Warnings & Precautions
• Left Ventricular Dysfunction : Assess ejection fraction prior to initiating treatment, every 3 months during the first year, then every 6 months thereafter and as clinically indicated. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction. ( 2.3 , 5.1 ) • Ocular Toxicity : Conduct ophthalmic assessments prior to initiating KOSELUGO, at regular intervals during treatment and for new or worsening visual changes. Permanently discontinue KOSELUGO for retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Withhold KOSELUGO for retinal pigment epithelial detachment (RPED), monitor with optical coherence tomography assessments until resolution, and resume at reduced dose. ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) • Gastrointestinal Toxicity : Advise patients to start an anti-diarrheal agent immediately after the first episode of loose stool and to increase fluid intake. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction. ( 2.3 , 5.3 ) • Skin Toxicity : Monitor for severe skin rashes. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction. ( 2.3 , 5.4 ) • Increased Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) : Increased CPK and rhabdomyolysis can occur. Obtain serum CPK prior to initiating KOSELUGO, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. If increased CPK occurs, evaluate for rhabdomyolysis or other causes. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction. ( 2.3 , 5.5 ) • Increased Vitamin E Levels and Increased Risk of Bleeding (KOSELUGO Capsules) : KOSELUGO capsules contain vitamin E and daily intake of vitamin E that exceeds the recommended or safe limits may increase the risk of bleeding. An increased risk of bleeding may occur in patients co-administered vitamin-K antagonists or anti-platelet agents. KOSELUGO oral granules do not contain vitamin E. ( 5.6 ) • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise patients of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception ( 5.7 , 8.1 , 8.3 ). 5.1 Left Ventricular Dysfunction KOSELUGO can cause cardiomyopathy, defined as a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 10% below baseline. KOSELUGO has not been studied in patients with a history of clinically significant cardiac disease or LVEF less than 55% prior to treatment. Pediatric patients In the NF1 PN pediatric safety pool (N = 134) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], Grade 2 LVEF decrease [Grade 2 LVEF decrease (40% to 50%; 10 to 19% drop from baseline)], based on reported adverse reactions, occurred in 17% of evaluable patients. Decreased LVEF of ≥ 20% occurred in 0.7% of patients and resulted in dose interruption and dose reduction. Decreased LVEF resolved in 75% of these patients. The median time to first occurrence of LVEF decrease was approximately 12 months (median duration approximately 3 months). Adult Patients In the KOMET adult NF1 PN study (N = 71) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], Grade 2 LVEF decrease [Grade 2 LVEF decrease (40% to 50%; 10 to 19% drop from baseline)], based on echocardiogram results, occurred in 14% of evaluable patients. Decreased LVEF resulted in dose interruption in 1.4% of patients. The median time to first occurrence of LVEF decrease was approximately 4 months (median duration approximately 4 months). Assess ejection fraction by echocardiogram prior to initiating treatment, every 3 months during the first year of treatment, every 6 months thereafter, and as clinically indicated. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. In patients who interrupt KOSELUGO for decreased LVEF, obtain an echocardiogram or a cardiac MRI every 3 to 6 weeks until resolution. Upon resolution of decreased LVEF to greater than or equal to the institutional LLN, obtain an echocardiogram or a cardiac MRI every 2 to 3 months or as directed by the cardiologist. 5.2 Ocular Toxicity KOSELUGO can cause ocular toxicity, including retinal vein occlusion (RVO), retinal pigment epithelial detachment (RPED), and blurred vision. Pediatric Patients In the NF1 PN pediatric safety pool (N = 134) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], blurred vision, photophobia, cataracts, ocular hypertension, and retinal tear occurred in 13% of pediatric patients receiving KOSELUGO. Blurred vision resulted in dose interruption in 1.5% of patients. Ocular toxicity resolved in 76% of these patients. RPED occurred in the pediatric population during treatment with single agent KOSELUGO and resulted in permanent discontinuation. Adult Patients In the KOMET adult NF1 PN study (N = 71) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], blurred vision and vitreous floaters occurred in 6% of patients receiving KOSELUGO. Serious ocular toxicities including RVO and RPED, occurred in an unapproved population of adult patients with multiple tumor types who received KOSELUGO as a single agent or in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Conduct comprehensive ophthalmic assessments prior to initiating KOSELUGO, at regular intervals during treatment, and for new or worsening visual changes. Permanently discontinue KOSELUGO in patients with RVO. Withhold KOSELUGO in patients with RPED, follow up with optical coherence tomography assessments every 3 weeks until resolution, and resume KOSELUGO at a reduced dose. For other ocular toxicities, withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of the adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. 5.3 Gastrointestinal Toxicity KOSELUGO can cause gastrointestinal toxicities, including diarrhea and colitis. Pediatric Patients In the NF1 PN pediatric safety pool (N = 134) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , diarrhea occurred in 59% of patients who received KOSELUGO, including Grade 3 in 10% of patients. Diarrhea resulting in permanent discontinuation occurred in 0.7% of patients. Diarrhea resulting in dose interruption occurred in 10% of patients. The median time to first onset of diarrhea was approximately 2 months and the median duration was 5 days. Colitis occurred in an unapproved population of pediatric patients with multiple tumor types who received KOSELUGO as a single agent. Adult Patients In the KOMET adult NF1 PN study (N = 71) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , diarrhea occurred in 42% patients who received KOSELUGO. Diarrhea resulting in dose interruption occurred in 1.4% of patients. The median time to first onset of diarrhea was approximately 1 month and the median duration was 7 days. Serious gastrointestinal toxicities, including perforation, colitis, ileus, and intestinal obstruction, occurred in an unapproved population of adult patients with multiple tumor types who received KOSELUGO as a single agent or in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Advise patients to start an anti-diarrheal agent (e.g., loperamide) immediately after the first episode of unformed, loose stool and to increase fluid intake during diarrhea episodes. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. 5.4 Skin Toxicity KOSELUGO can cause severe rashes, including dermatitis acneiform. Pediatric Patients In the NF1 PN pediatric safety pool (N = 134) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , rash occurred in 68% of patients who received KOSELUGO. The most frequent rashes included dermatitis acneiform (47%) and maculopapular rash (31%). Pruritus (30%), alopecia (26%), and eczema (24%) occurred in patients who received KOSELUGO. Grade 3 rash occurred in 5% of patients. Rash resulted in dose interruption in 8% of patients and dose reduction in 3.7% of patients. Adult Patients In the KOMET adult NF1 PN study (N = 71) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], rash occurred in 85% of patients who received KOSELUGO. The most frequent rash included dermatitis acneiform (66%). Alopecia (18%) and pruritus (10%) occurred in patients who received KOSELUGO. Grade 3 rash occurred in 4.2% of patients. Rash resulted in dose interruption in 2.8% of patients, dose reduction in 2.8% of patients, and permanent discontinuation in 2.8% of patients. Other skin toxicities, including severe palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, occurred in an unapproved population of adult patients with multiple tumor types who received KOSELUGO as a single agent or in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Monitor for severe skin rashes. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. 5.5 Increased Creatine Phosphokinase KOSELUGO can cause increased creatine phosphokinase (CPK), myalgia, and rhabdomyolysis. Pediatric Patients In the NF1 PN pediatric safety pool (N = 134) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , increased creatine phosphokinase (CPK), based on laboratory data, occurred in 73% of patients who received KOSELUGO, including Grade 3 or 4 in 8% of patients. Increased CPK resulted in dose interruption and dose reduction in 4% of patients. Increased CPK concurrent with myalgia occurred in 5% of patients, including one patient who permanently discontinued KOSELUGO for myalgia. Adults In the KOMET adult NF1 PN study (N = 71) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1 )] , increased creatine phosphokinase (CPK), based on laboratory data, occurred in 70% of patients who received KOSELUGO, including Grade 3 or 4 in 7% of patients. Increased CPK resulted in dose interruption and dose reduction in 4.2% and 2.8% of patients, respectively. Increased CPK concurrent with myalgia occurred in 1.4% of patients. Rhabdomyolysis occurred in an unapproved adult population who received KOSELUGO as a single agent. Obtain serum CPK prior to initiating KOSELUGO, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. If increased CPK occurs, evaluate patients for rhabdomyolysis or other causes. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue KOSELUGO based on severity of adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.6 Increased Levels of Vitamin E and Increased Risk of Bleeding (KOSELUGO Capsules) KOSELUGO capsules can cause increased levels of vitamin E and increased risk of bleeding. KOSELUGO capsules contain vitamin E (10 mg capsules contain 32 mg vitamin E as the excipient, D-alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS); while KOSELUGO 25 mg capsules contain 36 mg vitamin E as TPGS). Vitamin E can inhibit platelet aggregation and antagonize vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. Daily vitamin E intake that exceeds the recommended or safe limits may increase the risk of bleeding. Supplemental vitamin E is not recommended if daily vitamin E intake (including the amount of vitamin E in KOSELUGO and supplement) will exceed the recommended or safe limits. An increased risk of bleeding in patients may occur in patients who are co-administered vitamin K antagonists or anti-platelet antagonists with KOSELUGO capsules. Monitor for bleeding in these patients. Increase international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring, as appropriate, in patients taking a vitamin K antagonist. Perform anticoagulant assessments, including INR or prothrombin time, more frequently and adjust the dose of vitamin K antagonists or anti-platelet agents as appropriate. KOSELUGO oral granules do not contain vitamin E [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ]. 5.7 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on findings from clinical trials, animal studies and its mechanism of action, KOSELUGO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In KOMET, a first trimester spontaneous abortion was reported in a patient receiving KOSELUGO. In animal reproduction studies, administration of selumetinib to mice during organogenesis caused reduced fetal weight, adverse structural defects, and effects on embryo fetal survival at approximate exposures > 5 times the human exposure at the clinical dose of 25 mg/m 2 twice daily. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with KOSELUGO and for 1 week after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with KOSELUGO and for 1 week after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1 , 8.3) ] .

Pediatrics > 1 year of Age on KOSELUGO Granules (SPRINKLE) The safety of KOSELUGO oral granules was evaluated in SPRINKLE (NCT05309668), a dose-finding and activity estimating, single-arm, multicenter study in 36 pediatric patients ages 1 year to less than 7 years with a clinical diagnosis of NF1- related symptomatic, inoperable PN. The study evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, efficacy, and tolerability of KOSELUGO oral granules. Study patients were to receive KOSELUGO oral granules for 25 cycles at a dose equivalent to 25 mg/m 2 BSA twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median age was approximately 4 years (range: 1 to 7 years), 61% were male, 61% were White, 14% were Asian and 3% were Black or African American. In the SPRINKLE study, the median duration of KOSELUGO oral granules treatment in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) plexiform neurofibromas (PN) was 11 months (range: 3-25 months). Serious adverse reactions occurred in 6% of patients who received KOSELUGO oral granules. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 1 patient each and included pyrexia, gastroenteritis and upper respiratory infection. A total of 31% of patients had an adverse reaction leading to a dosage interruption. Adverse reactions requiring a dosage interruption in ≥ 5% of patients were pyrexia, vomiting, diarrhea, upper respiratory infection, gastroenteritis and eczema. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 40%) were pyrexia, dry skin, and paronychia. The observed safety profile of KOSELUGO oral granules in the SPRINKLE study was consistent with the known safety profile of KOSELUGO capsules.
