Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.The data in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Section 5.1 Encephalopathy, including Wernickes, reflect exposure to INREBIC as single agent in 608 patients who received more than one dose (ranging from 30 mg to 800 mg) in Studies JAKARTA, ARD11936, JAKARTA2, ARD12042, ARD12888, TED12037/TED12015, INT12497, and TES13519, of whom 459 were patients with myelofibrosis, including 97 patients previously treated with ruxolitinib. Among the 608 patients receiving INREBIC, the median drug exposure was 37 weeks and the median number of cycles initiated was cycles. Fifty-nine percent of 608 patients were exposed for months or longer and 39% were exposed for 12 months or longer.Using the dataset described above, the most common adverse reactions in >20% of patients (N=608) were diarrhea, nausea, anemia, vomiting, fatigue, thrombocytopenia, and constipation.. JAKARTA TrialThe safety of INREBIC was evaluated in the randomized treatment period of the JAKARTA trial [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Key eligibility criteria included adult patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk primary MF or post-PV MF or post-ET MF with splenomegaly, platelet count >=50 109/L, and no splenectomy. Patients received INREBIC at 400 mg daily (n=96) or placebo (n=95). Among patients receiving INREBIC, 82% were exposed for more than months and 65% for more than one year. Patients had median duration of exposure to INREBIC 400 mg daily of 15.5 months compared with placebo where patients were treated for months or until disease progression after which patients were allowed to crossover to active treatment. The median age of patients who received INREBIC was 65 years (range: 27 to 86 years), 59% were male, 90% were White, 8% were Asian, 1% were Black, 1% were Other, and 92% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of to 1.Serious adverse reactions occurred in 21% of INREBIC-treated patients. Serious adverse reactions in >=2% of patients receiving INREBIC 400 mg daily included cardiac failure (5%) and anemia (2%). Fatal adverse reactions of cardiogenic shock occurred in 1% of patients receiving INREBIC 400 mg daily.Permanent discontinuation due to an adverse reaction occurred in 14% of patients receiving INREBIC. Most frequent reasons for permanent discontinuation in >=2% of patients receiving INREBIC included cardiac failure (3%), thrombocytopenia, myocardial ischemia, diarrhea, and increased blood creatinine (2% each).Dosage interruptions due to an adverse reaction during the randomized treatment period occurred in 21% of patients who received INREBIC. Adverse reactions requiring dosage interruption in >3% of patients who received INREBIC included diarrhea and nausea.Dosage reductions due to an adverse reaction during the randomized treatment period occurred in 19% of patients who received INREBIC.

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.


13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Fedratinib was not carcinogenic in the 6-month Tg.rasH2 transgenic mouse model.Fedratinib was not mutagenic in bacterial mutagenicity assay (Ames test) or clastogenic in in vitro chromosomal aberration assay (Chinese hamster ovary cells) or in vivo in micronucleus test in rats.In fertility study in rats, fedratinib was administered for at least 70 days (males) and 14 days (females) prior to cohabitation and up to the implantation day (gestation day 7). Fedratinib had no effect on the estrous cycle parameters, mating performance, fertility, pregnancy rate or reproductive parameters in male or female rats at doses up to 30 mg/kg. The exposure (AUC) at the dose of 30 mg/kg/day is approximately 0.10 to 0.13 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.


