What Drugs, Substances, or Supplements Interact with Augtyro?

Augtyro may interact with other medicines such as:

  • strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors,
  • P-gp inhibitors,
  • strong and moderate CYP3A inducers,
  • certain CYP3A substrates, and
  • hormonal contraceptives.
  • Tell your doctor all medications and supplements you use.

Augtyro During Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant before using Augtyro; it may harm a fetus. The pregnancy status of individuals of childbearing should be verified potential prior to initiating Augtyro. Augtyro can render some hormonal contraceptives ineffective. Females of childbearing potential are advised to use effective non-hormonal contraception during treatment with Augtyro and for 2 months following the last dose.

Based on genotoxicity findings, male patients with female partners of childbearing potential are advised to use effective contraception during treatment with Augtyro and for 4 months following the last dose. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed children from Augtyro, breastfeeding is not recommended while using Augtyro and for 10 days after the last dose.

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. Patients received AUGTYRO at a dose of 160 mg orally once daily for the first 14 days, then increased to 160 mg orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity [see Clinical Studies]. Eligible patients had an ECOG status of ≤1. Patients with a history of ILD, drug-related pneumonitis, significant, uncontrolled, active cardiovascular disease, or prolonged QTc interval were excluded from enrollment in this trial. Forty-eight percent of patients were exposed to AUGTYRO for at least 6 months, and 28% were exposed for greater than 1 year.

The median age of patients who received AUGTYRO was 57 years (range: 18 to 93); 59% female; 43% White, 47% Asian, 2.8% Black, 0.5% Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, 0.5% American Indian or Alaska Native, 6.1% race not reported or other, and 0.7% unknown.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 35% of patients who received AUGTYRO. Serious adverse reactions in ≥2% of patients included pneumonia (6.3%), dyspnea (3.1%), pleural effusion (2.8%), and hypoxia (2.6%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 3.5% of patients who received AUGTYRO, including pneumonia, pneumonia aspiration, cardiac arrest, sudden cardiac death, cardiac failure, hypoxia, dyspnea, respiratory failure, tremor, and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Permanent discontinuation of AUGTYRO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 7% of patients. There were no specific adverse reactions that accounted for ≥1% of permanent discontinuations.

Dosage interruptions of AUGTYRO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 50% of patients. Adverse reactions that required dosage interruption in ≥2% of patients were dizziness, dyspnea, muscular weakness, ataxia, pneumonia, peripheral neuropathy, anemia, and vomiting.

Dose reductions of AUGTYRO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 38% of patients. Adverse reactions that required dosage reductions in ≥2% of patients included dizziness, ataxia, muscular weakness, peripheral neuropathy, and cognitive impairment.

The most common (≥20%) adverse reactions that occurred in patients receiving AUGTYRO were dizziness, dysgeusia, peripheral neuropathy, constipation, dyspnea, fatigue, ataxia, cognitive impairment, muscular weakness and nausea.

Drug Interactions for Augtyro

Effects Of Other Drugs On AUGTYRO

Strong And Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors

Avoid concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors. Concomitant use of AUGTYRO with a strong or a moderate CYP3A inhibitor may increase repotrectinib exposure, which may increase the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of AUGTYRO. Discontinue CYP3A inhibitors for 3 to 5 elimination half-lives of the CYP3A inhibitor prior to initiating AUGTYRO [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].

P-gp Inhibitors

Avoid concomitant use with P-gp inhibitors. Concomitant use of AUGTYRO with a P-gp inhibitor may increase repotrectinib exposure, which may increase the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of AUGTYRO [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].

Strong And Moderate CYP3A Inducers

Avoid concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. Concomitant use of AUGTYRO with a strong or moderate CYP3A inducer may decrease repotrectinib plasma concentrations, which may decrease efficacy of AUGTYRO [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].

Effects Of AUGTYRO On Other Drugs

Certain CYP3A4 Substrates

Avoid concomitant use unless otherwise recommended in the Prescribing Information for CYP3A substrates, where minimal concentration changes can cause reduced efficacy. If concomitant use is unavoidable, increase the CYP3A4 substrate dosage in accordance with approved product labeling.

Repotrectinib is a CYP3A4 inducer. Concomitant use of repotrectinib decreases the concentration of CYP3A4 substrates [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which can reduce the efficacy of these substrates.

Contraceptives

Repotrectinib is a CYP3A4 inducer, which can decrease progestin or estrogen exposure to an extent that could reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives.

Avoid concomitant use of AUGTYRO with hormonal contraceptives [see Use In Specific Populations]. Advise females of reproductive potential to use an effective nonhormonal contraceptive [see Use In Specific Populations].

Overdose Information for Augtyro

No Information provided

Contraindications for Augtyro

None.

