Repotrectinib
/api/v1/drug/repotrectinibMechanism of action
Sourced from openFDARepotrectinib is an inhibitor of proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase ROS1 (ROS1) and of the tropomyosin receptor tyrosine kinases (TRKs) TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC. Fusion proteins that include ROS1 or TRK domains can drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signaling pathways leading to unconstrained cell proliferation.
Indications
Sourced from openFDA- AUGTYRO is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of • adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic ROS1- positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ( 1.1 ) • adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with solid tumors that: • have a neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase ( NTRK ) gene fusion and • are locally advanced or metastatic or where surgical resection is likely to result in severe morbidity.ICD-10: C34.90
Contraindications

Dosage & administration
Sourced from openFDA• Select patients for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC based on the presence of ROS1 rearrangement(s) in tumor specimens. ( 2.1 ) • Select patients for treatment of locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors based on the presence of an NTRK gene fusion. ( 2.1 ) • Recommended Dosage : 160 mg orally once daily for 14 days, then increase to 160 mg twice daily, with or without food. ( 2.4 ) 2.1 Patient Selection NSCLC Select patients for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with AUGTYRO based on the presence of ROS1 rearrangement(s) in tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . An FDA-approved test to detect ROS1 rearrangements for selecting patients for treatment with AUGTYRO is not currently available. Solid Tumors Select patients for the treatment of solid tumors with AUGTYRO based on the presence of NTRK1/2/3 rearrangements in tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . An FDA-approved test to detect NTRK1/2/3 rearrangements for selecting patients for treatment with AUGTYRO is not currently available. • In patients with secretory breast cancer or mammary analogue secretory cancer, consider treatment without confirmation of NTRK rearrangements in tumor specimens. 2.2 Important Information Prior to Initiating AUGTYRO Prior to initiating AUGTYRO, discontinue strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors for 3 to 5 elimination half-lives of the CYP3A inhibitor [see Drug Interactions (7.1) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ].
Warnings & precautions
Sourced from openFDA• Central Nervous System (CNS) Effects: Can cause CNS adverse reactions including dizziness, ataxia, and cognitive impairment. Withhold and then resume at same or reduced dose upon improvement, or permanently discontinue AUGTYRO based on severity. ( 5.1 ) • Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis: Monitor patients for new or worsening pulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis. Immediately withhold in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. ( 5.2 ) • Hepatotoxicity: Monitor liver function tests every 2 weeks during the first month of treatment, and as clinically indicated thereafter. Based on severity, withhold and then resume at same or reduced dose, or permanently discontinue. ( 5.3 ) • Myalgia with Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) Elevation: Monitor serum CPK levels during treatment in patients reporting unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness.

( 6.1) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Bristol-Myers Squibb at 1-800-721-5072 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates reported 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 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and below reflects exposure to AUGTYRO in 426 patients with ROS1 -positive NSCLC (n=320), NTRK1/2/3 -positive solid tumors (n=104), or other solid tumors (n=2) in TRIDENT-1.
Use in specific populations
Sourced from openFDA• Lactation : Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 ) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on literature reports in humans with congenital mutations leading to changes in TRK signaling, findings from animal studies, and its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ], AUGTYRO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on AUGTYRO use in pregnant women. Oral administration of repotrectinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in fetal malformations at doses approximately 0.3 times the recommended dose of 160 mg twice daily based on BSA (see Data) . Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Human Data Published reports of individuals with congenital mutations in TRK pathway proteins suggest that decreases in TRK-mediated signaling are correlated with obesity, developmental delays, cognitive impairment, insensitivity to pain, and anhidrosis.
Pharmacokinetics
Sourced from openFDA- Metabolism
- The geometric mean (CV%) of repotrectinib steady state peak concentration (C max,ss ) is 713 (32.5%) ng/mL and the area under the time concentration curve (AUC 0-24h,ss ) is 7210 (40.1%) ng•h/mL following the approved recommended twice daily dosage in patients with cancer. Repotrectinib C max and AUC 0-inf increases approximately dose proportional (but less than linear with estimated slopes of 0.78 and 0.70, respectively) over the single dose range of 40 mg to 240 mg (0.25 to 1.5 times the approved recommended dosage).