12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Fedratinib is an oral kinase inhibitor with activity against wild type and mutationally activated Janus Associated Kinase (JAK2) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3). Fedratinib is JAK2-selective inhibitor with higher inhibitory activity for JAK2 over family members JAK1, JAK3 and TYK2. Abnormal activation of JAK2 is associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), including myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera. In cell models expressing mutationally active JAK2V617F or FLT3ITD, fedratinib reduced phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT3/5) proteins, inhibited cell proliferation, and induced apoptotic cell death. In mouse models of JAK2V617F-driven myeloproliferative disease, fedratinib blocked phosphorylation of STAT3/5, and improved survival, white blood cell counts, hematocrit, splenomegaly, and fibrosis. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Fedratinib inhibited cytokine-induced STAT3 phosphorylation in whole blood from patients with myelofibrosis. The inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation was maximal approximately hours after the first dose, with values returning to near baseline at 24 hours. After daily administration of fedratinib, levels of inhibition at steady state PK were similar to the maximal inhibition reached after the first dose of 300 (0.75 times the recommended dose), 400 or 500 mg (1.25 times the recommended dose) of fedratinib.. Cardiac ElectrophysiologyThe potential for QTc prolongation with fedratinib was evaluated in 31 patients with solid tumors. No large mean increase in the QTc interval (>20 ms) was detected with daily dosing of fedratinib 500 mg (1.25 times the recommended dose) for 14 days.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. INREBIC at 300 mg to 500 mg once daily (0.75 to 1.25 times the recommended dose) results in dose proportional increase in geometric mean fedratinib peak concentrations (Cmax) and the area under the plasma concentration time curve over the dosing interval (AUCtau). The mean steady state levels are achieved within 15 days of daily dosing. The mean accumulation ratio ranged between 3- to 4-fold.At the dose of 400 mg once daily, the geometric mean (coefficient of variation, %CV) fedratinib Cmax is 1804 ng/mL (49%) and AUCtau is 26870 ng.hr/mL (43%) in patients with myelofibrosis.. AbsorptionFollowing 400 mg once daily, fedratinib median time to peak concentrations (Tmax) at steady-state is hours (range: to hours).. Effect of FoodA low-fat, low-calorie (total 162 calories: 6% from fat, 78% from carbohydrate and 16% from protein) or high-fat, high-calorie (total 815 calories: 52% from fat, 33% from carbohydrate and 15% from protein) meal increased area under the curve over time to infinity (AUCinf) up to 24% and Cmax up to 14% of single 500 mg dose (1.25 times the recommended dose) of fedratinib.. DistributionThe apparent volume of distribution of fedratinib at steady-state is 1770 in patients with myelofibrosis at 400 mg once daily dose. Fedratinib is 92% or greater bound to human plasma proteins.. EliminationFedratinib pharmacokinetics is characterized by biphasic disposition with an effective half-life of 41 hours, terminal half-life of approximately 114 hours, and apparent clearance (CL/F) (%CV) of 13 L/hr (51%) in patients with myelofibrosis.. MetabolismFedratinib is metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2C19, and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO3). Fedratinib accounts for approximately 80% of total circulating drug in plasma after oral administration.. ExcretionFollowing single oral dose of radiolabeled fedratinib, 77% (23% unchanged) of the administered dose was excreted in feces and 5% (3% unchanged) was eliminated in urine.. Specific PopulationsAge (20 years to 95 years), race (White, Asians), sex, body weight (40 kg to 135 kg), mild [total bilirubin <=upper limit of normal (ULN) and AST >ULN or total bilirubin to 1.5 times ULN and any AST] or moderate (total bilirubin >1.5 to times ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment, and mild (CLcr 60 mL/min to 89 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment did not have clinically meaningful effects on the pharmacokinetics of fedratinib.The effect of severe (total bilirubin >3 times ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment on fedratinib pharmacokinetics is unknown.. Patients with Renal ImpairmentFollowing single 300 mg dose (0.75 times the recommended dose) of INREBIC, the AUCinf of fedratinib increased by 1.5-fold in subjects with moderate (CLcr 30 mL/min to 59 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment and 1.9-fold in subjects with severe (CLcr 15 mL/min to 29 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment, compared to that in subjects with normal renal function (CLcr >=90 mL/min by C-G) [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Renal Impairment (8.6)].. Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches. Effect of Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 InhibitorsCoadministration of ketoconazole (strong CYP3A4 inhibitor: 200 mg twice daily) with single dose of INREBIC (300 mg; 0.75 times the recommended dose) increased fedratinib AUCinf by 3-fold [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Drug Interactions (7.1)]. Based on modeling and simulation, coadministration of strong CYP3A4 inhibitor such as ketoconazole (400 mg once daily) with INREBIC 400 mg once daily is predicted to increase fedratinib AUC at steady state by 2-fold [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Drug Interactions (7.1)].Based on modeling and simulation, coadministration of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors, erythromycin (500 mg three times daily) or diltiazem (120 mg twice daily), with INREBIC 400 mg once daily is predicted to increase fedratinib AUC at steady state by 1.2-, and 1.1-fold, respectively.. Effect of Dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 InhibitorThe effect of concomitant administration with dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitor on fedratinib pharmacokinetics is not known [see Drug Interactions (7.1)] Effect of Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 InducersCoadministration of rifampin (strong CYP3A4 inducer: 600 mg once daily) or efavirenz (moderate CYP3A4 inducer: 600 mg once daily) with single dose of fedratinib (500 mg; 1.25 times the recommended dose) decreased AUCinf of fedratinib by approximately 81% or 47%, respectively [see Drug Interactions (7.1)]. Effect of Gastric Acid Reducing AgentsCoadministration of pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor: 40 mg once daily) with single dose of INREBIC (500 mg; 1.25 times the recommended dose) increased fedratinib AUCinf by 1.2-fold.. Effect of Fedratinib on Drugs that are CYP3A, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 SubstratesCoadministration of single dose of midazolam (CYP3A substrate: mg), omeprazole (CYP2C19 substrate: 20 mg), and metoprolol (CYP2D6 substrate: 100 mg) with fedratinib increased midazolam, omeprazole, or metoprolol AUCinf by 4-, 3-, and 2-fold, respectively [see Drug Interactions (7.2)]. In Vitro and Clinical Transporter Studies. Fedratinib as Substrate for Transporters:Fedratinib is substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) but not breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), BSEP, multidrug resistance protein (MRP2), and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1 and OATP1B3 in vitro. Effect of Fedratinib on Transporter SubstratesFedratinib inhibits P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, and MATE2-K, but not BSEP, MRP2, and organic anion transporter (OAT)1 and OAT3 in vitro.Coadministration of single dose of fedratinib (600 mg; 1.5 times the recommended dose) with single dose of digoxin (P-gp substrate: 0.25 mg), rosuvastatin (OATP1B1/1B3 and BCRP substrate: 10 mg), and metformin (OCT2 and MATE1/2-K substrate: 1000 mg) had no clinically meaningful effect on the AUCinf of digoxin, rosuvastatin, and metformin. Renal clearance of metformin was decreased by 36% in the presence of fedratinib [see Drug Interactions (7.2)]. Contrary to unchanged PK, the glucose lowering PD effect of metformin in the presence of fedratinib appears reduced, with baseline adjusted glucose AUC being approximately 50% higher in response to an oral glucose challenge.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.