Clinical Pharmacology for Augtyro

Mechanism Of Action

Repotrectinib 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. Repotrectinib exhibited anti-tumor activity in cultured cells expressing ROS1 fusions and mutations including SDC4-ROS1, SDC4-ROS1G2032R, CD74-ROS1, CD74-ROS1G2032R, CD74ROS1D2033N, and CD74-ROS1L2026M. Repotrectinib also inhibited cell proliferation in cultured cells expressing NTRK fusions and mutations including LMNA-TRKA, LMNA-TRKAG595R, EVT6TRKBG639R, and ETV6-TRKCG623R.

Pharmacodynamics

Repotrectinib exposure-response relationships and the time course of pharmacodynamic responses are not fully characterized.

Cardiac Electrophysiology

AUGTYRO does not cause a mean increase in the QTc interval > 20 milliseconds (ms) at 160 mg QD followed by 160 mg BID, the approved recommended dosage.

Pharmacokinetics

The geometric mean (CV%) of repotrectinib steady state peak concentration (Cmax,ss) is 713 (32.5%) ng/mL and the area under the time concentration curve (AUC0-24h,ss) is 7210 (40.1%) ng•h/mL following the approved recommended twice daily dosage in patients with cancer.

Repotrectinib Cmax and AUC0-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). Steady state PK was time-dependent with an autoinduction of CYP3A4. Steady state is achieved within 14 days of daily administration of 160 mg.

Absorption

The geometric mean (CV%) absolute bioavailability of repotrectinib is 45.7% (19.6%). Peak repotrectinib concentration occurred at approximately 2 to 3 hours post a single oral dose of 40 mg to 240 mg (0.25 to 1.5 times the approved recommended dosage) under fasted conditions.

Effect of Food

No clinically significant differences in repotrectinib pharmacokinetics were observed in patients with cancer following administration of a high-fat meal (approximately 800-1000 calories, 50% fat).

Distribution

The geometric mean (CV%) apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F) was 432 L (55.9 %) in patients with cancer following a single 160 mg oral dose of AUGTYRO.

AUGTYRO binding to plasma protein was 95.4% in vitro. The blood-to-plasma ratio was 0.56 in vitro.

Elimination

Repotrectinib elimination is time-dependent due to autoinduction of CYP3A4.

The repotrectinib mean terminal half-life is approximately 60.7 h for patients with cancer following a single dose. The steady state repotrectinib terminal half-life is approximately 40.3 h for patients with cancer.

The geometric mean (CV%) apparent oral clearance (CL/F) was 15.9 L/h (45.5%) in patients with cancer following a single 160 mg oral dose of AUGTYRO.

Metabolism

Repotrectinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 followed by secondary glucuronidation.

Excretion

Following a single oral 160 mg dose of radiolabeled repotrectinib, 4.84% (0.56% as unchanged) was recovered in urine and 88.8% (50.6% unchanged) in feces.

Specific Populations

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of repotrectinib were observed based on age (12 to 93 years), sex, race (White 50%, Asian 38%, Black 7%), mild to moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30 to < 90 mL/min), or mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 times ULN or AST > ULN). The effect of moderate (total bilirubin >1.5 to 3 times ULN with any AST) or severe (total bilirubin >3 x ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment, severe renal impairment, kidney failure (eGFR < 30 mL/min), or dialysis on repotrectinib pharmacokinetics is unknown or not fully characterized.

Drug Interaction Studies

Clinical Studies

Strong CYP3A and P-gp inhibitors

Repotrectinib AUC0-inf increased by 5.9-fold and Cmax by 1.7fold following concomitant use with itraconazole (strong CYP3A and P-gp inhibitor).

Strong CYP3A and P-gp inducers

Repotrectinib AUC0-inf decreased by 92% and Cmax by 79% following concomitant use with rifampin (strong CYP3A and P-gp inducer).

Midazolam (CYP3A substrate AUC0-inf decreased by 69% and Cmax by 48% following concomitant use in subjects who were previously administered 160 mg repotrectinib once daily for 14 days followed by 160 mg twice daily for 7 days.

In Vitro Studies

CYP Enzymes

Repotrectinib induces CYP3A4, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2C9 and inhibits CYP3A4/5 (GI tract). Repotrectinib does not induce CYP1A2.

Other Metabolic Pathways

Repotrectinib inhibits UGT1A1.

Transporter Systems

Repotrectinib inhibits P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, and MATE2-K. Repotrectinib is a substrate for P-gp.

