药品简介
欧盟批准Fotivda(Tivozanib,VEGFR-TKI,盐酸替沃扎)胶囊口服药,为新一代晚期肾细胞癌新药
2017年8月28日,欧盟委员会批准EUSA制药公司的tivozanib(Fotivda)用于晚期肾细胞癌(RCC)成年患者的一线治疗,以及先前接受过细胞因子一线治疗后疾病仍进展且未使用血管内皮生长因子受体(VEGFR)和哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白通路抑制剂治疗的晚期RCC患者。本品为一种口服的、一日1次的强效和高选择性血管内皮生长因子受体-酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(VEGFR-TKI)。
作用机理
Tivozanib有效和选择性地阻断所有3种血管内皮生长因子受体(VEGFR),并已显示在体外阻断各种VEGF诱导的生化和生物学反应,包括VEGF配体诱导的所有3种VEGFR 1、2和3的磷酸化,以及人内皮细胞的增殖。第二个最受抑制的激酶是c-kit,与VEGFR 1、2和3相比,对Tivozanib抑制的敏感性低8倍。VEGF是一种有效的促有丝分裂因子,在肿瘤组织的血管生成和血管通透性中起着核心作用。通过阻断VEGF诱导的VEGFR激活,替沃扎尼抑制了肿瘤组织中的血管生成和血管通透性,从而导致体内肿瘤的生长受到抑制。
适应症
Fotivda适用于成年晚期肾细胞癌(RCC)成人患者的一线治疗,以及先前用细胞因子治疗晚期RCC的疾病进展后未接受过VEGFR和mTOR途径抑制剂的成年患者。
管理方法
Fotivda应该由具有抗癌治疗经验的医生进行监督。
用法与用量
Tivozanib的推荐剂量为每天1340微克,连续21天,然后是7天的休息时间,包括一个完整的4周治疗周期。
该治疗方案应继续进行,直到疾病进展或出现不可接受的毒性。
每天最多只能服用一剂Fotivda。
剂量修改
不良反应的发生可能需要暂时停用和/或降低替沃扎尼治疗的剂量。在关键性研究中,对于3级事件降低了剂量,对于4级事件中断了剂量。
当需要减少剂量时,可将tivozanib的剂量每天减少一次至890微克,常规治疗方案为给药21天,然后休息7天。
错过的剂量
在错过剂量的情况下,一定不能服用替代剂量来弥补被遗忘的剂量。下一个剂量应该在下一个预定的时间服用。
如果呕吐,则不应服用替代剂量;下一个剂量应在下一个预定时间服用。
特殊人群
小儿人口
尚未确定替沃扎尼在18岁以下儿童和青少年中的安全性和有效性。无可用数据。在指示性晚期肾细胞癌的患儿中,替沃扎尼没有相关用途。
老年患者
65岁或以上的患者无需调整剂量。
肾功能不全的患者
轻度或中度肾功能不全的患者无需调整剂量。建议由于经验有限而患有严重肾功能不全的患者和正在接受透析的患者,因为在该患者人群中没有替沃扎尼的经验,因此应谨慎。
肝功能不全患者
所有患者均应接受肝功能检查评估,包括转氨酶(ALT),天冬氨酸转氨酶(AST),胆红素和碱性磷酸酶(AP),以在开始和使用替沃扎尼治疗期间确定肝功能。
严重肝功能不全的患者不建议使用Tivozanib。患有中度肝功能不全的患者应每隔一天服用1个tivozanib 1340微克胶囊,因为每天增加1340微克的剂量会增加他们的不良反应风险。对轻度肝功能不全的患者服用替沃扎尼时,无需调整剂量。在轻度和中度肝功能不全的患者中应谨慎使用Tivozanib,并密切监测耐受性。
给药方法
Fotivda用于口服。
Fotivda可以带或不带食物一起服用。胶囊必须用一杯水完全吞下,并且不得打开。

5.1 Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis
FOTIVDA can cause severe hypertension and hypertensive crisis. Hypertension occurred in 45% of patients treated with FOTIVDA, with 22% of the events > Grade 3. Median time to onset of hypertension was 2 weeks (range: 0 – 192 weeks).
Hypertensive crisis occurred in 0.8% of patients.One patient (0.1%) died due to hypertensive emergency after FOTIVDA overdose [see OVERDOSAGE (10)].
FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients with systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 100 mmHg.
Control blood pressure prior to treatment with FOTIVDA. Monitor blood pressure after 2 weeks and at least monthly thereafter during treatment with FOTIVDA. Treat patients with anti- hypertensive therapy when hypertension occurs during treatment with FOTIVDA.