14 CLINICAL STUDIES. JAKARTAJAKARTA (NCT01437787) was double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk myelofibrosis, post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis with splenomegaly. total of 289 patients were randomized to receive either INREBIC 500 mg (N=97), 400 mg (n=96) or placebo (n=96) once daily for at least cycles. The median age was 65 years (range 27 to 86 years), 47% of patients were older than 65 years and 59% were male. Sixty-four percent (64%) of patients had primary MF, 26% had post-polycythemia vera MF, and 10% had post-essential thrombocythemia MF. Fifty-two percent (52%) of patients had intermediate-2 risk, and 48% had high-risk disease. The median baseline hemoglobin level was 10.2 g/dL. The median baseline platelet count was 214 109/L; 16% of patients had platelet count <100 109/L and 84% of patients had platelet count >=100 109/L. Patients had baseline median palpable spleen length of 15 cm. Patients had baseline median spleen volume as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) of 2568 mL (range of 316 to 8244 mL) (the upper limit of normal is approximately 300 mL). Patients underwent MRI or CT spleen volume assessment (after the third and sixth cycle) with follow-up scan weeks after Cycle 6.The efficacy of INREBIC in the treatment of patients with primary or secondary myelofibrosis was established based upon the proportion of patients achieving greater than or equal to 35% reduction from baseline in spleen volume at the End of Cycle as measured by MRI or CT with follow-up scan weeks later.Efficacy analyses are presented in Table 5.