Clinical Studies

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic ROS1-Positive NSCLC

The efficacy of AUGTYRO was evaluated in TRIDENT-1, a multicenter, single-arm, open-label, multi-cohort clinical trial (NCT03093116). Patients were required to have ROS1-positive locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC, ECOG performance status ≤1, measurable disease per RECIST v 1.1, and ≥8 months from first dose. All patients were assessed for CNS lesions at baseline, and patients with symptomatic brain metastases were excluded from the trial. Patients received AUGTYRO 160 mg orally once daily for 14 days, then increased to 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor assessments were performed at least every 8 weeks. Identification of ROS1 gene fusions in tumor specimens was prospectively determined in local laboratories using next-generation sequencing (NGS), polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) tests. All ROS1-positive patients by local FISH testing required central laboratory confirmation of ROS1 fusion using an analytically validated NGS test. ROS1 fusions were identified by NGS in 51%, FISH in 26%, and PCR in 23%. The major efficacy outcome measures were overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) according to RECIST v1.1 as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Intracranial response according to modified RECIST v1.1 was assessed by BICR. Tumor assessments with imaging were performed every 8 weeks. The efficacy populations included 71 ROS1 TKI-naïve patients who received up to 1 prior line of platinum-based chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy and 56 patients who received 1 prior ROS1 TKI with no prior platinum-based chemotherapy or immunotherapy.

Among the 71 ROS1 TKI-naïve patients, the median age was 57 years (range: 28 to 80); female (60.6%); Asian (67.6%), White (25.4%), Hispanic or Latino (4.2%), Black or African American (1.4%); never smoked (63.4%); and ECOG performance status of 1 at baseline (66.2%). At baseline, 94.4% of patients had metastatic disease, 25.4% of patients had CNS metastases by BICR; 97.2% had adenocarcinoma; and 28.2% patients had prior chemotherapy consisting of platinum-based chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease.

Among the 56 patients who had received 1 prior ROS1 TKI (including crizotinib [82%] and entrectinib [16%]) with no prior platinum-based chemotherapy or immunotherapy, the median age was 57 years (range: 33 – 78); female (67.9%); Asian (48.2%), White (44.6%), Black or African American and Hispanic or Latino (1.8% each); never smoked (64.3%); and ECOG performance status of 1 at baseline (67.9%). At baseline, 98.2% patients had metastatic disease, 42.9% with CNS metastases by BICR, and 94.6% had adenocarcinoma.

Efficacy results are summarized in Table 5.

The efficacy of AUGTYRO was evaluated in TRIDENT-1 (NCT03093116), a multi-center, single-arm, open-label, multi-cohort clinical trial in 88 adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NTRK gene fusion-positive (NTRK1/2/3) solid tumors who had either received a prior TKI treatment or were TKI-naïve. All patients were assessed for CNS lesions at baseline, and patients with symptomatic brain metastases were excluded from the trial. Patients received AUGTYRO 160 mg orally once daily for 14 days, then increased to 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks. NTRK gene fusions were identified prospectively using NGS in 94%, FISH in 5%, and PCR in 1%. NTRK gene fusion-positive tumors identified by local FISH testing required central laboratory confirmation using an analytically validated NGS test. The major efficacy outcome measures were ORR and DOR according to RECIST v1.1 as assessed by BICR. Intracranial response according to modified RECIST v1.1 was assessed by BICR.

Among the 40 TRK TKI-naïve patients, the median age was 61 years (range: 25 to 84); 60% were female patients; race was Asian 53%, White 25%, Black or African American 5%, and other or not reported 18%; ethnicity was Hispanic or Latino 5%, not Hispanic or Latino 87%, and not reported 8%; and ECOG performance status of 1 at baseline was 55%. At baseline, 98% of patients had metastatic disease and 23% of patients had CNS metastases by BICR. Seventy percent (n=28) of patients received prior systemic therapy with a median of one prior systemic regimen, and 7.5% (n=3) received three or more prior systemic regimens.

Among the 48 TRK TKI-pretreated patients, the median age was 58 years (range: 20 to 81); 48% were female patients; race was White 65%, Asian 25%, Black or African American 2%, and not reported 8%; ethnicity was not Hispanic or Latino 92%, and missing 8%; and ECOG performance status of 1 at baseline was 60%. At baseline, 96% of patients had metastatic disease and 25% of patients had CNS metastases by BICR. Seventy-seven percent (n=37) of patients received 2 or more prior systemic regimens, and 46% (n=22) received three or more prior systemic regimens, and 7 patients (15%) received 2 prior TKI therapies.

Efficacy results are summarized in Table 6.

Among the 88 patients, 5 had measurable CNS metastases at baseline as assessed by BICR. Responses were seen in 2 (100%) TKI-naïve patients and 3 (100%) TKI-pretreated patients. One out of 2 TKI-naïve and 2 out of 3 TKI-pretreated patients received prior radiotherapy to the brain, all more than 2 months prior to study entry.

Twenty-six of the TRK TKI-pretreated patients had a resistance mutation at baseline, including 24 with solvent front mutations (NTRK1G595R and NTRK3G623L/R/E/V mutations), one with both a solvent front mutation and a gatekeeper mutation (NTRK1F589L), and one with another mutation (NTRK1G667C). In the 25 TKI-pretreated patients with solvent front mutations at baseline, ORR was 60% (95% CI: 39, 79).
