6.1 Clinical Trial 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.
Unless noted, data in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and below reflects exposure to VITRAKVI in 444 patients, including 62% patients exposed for greater than 6 months, 44% patients exposed for greater than 1 year, and 30% patients exposed for greater than 2 years.
VITRAKVI was studied in one adult dose-finding trial [LOXO-TRK-14001 (n = 75)], one pediatric dose-finding trial [SCOUT (n = 154)], and one single arm trial [NAVIGATE (n = 215)].
All patients had an unresectable or metastatic solid tumor and no satisfactory alternative treatment options or disease progression following treatment.
Across these 444 patients, the median age was 44 years (range: 18 days to 90 years);
35% were younger than 18 years;
53% were female;
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Central Nervous System (CNS) Effects: Advise patients and caretakers of the risk of CNS adverse reactions including dizziness, cognitive impairment, mood disorders, and sleep disturbances.
Advise patients not to drive or operate hazardous machinery if experiencing neurotoxicity.
Withhold and modify dosage, or permanently discontinue VITRAKVI based on severity.
( 2.3 , 5.1 ) Skeletal Fractures: Promptly evaluate patients with signs or symptoms of fractures.
( 5.2 ) Hepatotoxicity: Obtain liver function tests (ALT, AST, ALP and bilirubin) before initiation of VITRAKVI and every 2 weeks during the first 2 months of treatment, then monthly thereafter or as clinically indicated.
Like all medications, Vitrakvi 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.
