOLT study, musculoskeletal adverse reactions occurred in 68% (54/79) of patients treated with ODOMZO 200 mg daily with 9% (7/79) reported as Grade 3 or 4. The most frequent manifestations of musculoskeletal adverse reactions reported as an adverse event were muscle spasms (54%), musculoskeletal pain (32%), and myalgia (19%). Increased serum CK laboratory values occurred in 61% (48/79) of patients with 8% (6/79) of patients having Grade 3 or 4 serum CK elevations. Musculoskeletal pain and myalgia usually preceded serum CK elevation. Among patients with Grade 2 or higher CK elevations, the median time to onset was 12.9 weeks (range: 2 to 39 weeks) and the median time to resolution (to ≤ Grade 1) was 12 days (95% CI: 8 to 14 days). ODOMZO was temporarily interrupted in 8% of patients or permanently discontinued in 8% of patients for musculoskeletal adverse reactions. The incidence of musculoskeletal adverse reactions requiring medical intervention (magnesium supplementation, muscle relaxants, and analgesics or narcotics) was 29%, including four patients (5%) who received intravenous hydration or were hospitalized.

Obtain baseline serum CK and creatinine levels prior to initiating ODOMZO, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated (e.g., if muscle symptoms are reported). Obtain serum creatinine and CK levels at least weekly in patients with musculoskeletal adverse reactions with concurrent serum CK elevation greater than 2.5 times ULN until resolution of clinical signs and symptoms. Depending on the severity of symptoms, temporary dose interruption or discontinuation may be required for musculoskeletal adverse reactions or serum CK elevation [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. Advise patients starting therapy with ODOMZO of the risk of muscle-related adverse reactions. Advise patients to report promptly any new unexplained muscle pain, tenderness or weakness occurring during treatment or that persists after discontinuing ODOMZO.

5.3 Premature Fusion of the Epiphyses

Premature fusion of the epiphyses has been reported in pediatric patients exposed to ODOMZO and other Hh pathway inhibitors. Despite discontinuation of drug, cases of progressive of epiphyseal fusion have been reported in pediatric patients receiving other Hh pathway inhibitors. ODOMZO is not indicated for use in pediatric patients.