The modified MFSAF diary was completed daily during the week prior to Day of each treatment cycle, and at the End of Cycle 6. Symptom scores ranged from (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable). These scores were added to create the Total Symptom Score, which has maximum score of 60. At baseline, the mean Total Symptom Score was 17.95 in the 400 mg group and 15.45 in the placebo group.The proportion of patients with 50% or greater reduction in Total Symptom Score was 40% in the INREBIC 400 mg group and 9% in the placebo group (Table 6). Results are excluded for 22 patients: patients with baseline Total Symptom Score of zero (2 in the INREBIC 400 mg group and in the placebo group) and 16 patients with missing baseline (5 in the INREBIC 400 mg group and 11 in the placebo group).Table 6: Improvement in Total Symptom Score in Patients with Myelofibrosis in the Phase Study, JAKARTAINREBIC 400 mg(N=89) (%)Placebo(N=81) (%)Number (%) of Patients with 50% or Greater Reduction in Total Symptom Score at the End of Cycle 636 (40)7 (9)p-valuep<0.0001Figure shows the percent change in Total Symptom Score from baseline at the End of Cycle for each patient.Figure 2: Percent Change from Baseline in Total Symptom Score at the End of Cycle for Each Patient in the Phase Study, JAKARTAN: Subjects with available percent change in Total Symptom Score at EOC6.Figure displays the proportion of patients with at least 50% improvement in each of the individual symptoms that comprised the Total Symptom Score indicating that all of the symptoms contributed to the higher Total Symptom Score response rate in the group treated with INREBIC.Figure 3: Proportion of Patients Achieving 50% or Greater Reduction in Individual Symptom Scores at the End of Cycle with Nonzero Baseline Scores. jakarta spleen volume. jakarta-symptom-score-improve. jakarta-50p-greater-reduction.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS. oStrong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Reduce INREBIC dose as recommended (2.3, 7.1).oStrong and Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers: Avoid use of INREBIC (7.1).oDual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 Inhibitor: Avoid use of INREBIC (7.1).oCYP3A4, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 Substrates: Dose modifications of substrates drugs may be needed (7.2).oOCT2 and MATE1/2-K Substrates: Dose modifications of substrate drugs may be needed (7.2).. oStrong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Reduce INREBIC dose as recommended (2.3, 7.1).. oStrong and Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers: Avoid use of INREBIC (7.1).. oDual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 Inhibitor: Avoid use of INREBIC (7.1).. oCYP3A4, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 Substrates: Dose modifications of substrates drugs may be needed (7.2).. oOCT2 and MATE1/2-K Substrates: Dose modifications of substrate drugs may be needed (7.2).. 7.1Effect of Other Drugs on INREBIC. Strong CYP3A4 InhibitorsCoadministration of INREBIC with strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increases fedratinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Increased exposure may increase the risk of adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5), and Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Consider alternative therapies that do not strongly inhibit CYP3A4 activity. Alternatively, reduce the dose of INREBIC when administering with strong CYP3A4 inhibitor [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].. Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 InducersCoadministration of INREBIC with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer can decrease fedratinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Decreased exposure may reduce the effectiveness of INREBIC. Avoid INREBIC with strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers.. Dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 InhibitorsAvoid INREBIC with dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitor. The effect of concomitant administration of dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitor with INREBIC has not been studied [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].. 7.2 Effect of INREBIC on Other Drugs. CYP3A4, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 Substrate DrugsCoadministration of INREBIC with drugs that are CYP3A4 substrates, CYP2C19 substrates, or CYP2D6 substrates increases the concentrations of these drugs, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions of these drugs [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Monitor for adverse reactions and adjust the dose of drugs that are CYP3A4, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 substrates as necessary when coadministered with INREBIC.OCT2 and MATE1/2-K Substrate DrugsCoadministration of INREBIC with drugs that are renally excreted via organic cation transporter (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE)1/2-K can decrease renal clearance of those drugs [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Monitor for adverse reactions and consider dose modifications for drugs that are renally excreted via OCT2 or MATE1/2-K (e.g., metformin), as necessary when coadministered with INREBIC.

LACTATION SECTION.


8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of fedratinib or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed child, advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment with INREBIC, and for at least month after the last dose.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.


12.1 Mechanism of Action. Fedratinib is an oral kinase inhibitor with activity against wild type and mutationally activated Janus Associated Kinase (JAK2) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3). Fedratinib is JAK2-selective inhibitor with higher inhibitory activity for JAK2 over family members JAK1, JAK3 and TYK2. Abnormal activation of JAK2 is associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), including myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera. In cell models expressing mutationally active JAK2V617F or FLT3ITD, fedratinib reduced phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT3/5) proteins, inhibited cell proliferation, and induced apoptotic cell death. In mouse models of JAK2V617F-driven myeloproliferative disease, fedratinib blocked phosphorylation of STAT3/5, and improved survival, white blood cell counts, hematocrit, splenomegaly, and fibrosis.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.


13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Fedratinib was not carcinogenic in the 6-month Tg.rasH2 transgenic mouse model.Fedratinib was not mutagenic in bacterial mutagenicity assay (Ames test) or clastogenic in in vitro chromosomal aberration assay (Chinese hamster ovary cells) or in vivo in micronucleus test in rats.In fertility study in rats, fedratinib was administered for at least 70 days (males) and 14 days (females) prior to cohabitation and up to the implantation day (gestation day 7). Fedratinib had no effect on the estrous cycle parameters, mating performance, fertility, pregnancy rate or reproductive parameters in male or female rats at doses up to 30 mg/kg. The exposure (AUC) at the dose of 30 mg/kg/day is approximately 0.10 to 0.13 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose.. 13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology. The JAK/STAT pathway has been implicated in bone formation and metabolism, and its inhibition may cause bone abnormalities, e.g. in developing bone. There is currently no evidence of bone abnormalities in patients who received INREBIC.

PEDIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.4 Pediatric Use. The safety and effectiveness of INREBIC in pediatric patients have not been established.

PHARMACODYNAMICS SECTION.


12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Fedratinib inhibited cytokine-induced STAT3 phosphorylation in whole blood from patients with myelofibrosis. The inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation was maximal approximately hours after the first dose, with values returning to near baseline at 24 hours. After daily administration of fedratinib, levels of inhibition at steady state PK were similar to the maximal inhibition reached after the first dose of 300 (0.75 times the recommended dose), 400 or 500 mg (1.25 times the recommended dose) of fedratinib.. Cardiac ElectrophysiologyThe potential for QTc prolongation with fedratinib was evaluated in 31 patients with solid tumors. No large mean increase in the QTc interval (>20 ms) was detected with daily dosing of fedratinib 500 mg (1.25 times the recommended dose) for 14 days.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.


12.3 Pharmacokinetics. INREBIC at 300 mg to 500 mg once daily (0.75 to 1.25 times the recommended dose) results in dose proportional increase in geometric mean fedratinib peak concentrations (Cmax) and the area under the plasma concentration time curve over the dosing interval (AUCtau). The mean steady state levels are achieved within 15 days of daily dosing. The mean accumulation ratio ranged between 3- to 4-fold.At the dose of 400 mg once daily, the geometric mean (coefficient of variation, %CV) fedratinib Cmax is 1804 ng/mL (49%) and AUCtau is 26870 ng.hr/mL (43%) in patients with myelofibrosis.. AbsorptionFollowing 400 mg once daily, fedratinib median time to peak concentrations (Tmax) at steady-state is hours (range: to hours).. Effect of FoodA low-fat, low-calorie (total 162 calories: 6% from fat, 78% from carbohydrate and 16% from protein) or high-fat, high-calorie (total 815 calories: 52% from fat, 33% from carbohydrate and 15% from protein) meal increased area under the curve over time to infinity (AUCinf) up to 24% and Cmax up to 14% of single 500 mg dose (1.25 times the recommended dose) of fedratinib.. DistributionThe apparent volume of distribution of fedratinib at steady-state is 1770 in patients with myelofibrosis at 400 mg once daily dose. Fedratinib is 92% or greater bound to human plasma proteins.. EliminationFedratinib pharmacokinetics is characterized by biphasic disposition with an effective half-life of 41 hours, terminal half-life of approximately 114 hours, and apparent clearance (CL/F) (%CV) of 13 L/hr (51%) in patients with myelofibrosis.. MetabolismFedratinib is metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2C19, and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO3). Fedratinib accounts for approximately 80% of total circulating drug in plasma after oral administration.. ExcretionFollowing single oral dose of radiolabeled fedratinib, 77% (23% unchanged) of the administered dose was excreted in feces and 5% (3% unchanged) was eliminated in urine.. Specific PopulationsAge (20 years to 95 years), race (White, Asians), sex, body weight (40 kg to 135 kg), mild [total bilirubin <=upper limit of normal (ULN) and AST >ULN or total bilirubin to 1.5 times ULN and any AST] or moderate (total bilirubin >1.5 to times ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment, and mild (CLcr 60 mL/min to 89 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment did not have clinically meaningful effects on the pharmacokinetics of fedratinib.The effect of severe (total bilirubin >3 times ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment on fedratinib pharmacokinetics is unknown.. Patients with Renal ImpairmentFollowing single 300 mg dose (0.75 times the recommended dose) of INREBIC, the AUCinf of fedratinib increased by 1.5-fold in subjects with moderate (CLcr 30 mL/min to 59 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment and 1.9-fold in subjects with severe (CLcr 15 mL/min to 29 mL/min by C-G) renal impairment, compared to that in subjects with normal renal function (CLcr >=90 mL/min by C-G) [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Renal Impairment (8.6)].. Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches. Effect of Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 InhibitorsCoadministration of ketoconazole (strong CYP3A4 inhibitor: 200 mg twice daily) with single dose of INREBIC (300 mg; 0.75 times the recommended dose) increased fedratinib AUCinf by 3-fold [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Drug Interactions (7.1)]. Based on modeling and simulation, coadministration of strong CYP3A4 inhibitor such as ketoconazole (400 mg once daily) with INREBIC 400 mg once daily is predicted to increase fedratinib AUC at steady state by 2-fold [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Drug Interactions (7.1)].Based on modeling and simulation, coadministration of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors, erythromycin (500 mg three times daily) or diltiazem (120 mg twice daily), with INREBIC 400 mg once daily is predicted to increase fedratinib AUC at steady state by 1.2-, and 1.1-fold, respectively.. Effect of Dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 InhibitorThe effect of concomitant administration with dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitor on fedratinib pharmacokinetics is not known [see Drug Interactions (7.1)] Effect of Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 InducersCoadministration of rifampin (strong CYP3A4 inducer: 600 mg once daily) or efavirenz (moderate CYP3A4 inducer: 600 mg once daily) with single dose of fedratinib (500 mg; 1.25 times the recommended dose) decreased AUCinf of fedratinib by approximately 81% or 47%, respectively [see Drug Interactions (7.1)]. Effect of Gastric Acid Reducing AgentsCoadministration of pantoprazole (proton pump inhibitor: 40 mg once daily) with single dose of INREBIC (500 mg; 1.25 times the recommended dose) increased fedratinib AUCinf by 1.2-fold.. Effect of Fedratinib on Drugs that are CYP3A, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 SubstratesCoadministration of single dose of midazolam (CYP3A substrate: mg), omeprazole (CYP2C19 substrate: 20 mg), and metoprolol (CYP2D6 substrate: 100 mg) with fedratinib increased midazolam, omeprazole, or metoprolol AUCinf by 4-, 3-, and 2-fold, respectively [see Drug Interactions (7.2)]. In Vitro and Clinical Transporter Studies. Fedratinib as Substrate for Transporters:Fedratinib is substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) but not breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), BSEP, multidrug resistance protein (MRP2), and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1 and OATP1B3 in vitro. Effect of Fedratinib on Transporter SubstratesFedratinib inhibits P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, and MATE2-K, but not BSEP, MRP2, and organic anion transporter (OAT)1 and OAT3 in vitro.Coadministration of single dose of fedratinib (600 mg; 1.5 times the recommended dose) with single dose of digoxin (P-gp substrate: 0.25 mg), rosuvastatin (OATP1B1/1B3 and BCRP substrate: 10 mg), and metformin (OCT2 and MATE1/2-K substrate: 1000 mg) had no clinically meaningful effect on the AUCinf of digoxin, rosuvastatin, and metformin. Renal clearance of metformin was decreased by 36% in the presence of fedratinib [see Drug Interactions (7.2)]. Contrary to unchanged PK, the glucose lowering PD effect of metformin in the presence of fedratinib appears reduced, with baseline adjusted glucose AUC being approximately 50% higher in response to an oral glucose challenge.

