VONJO (pacritinib citrate)

Pacritinib steady-state mean (CV%) Cmax is 8.4 mg/L (32.4%) and AUC0-12 is 95.6 mg×h/L (33.1%) following administration of VONJO 200 mg twice daily in patients with MF. Pharmacokinetics of pacritinib increases in a less than dose-proportional manner. VONJO 200 mg twice daily accumulates 386% and reaches steady-state within a week.

AbsorptionPacritinib achieves C max within approximately 4 to 5 hours post-dose. Effect of Food There was no significant effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of pac...

PERSIST-2 The efficacy of VONJO in the treatment of patients with intermediate or high-risk primary or secondary (post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia) MF was established in the PERSIST-2 trial. PERSIST-2 enrolled patients with intermediate or high-risk primary or secondary (post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia) MF with splenomegaly and a platelet count ≤100 × 10 9 /L. Both JAK2 naïve patients and patients with prior JAK2 inhibitor therapy were included. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive VONJO 400 mg once daily, VONJO 200 mg twice daily, or best ...

VONJO is contraindicated in patients concomitantly using strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers as these medications can significantly alter exposure to pacritinib, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions or impair efficacy [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.2 , 5.3 , 5.4 ), Drug Interactions ( 7.1 ), and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or ...

Hemorrhage: Avoid use in patients with active bleeding and hold VONJO prior to any planned surgical procedures. May require dose interruption, dose reduction or permanent discontinuation depending on severity ( 5.1 ). Diarrhea: Manage significant diarrhea with anti-diarrheals, dose reduction, or dose interruption ( 5.2 ). Thrombocytopenia: Manage by dose reduction or interruption ( 5.3 ). Prolonged QT Interval: Avoid use in patients with baseline QTc >480 msec. Interrupt and reduce VONJO dosage ...

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Co-administration of VONJO with moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors can increase the exposure to pacritinib. Monitor for increased adverse reactions of VONJO when administered with moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors ( 7.1 ). VONJO is an inhibitor of P-gp, BCRP, and CYP1A2 and an inducer of CYP3A4 and CYP2C19. Monitor patients concomitantly receiving substrates of these transporters and enzymes,...
