SUNITINIB MALATE

Sunitinib is a kinase inhibitor present in sunitinib malate capsules as the malate salt. Sunitinib malate is described chemically as N -[2-(Diethylamino)ethyl]-5-[( Z )-(5-fluoro-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3 H -indol-3-ylidene)methyl]-2,4-dimethyl-1 H -pyrrole-3-carboxamide hydrogen (2 S )-2-hydroxybutanedioate. The molecular formula is C 22 H 27 FN 4 O 2 • C 4 H 6 O 5 and the molecular weight is 532.6. The chemical structure of sunitinib malate is: Sunitinib malate is a yellow to orange powder with a pKa of 8.95. The solubility of sunitinib malate in aqueous media over the range pH 1.2 to pH 6.8 is in excess of 25 mg/mL. The log of the distribution coefficient (octanol/water) at pH 7 is 5.2. Sunitinib malate capsules are supplied as printed hard-shell capsules containing 12.5 mg, 25 mg, 37.5 mg or 50 mg of sunitinib (equivalent to 16.7 mg, 33.4 mg, 50.1 mg, or 66.8 mg of sunitinib malate, respectively). The capsules contain the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, gelatin, magnesium stearate, mannitol, sodium lauryl sulfate and titanium dioxide. The 12.5 mg and 25 mg strengths also contain red iron oxide. The 25 mg, 37.5 mg and 50 mg strengths also contain yellow iron oxide. In addition, the black imprinting ink contains the following: ammonium hydroxide, black iron oxide, propylene glycol and shellac glaze. Sunitinib Structural Formula

The pooled safety population described in the Warnings and Precautions reflect exposure to sunitinib malate in 7527 patients with GIST, RCC (advanced and adjuvant), or pNET . In this pooled safety population, the most common adverse reactions (≥ 25%) were fatigue/asthenia, diarrhea, mucositis/stomatitis, nausea, decreased appetite/anorexia, vomiting, abdominal pain, hand-foot syndrome, hypertension, bleeding events, dysgeusia/altered taste, dyspepsia, and thrombocytopenia. Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor The safety of sunitinib malate capsules was evaluated in Study 1, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which previously treated patients with GIST received sunitinib malate capsules 50 mg daily on Schedule 4/2 (n = 202) or placebo (n = 102). Median duration of blinded study treatment was 2 cycles for patients on sunitinib malate capsules (mean: 3.0; range: 1-9) and 1 cycle (mean; 1.8; range: 1-6) for patients on placebo at the time of the interim analysis. Permanent discontinuation due to an adverse reaction occurred in 7% of patients in the sunitinib malate capsules arm. Dose reductions occurred in 11% and dose interruptions occurred in 29% of patients who received sunitinib malate capsules. Table 3 summarizes the adverse reactions for Study 1. Table 3.

The analysis included 5739 patients, of whom 807 (14%) were treated for at least 2 years and 365 (6%) for at least 3 years. Prolonged treatment with sunitinib malate capsules did not appear to be associated with new types of adverse reactions. There appeared to be no increase in the yearly incidence of adverse reactions at later time points. Hypothyroidism increased during the second year of treatment with new cases reported up to year 4. Adjuvant Treatment of RCC The safety of sunitinib malate capsules was evaluated in S-TRAC, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which patients who had undergone nephrectomy for RCC received sunitinib malate capsules 50 mg daily on Schedule 4/2 (n = 306) or placebo (n = 304). The median duration of treatment was 12.4 months (range: 0.13 to 14.9) for sunitinib malate capsules and 12.4 months (range: 0.03 to 13.7) for placebo. Permanent discontinuation due to an adverse reaction occurred in 28% of patients in the sunitinib malate capsules arm. Adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation in > 2% of patients include hand-foot syndrome and fatigue/asthenia. Dosing interruptions occurred in 54% and dose reductions occurred in 46% of patients who received sunitinib malate capsules. Table 7 summarizes the adverse reactions in S-TRAC. Table 7.

Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 3.0. % Grade 3-4 , Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in patients on sunitinib malate capsules included creatinine (4%), lipase (4%), glucose decreased (2%), glucose increased (2%), neutrophils (2%), ALT (1%), AST (1%), platelets (1%), potassium increased (1%), and total bilirubin (1%). % All Grades % Grade 3-4 , Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in patients on placebo included creatinine (3%), alkaline phosphatase (1%), glucose increased (1%), and lipase (1%). % Gastrointestinal AST increased 72 5 70 3 Alkaline phosphatase increased 63 10 70 11 ALT increased 61 4 55 3 Total bilirubin increased 37 1 28 4 Amylase increased 20 4 10 1 Lipase increased 17 5 11 4 Hematology Neutrophils decreased 71 16 16 0 Hemoglobin decreased 65 0 55 1 Platelets decreased 60 5 15 0 Lymphocytes decreased 56 7 35 4 Renal/Metabolic Glucose increased 71 12 78 18 Albumin decreased 41 1 37 1 Phosphorus decreased 36 7 22 5 Calcium decreased 34 0 19 0 Sodium decreased 29 2 34 3 Creatinine increased 27 5 28 5 Glucose decreased 22 2 15 4 Potassium decreased 21 4 14 0 Magnesium decreased 19 0 10 0 Potassium increased 18 1 11 1 Venous Thromboembolic Events In pooled safety population, 3.5% of patients experienced a venous thromboembolic event, including Grade 3-4 in 2.2% of patients. Pancreatic Function Pancreatitis was observed in 1 patient (1%) in the pNET study, 5 patients (1%) in the treatment-naïve RCC study, and 1 patient (< 1%) in the adjuvant treatment for RCC study on sunitinib malate capsules. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of sunitinib malate capsules. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Blood and Lymphatic System Disorders: hemorrhage associated with thrombocytopenia * . Gastrointestinal Disorders: esophagitis. Hepatobiliary Disorders: cholecystitis, particularly acalculous cholecystitis. Immune System Disorders: hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema. Infections and Infestations: serious infection (with or without neutropenia) * . The infections most commonly observed with sunitinib malate capsules include respiratory, urinary tract, skin infections, and sepsis/septic shock. Musculoskeletal and Connective Tissue Disorders: fistula formation, sometimes associated with tumor necrosis and/or regression * ; myopathy and/or rhabdomyolysis with or without acute renal failure*. Renal and Urinary Disorders: renal impairment and/or failure * . Respiratory Disorders: pulmonary embolism * , pleural effusion * . Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders: pyoderma gangrenosum, including positive de-challenges. Vascular Disorders: arterial (including aortic) aneurysms, dissections*, and rupture*; arterial thromboembolic events * . The most frequent events included cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, and cerebral infarction. General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions: impaired wound healing. * including some fatalities

• CYP3A4 Inhibitors : Consider dose reduction of sunitinib malate capsules when administered with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. ( 7.1 ) • CYP3A4 Inducers : Consider dose increase of sunitinib malate capsules when administered with strong CYP3A4 inducers. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on Sunitinib Malate Capsules Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors Co-administration with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase sunitinib plasma concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Select an alternate concomitant medication with no or minimal enzyme inhibition potential. Consider a dose reduction for sunitinib malate capsules when it is co-administered with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) ] . Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Co-administration with strong CYP3A4 inducers may decrease sunitinib plasma concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Select an alternate concomitant medication with no or minimal enzyme induction potential. Consider a dose increase for sunitinib malate capsules when it must be co-administered with CYP3A4 inducers [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) ] . 7.2 Drugs that Prolong QT Interval Sunitinib malate capsules are associated with QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] . Monitor the QT interval with ECGs more frequently in patients who require treatment with concomitant medications known to prolong the QT interval.