PREGNANCY SECTION.


8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no available data on INREBIC use in pregnant women to evaluate for drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of fedratinib to pregnant rats during organogenesis at doses considerably lower than the recommended human daily dose of 400 mg/day resulted in adverse developmental outcomes (see Data). Consider the benefits and risks of INREBIC for the mother and possible risks to the fetus when prescribing INREBIC to pregnant woman.The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. 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. Animal DataIn an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats, fedratinib administration at dose of 30 mg/kg/day during organogenesis (gestation days to 17) was associated with adverse developmental outcomes including skeletal variations (such as additional ossification center of neuronal arches). These effects occurred in rats at approximately 0.1 times the clinical exposure based on AUC at the recommended daily dose. At lower doses of 10 mg/kg/day (0.01 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose), fedratinib administered to pregnant rats resulted in maternal toxicity of decreased gestational weight gain.In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rabbits, fedratinib administration during organogenesis (gestation Days to 18) did not produce developmental or maternal toxicity at doses up to the highest dose level tested, 30 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.08 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose). In separate study, administration of 80 mg/kg/day fedratinib to rabbits resulted in maternal mortality.In pre- and postnatal study in rats, fedratinib was administered to pregnant female rats at doses of 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg/day from Day of gestation through Day 20 of lactation, with weaning on Day 21. slight decrease in maternal body weight gain during gestation occurred at 30 mg/kg/day. The offspring from the high dose (30 mg/kg) had decreased body weight preweaning in both sexes and postweaning through the maturation phase in males. These effects occurred at exposures approximately 0.1 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose.

8.6Renal Impairment. Reduce INREBIC dose when administered to patients with severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 mL/min to 29 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault) [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. No modification of the starting dose is recommended for patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 mL/min to 89 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault). Due to potential increase of exposure, patients with preexisting moderate renal impairment require more intensive safety monitoring, and if necessary, dose modifications based on adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration (2.5].

