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 reflect exposure to Zydelig at a dosage of 150 mg twice daily in 110 patients administered in combination with rituximab in Study 312-0116, and in combination with other drugs in 380 patients.
Among 490 patients who received Zydelig, 74% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 50% were exposed for one year or longer.
In this pooled safety population, the most common (> 30%) adverse reactions were diarrhea, pneumonia, pyrexia, fatigue, rash, cough, and nausea.
Common laboratory abnormalities were neutropenia, ALT elevations and AST elevations.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Severe Cutaneous Reactions : Monitor patients for the development of severe cutaneous reactions.
Permanently discontinue Zydelig if confirmed.
( 2.2 , 5.6 ) Hypersensitivity Reactions : Permanently discontinue Zydelig and institute appropriate supportive measures.
( 2.2 , 5.7 ) Neutropenia : Monitor blood counts.
Interrupt Zydelig until resolution and resume at reduced dose.
Like all medications, Zydelig can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
