TEPMETKO (tepotinib hydrochloride)

The pharmacokinetics of tepotinib were evaluated in patients with cancer administered 450 mg once daily unless otherwise specified. Tepotinib exposure (AUC 0-12h and C max ) increases dose-proportionally over the dose range of 27 mg (0.06 times the recommended daily dosage) to 450 mg. At the recommended dosage, the geometric mean (coefficient of variation [CV] %) steady state C max was 1,291 ng/mL (48.1%) and the AUC 0-24h was 27,438 ng∙h/mL (51.7%). The oral clearance of tepotinib did not chang...

The efficacy of TEPMETKO was evaluated in a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, non-randomized, multicohort study (VISION, NCT02864992). Eligible patients were required to have advanced or metastatic NSCLC harboring MET ex14 skipping alterations, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) wild-type and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) negative status, at least one measurable lesion as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 to 1. Patients with symptomatic CNS metastases, clinically signifi...

The following adverse reactions are described in greater detail elsewhere in the labeling: Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Pancreatic Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were edema, nausea, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, diarrhea, dyspnea, decreased appetite, and rash. The most common Grade 3 to 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥ 2%) were decreased lymphocy...

None. None. ( 4 )

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis : Immediately withhold TEPMETKO in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis. Permanently discontinue TEPMETKO in patients diagnosed with ILD/pneumonitis of any severity. ( 2.4 , 5.1 ) Hepatotoxicity : Monitor liver function tests. Withhold, dose reduce, or permanently discontinue TEPMETKO based on severity. ( 5.2 ) Pancreatic Toxicity : Monitor amylase and lipase. Withhold, dose reduce, or permanently discontinue TEPMETKO based on severity. ( 5.3 ) Embr...

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Certain P-gp substrates : Avoid coadministration of TEPMETKO with P-gp substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious or life-threatening toxicities. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effects of TEPMETKO on Other Drugs Certain P-gp Substrates Tepotinib is a P-gp inhibitor. Concomitant use of TEPMETKO increases the concentration of P-gp substrates [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)...