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS. oLactation: Advise not to breastfeed (8.2).oSevere Hepatic Impairment: Avoid use of INREBIC (8.7).. oLactation: Advise not to breastfeed (8.2).. oSevere Hepatic Impairment: Avoid use of INREBIC (8.7).. 8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no available data on INREBIC use in pregnant women to evaluate for drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of fedratinib to pregnant rats during organogenesis at doses considerably lower than the recommended human daily dose of 400 mg/day resulted in adverse developmental outcomes (see Data). Consider the benefits and risks of INREBIC for the mother and possible risks to the fetus when prescribing INREBIC to pregnant woman.The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. 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. Animal DataIn an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats, fedratinib administration at dose of 30 mg/kg/day during organogenesis (gestation days to 17) was associated with adverse developmental outcomes including skeletal variations (such as additional ossification center of neuronal arches). These effects occurred in rats at approximately 0.1 times the clinical exposure based on AUC at the recommended daily dose. At lower doses of 10 mg/kg/day (0.01 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose), fedratinib administered to pregnant rats resulted in maternal toxicity of decreased gestational weight gain.In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rabbits, fedratinib administration during organogenesis (gestation Days to 18) did not produce developmental or maternal toxicity at doses up to the highest dose level tested, 30 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.08 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose). In separate study, administration of 80 mg/kg/day fedratinib to rabbits resulted in maternal mortality.In pre- and postnatal study in rats, fedratinib was administered to pregnant female rats at doses of 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg/day from Day of gestation through Day 20 of lactation, with weaning on Day 21. slight decrease in maternal body weight gain during gestation occurred at 30 mg/kg/day. The offspring from the high dose (30 mg/kg) had decreased body weight preweaning in both sexes and postweaning through the maturation phase in males. These effects occurred at exposures approximately 0.1 times the clinical exposure at the recommended daily dose.. 8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of fedratinib or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed child, advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment with INREBIC, and for at least month after the last dose.. 8.4 Pediatric Use. The safety and effectiveness of INREBIC in pediatric patients have not been established.. 8.5 Geriatric Use. Of the total number of patients with myelofibrosis who received an INREBIC dose of 400 mg in the clinical studies, 47.3% were greater than 65 years of age and 12.3% were greater than 75 years of age. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness of INREBIC were observed between these patients and younger patients.. 8.6Renal Impairment. Reduce INREBIC dose when administered to patients with severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 mL/min to 29 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault) [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. No modification of the starting dose is recommended for patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 mL/min to 89 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault). Due to potential increase of exposure, patients with preexisting moderate renal impairment require more intensive safety monitoring, and if necessary, dose modifications based on adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration (2.5]. 8.7Hepatic Impairment. INREBIC pharmacokinetics has not been evaluated in patients with severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin 3 times ULN and any AST). Avoid use of INREBIC in patients with severe hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

