Dosing in kidney impairment

Renal Impairment The effect of severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min) or dialysis on zidesamtinib pharmacokinetics is unknown. No dosage modification is recommended for patients with eGFR 30 to 90 mL/min [see Clinical Pharmacology] .

Dosing in liver impairment

Hepatic Impairment The effect of severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >3 times ULN with any AST) on the zidesamtinib pharmacokinetics is unknown. No dosage modification is recommended for patients with mild (total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 times ULN or AST > ULN) or moderate (total bilirubin >1.5 to 3 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology] .

Label text (2 paragraphs)

Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 ) Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 )

7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on JIDEYTRO Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors Avoid concomitant use of JIDEYTRO with a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor. Zidesamtinib is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use with a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor increases zidesamtinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may increase the risk of JIDEYTRO adverse reactions. Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inducers Avoid concomitant use of JIDEYTRO with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. Concomitant use of JIDEYTRO with a strong or moderate CYP3A inducer may decrease zidesamtinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )], which may decrease the effectiveness of JIDEYTRO.

Contraindications

Pregnancy and lactation

Pregnancy

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 )] , JIDEYTRO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on JIDEYTRO use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. Oral administration of zidesamtinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal mortality, alterations to growth, and structural abnormalities at maternal exposures approximately equivalent to the human exposure at the recommended dose based on AUC ( 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. Animal Data In an embryo-fetal development study, pregnant rats received oral doses of 3, 8, or 30 mg/kg/day of zidesamtinib during the period of organogenesis (gestation day 6 to 17).

Zidesamtinib caused decreased fetal body weight, visceral malformations (absent kidneys and ureter), and an increase in the incidence of skeletal variations, including misshapen sternebra and cervical arch and incomplete ossification of the sternebra and thoracic centrum at 3 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.4 times the human exposure at the recommended dose based on AUC). Zidesamtinib resulted in complete litter resorption (post-implantation loss) at doses ≥8 mg/kg/day (approximately ≥3.5 times the human exposure at the recommended dose based on AUC).
