5.1 Hyperglycemia
Additions and/or
revisions underlined:
TRUQAP can cause
severe hyperglycemia, including diabetic ketoacidosis and
fatal outcomes. Withhold TRUQAP in clinical situations known to increase
the risk of severe hyperglycemia or ketoacidosis (e.g., suspected
serious infection or acute illness). Before initiating treatment
with TRUQAP, test fasting glucose levels (FPG or FBG), HbA1C levels, and
optimize fasting glucose.
After initiating treatment with TRUQAP, monitor or
self-monitor fasting glucose levels on Day 3 or 4 of the dosing week during
weeks 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8; then monthly while on treatment with TRUQAP; and as
clinically indicated. Monitor HbA1C levels every 3 months during treatment with
TRUQAP and as clinically indicated and manage changes as appropriate.
Patients with a history of well-controlled Type 2 diabetes mellitus may require
intensified anti-hyperglycemic treatment and require close monitoring of
fasting glucose levels.
. . .
The safety of TRUQAP has not been established in
patients with Type 1 diabetes or Type 2 diabetes that is uncontrolled or
requiring insulin at baseline as these patients were excluded from clinical
studies [see Clinical Studies
(14.1,14.2)].
Based on the severity of the hyperglycemia,
withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].
CAPItello-291
Increased fasting glucose from baseline occurred in
37% of patients treated with TRUQAP, including 11% of patients with Grade 2 (FG
greater than 160 to 250 mg/dL), 2% with Grade 3 (FG greater than 250 to 500
mg/dL), and 1.1% with Grade 4 (FG greater than 500 mg/dL) events.
The median time to first occurrence of hyperglycemia
was 15 days (range: 1 to 367). Dose reduction for hyperglycemia was required in
0.6% of patients and permanent discontinuation was required in 0.6% of
patients.
Diabetic metabolic decompensation occurred in 0.6%
of patients, including diabetic ketoacidosis in 0.3%.
In CAPItello-291, 12% (43/355) of patients who
received TRUQAP had an anti-hyperglycemic medication regimen either initiated
or changed during the study, including treatment with insulin in 4.8% (17/355)
of patients.
CAPItello-281
Increased fasting glucose from baseline occurred in
69% of patients treated with TRUQAP, including 25% of patients with Grade 2 (FG
greater than 160 to 250 mg/dL), 12% with Grade 3 (FG greater than 250 to 500
mg/dL), and 1.2% of patients with Grade 4 (FG greater than 500 mg/dL) events.
The median time to first occurrence of hyperglycemia
was 71 days (range: 1 to 1454). Dose reduction for hyperglycemia was required
in 8.7% of patients and permanent discontinuation was required in 2.4% of
patients.
Diabetic ketoacidosis occurred in 1.2% of patients.
In CAPItello-281, 41% (204/503) of patients who
received TRUQAP had an anti-hyperglycemic medication regimen either initiated
or changed during the study, including treatment with insulin in 16% (81/503)
of patients.
5.2 Diarrhea
Additions and/or
revisions underlined:
TRUQAP
can cause severe diarrhea
associated with dehydration.
Monitor
patients for signs and symptoms of diarrhea. Advise patients to increase oral
fluids and start antidiarrheal treatment at the first sign of diarrhea while
taking TRUQAP. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based
on severity [see Dosage and
Administration (2.5)].
CAPItello-291
Diarrhea
occurred in 72% of patients. Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea occurred in 9% of patients.
The median time to first occurrence was 8 days (range 1 to 519). In the 257
patients with diarrhea, 59% required anti-diarrheal medications to manage
symptoms. Dose reductions were required in 8% of patients, and 2% of patients
permanently discontinued TRUQAP due to diarrhea. In patients with Grade ? 2
diarrhea (n=93) with at least 1 grade improvement (n=89), median time to
improvement from the first event was 4 days (range: 1 to 154).
CAPItello-281
In
CAPItello-281, diarrhea of any grade occurred in 264 (52%) patients, Grade 3
occurred in 31 (6%) patients and
Grade
4 occurred in 1 (0.2%) patient. The median time to first occurrence was 12 days
(range: 3 to 48). In the study, dose reductions were required in 26 (5%)
patients and 6 (1.2%) patients discontinued TRUQAP due to diarrhea. In the
264
patients with diarrhea, anti-diarrheal medication was required in 64% (170/264)
of patients to manage diarrhea symptoms.
5.3 Cutaneous
Adverse Reactions
Additions and/or
revisions underlined:
TRUQAP
can cause cutaneous adverse
reactions, which can be severe, including erythema multiforme (EM),
palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and
systemic symptoms (DRESS).
Monitor
patients for signs and symptoms of cutaneous adverse reactions. Early
consultation with a dermatologist is recommended. Withhold, reduce dose, or
permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].
CAPItello-291
Cutaneous
adverse reactions occurred in 58% of patients. Grade 3 or 4 cutaneous adverse
reactions occurred in 17% of patients receiving TRUQAP. EM occurred in 1.7% of
patients, and DRESS occurred in 0.3% of patients. Dose reduction was required
in 7% of patients and 7% of patients permanently discontinued TRUQAP due to
cutaneous adverse reactions.
The
median time to onset of cutaneous adverse reactions was 13 days (range 1 to 575
days). Among the 204 patients with cutaneous adverse reactions, 44% (90/204)
required corticosteroid treatment. Of these, 37% (76/204) were treated with
topical corticosteroids and 19% (39/204) with systemic corticosteroids. In
patients with Grade ? 2 cutaneous adverse reaction (n=116) with at least 1
grade improvement (n=104), median time to improvement from the first event was
12 days (range 2 to 544).
CAPItello-281
Cutaneous
adverse reactions occurred in 53% of patients. Grade 3 cutaneous adverse
reactions occurred in 84 (17%) patients and Grade 4 occurred in 1 (0.2%)
patient. In the study, dose reduction was required in 58 (12%) patients and 38
(8%) patients discontinued TRUQAP due to rash. The median time to onset of rash
was 13 days (range: 11 to 63 days). Among the 265
patients with cutaneous adverse reactions, 80% (212/265) required treatment and
91% (242/265) recovered in the study. Of these, 54% (115/212) were treated with
topical corticosteroids and 25% (54/212) with systemic corticosteroids.