Serious and fatal encephalopathy, including Wernickes encephalopathy, has occurred in INREBIC-treated patients. Serious cases were reported in 1.3% (8/608) of patients treated with INREBIC in clinical trials and 0.16% (1/608) of cases were fatal.Wernickes encephalopathy is neurologic emergency resulting from thiamine (Vitamin B1) deficiency. Signs and symptoms of Wernickes encephalopathy may include ataxia, mental status changes, and ophthalmoplegia (e.g., nystagmus, diplopia). Any change in mental status, confusion, or memory impairment should raise concern for potential encephalopathy, including Wernickes, and prompt full evaluation including neurologic examination, assessment of thiamine levels, and imaging. Assess thiamine levels in all patients prior to starting INREBIC, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. Do not start INREBIC in patients with thiamine deficiency; replete thiamine prior to treatment initiation. If encephalopathy is suspected, immediately discontinue INREBIC and initiate parenteral thiamine. Monitor until symptoms resolve or improve and thiamine levels normalize [see Dosage and Administration (2.6) and Clinical Trials Experience (6.1)].. 5.2Anemia and Thrombocytopenia. Treatment with INREBIC can cause anemia and thrombocytopenia.. AnemiaNew or worsening Grade anemia occurred in 34% of INREBIC-treated patients. The median time to onset of the first Grade anemia was approximately months, with 75% of cases occurring within months. Mean hemoglobin levels reached nadir after 12 to 16 weeks with partial recovery and stabilization after 16 weeks. Red blood cell transfusions were received by 51% of INREBIC-treated patients and permanent discontinuation of INREBIC occurred due to anemia in 1% of patients. Consider dose reduction for patients who become red blood cell transfusion dependent [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].. ThrombocytopeniaNew or worsening Grade >=3 thrombocytopenia during the randomized treatment period occurred in 12% of INREBIC-treated patients. The median time to onset of the first Grade thrombocytopenia was approximately month; with 75% of cases occurring within months. Platelet transfusions were received by 3.1% of INREBIC-treated patients. Permanent discontinuation of treatment due to thrombocytopenia and bleeding that required clinical intervention both occurred in 2.1% of INREBIC-treated patients. Obtain complete blood count (CBC) at baseline, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. For Grade thrombocytopenia with active bleeding or Grade thrombocytopenia, interrupt INREBIC until resolved to less than or equal to Grade or baseline. Restart dose at 100 mg daily below the last given dose and monitor platelets as clinically indicated [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. 5.3Gastrointestinal Toxicity. Gastrointestinal toxicities are the most frequent adverse reactions in INREBIC-treated patients. During the randomized treatment period, diarrhea occurred in 66% of patients, nausea in 62% of patients, and vomiting in 39% of patients. Grade diarrhea and vomiting occurred in 5% and 3.1% of patients, respectively. The median time to onset of any grade nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea was day, with 75% of cases occurring within weeks of treatment.Consider providing appropriate prophylactic antiemetic therapy (e.g., 5-HT3 receptor antagonists) during INREBIC treatment. Treat diarrhea with antidiarrheal medications promptly at the first onset of symptoms. For Grade or higher nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea not responsive to supportive measures within 48 hours, interrupt INREBIC until resolved to Grade or less or baseline. Restart dose at 100 mg daily below the last given dose [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. Monitor thiamine levels and replete as needed.. 5.4Hepatic Toxicity. Elevations of ALT and AST (all grades) during the randomized treatment period occurred in 43% and 40%, respectively, with Grade or in 1% and 0%, respectively, of INREBIC-treated patients. The median time to onset of any grade transaminase elevation was approximately month, with 75% of cases occurring within months.Monitor hepatic function at baseline, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. For Grade or higher ALT and/or AST elevations (greater than x ULN), interrupt INREBIC dose until resolved to Grade or less or to baseline. Restart dose at 100 mg daily below the last given dose. If reoccurrence of Grade or higher elevation of ALT/AST, discontinue treatment with INREBIC [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. 5.5Amylase and Lipase Elevation. Grade or higher amylase and/or lipase elevations developed in 2% and 10%, respectively, of INREBIC-treated patients. The median time to onset of any grade amylase or lipase elevation was 15 days, with 75% of cases occurring within month of starting treatment. One patient developed pancreatitis in the fedratinib clinical development program (n=608) and pancreatitis resolved with treatment discontinuation.Monitor amylase and lipase at baseline, periodically during treatment, and as clinically indicated. For Grade or higher amylase and/or lipase elevations, interrupt INREBIC until resolved to Grade or less or to baseline. Restart dose at 100 mg daily below the last given dose [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. 5.6Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) Another Janus Kinase (JAK)-inhibitor has increased the risk of MACE, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke (compared to those treated with TNF blockers) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, condition for which INREBIC is not indicated.Consider the benefits and risks for the individual patient prior to initiating or continuing therapy with INREBIC, particularly in patients who are current or past smokers and patients with other cardiovascular risk factors. Patients should be informed about the symptoms of serious cardiovascular events and the steps to take if they occur.. 5.7Thrombosis Another JAK-inhibitor has increased the risk of thrombosis, including deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and arterial thrombosis (compared to those treated with TNF blockers) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, condition for which INREBIC is not indicated. In patients with MF treated with INREBIC in clinical trials, the rates of thromboembolic events were similar in INREBIC and placebo treated patients.Patients with symptoms of thrombosis should be promptly evaluated and treated appropriately.. 5.8Secondary Malignancies Another JAK-inhibitor has increased the risk of lymphoma and other malignancies excluding nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) (compared to those treated with TNF blockers) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, condition for which INREBIC is not indicated. Patients who are current or past smokers are at additional increased risk.Consider the benefits and risks for the individual patient prior to initiating or continuing therapy with INREBIC, particularly in patients with known malignancy (other than successfully treated NMSC), patients who develop malignancy, and patients who are current or past smokers.