Withhold FOTIVDA for severe hypertension despite optimal anti-hypertensive therapy. For persistent hypertension despite use of anti-hypertensive medications, reduce the FOTIVDA dose [seeDOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
Discontinue FOTIVDA if hypertension is severe and persistent despite anti-hypertensive therapy and dose reduction of FOTIVDA, or in patients who experience hypertensive crisis.
If FOTIVDA is interrupted, monitor patients receiving anti-hypertensive medications for hypotension.
FOTIVDA can cause serious, sometimes fatal, cardiac failure. Cardiac failure in FOTIVDA- treated patients occurred in 1.6%, with 1% of events ≥ Grade 3, and 0.6% events were fatal.
FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients with symptomatic cardiac failure within the preceding 6 months before FOTIVDA treatment initiation.
Periodically monitor patients for symptoms of cardiac failure throughout treatment with FOTIVDA.
Management of cardiac failure events may require interruption, dose reduction, or permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA therapy[see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
Page 4
FOTIVDA can cause serious, sometimes fatal, cardiac ischemia and arterial thromboembolic events. Cardiac ischemia in FOTIVDA-treated patients occurred in 3.2%, with 1.5% of events > Grade 3, and 0.4% events were fatal. Arterial thromboembolic events were reported in 2% of FOTIVDA-treated patients, including death due to ischemic stroke (0.1%).
FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients who had an arterial thrombotic event, myocardial infarction, or unstable angina within the preceding 6 months before FOTIVDA treatment initiation.
Closely monitor patients who are at risk for, or who have a history of these events (such as myocardial infarction and stroke), during treatment with FOTIVDA.
Discontinue FOTIVDA in patients who develop any severe or life-threatening arterial thromboembolic event[see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
FOTIVDA can cause serious, sometimes fatal, venous thromboembolic events. Venous thromboembolic events occurred in 2.4% of patients treated with FOTIVDA, including death (0.3%).
Closely monitor patients who are at risk for, or who have a history of these events during treatment with FOTIVDA.
Discontinue FOTIVDA in patients who develop any severe or life-threatening venous thromboembolic event[see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
FOTIVDA can cause serious, sometimes fatal, hemorrhagic events. Hemorrhagic events occurred in 11% of patients treated with FOTIVDA, including death (0.2%).
FOTIVDA has not been studied in patients with significant bleeding within the preceding 6 months before FOTIVDA treatment initiation.
Closely monitor patients who are at risk for or who have a history of bleeding during treatment with FOTIVDA.
Discontinue FOTIVDA in patients who develop severe or life-threatening hemorrhagic events
[seeDOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
FOTIVDA can cause proteinuria. Proteinuria occurred in 8% of FOTIVDA-treated patients with 2% of events Grade 3. Of the patients who developed proteinuria, 3/81 (3.7%) had acute kidney injury either concurrently or later during treatment.
Monitor patients for proteinuria before initiation of, and periodically throughout, treatment with FOTIVDA.
For patients who develop moderate to severe proteinuria, reduce the dose or interrupt FOTIVDA treatment.
Discontinue FOTIVDA in patients who develop nephrotic syndrome[see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
Page 5
FOTIVDA can cause thyroid dysfunction. Thyroid dysfunction events in FOTIVDA-treated patients occurred in 11%, with 0.3% Grade 3 or 4 events. Hypothyroidism was reported in 8% of patients and hyperthyroidism was reported in 1% of patients.
Monitor thyroid function before initiation of, and periodically throughout, treatment with FOTIVDA.
Treat hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism to maintain euthyroid state before and during treatment with FOTIVDA.
Impaired wound healing can occur in patients who receive drugs that inhibit the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway, such as FOTIVDA. Therefore, FOTIVDA has the potential to adversely affect wound healing.
Withhold FOTIVDA for at least 24 days prior to elective surgery. Do not administer for at least 2 weeks following major surgery and until adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of FOTIVDA after resolution of wound healing complications has not been established.
Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS), a syndrome of subcortical vasogenic edema diagnosed by MRI, can occur with FOTIVDA. Perform an evaluation for RPLS in any patient presenting with seizures, headaches, visual disturbances, confusion, or altered mental function.
Discontinue FOTIVDA in patients who develop RPLS[see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.2)].
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, FOTIVDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In embryo-fetal developmental studies, oral administration of tivozanib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis caused maternal toxicity, fetal malformations and embryo-fetal death at doses below the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis.
Advise pregnant woman of the potential risk to the fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with FOTIVDA and for one month after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with FOTIVDA and for one month after the last dose [see USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS (8.1, 8.3) and CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.1)].
FOTIVDA 0.89 mg capsule contains FD&C Yellow No.5 (tartrazine) as an imprint ink which may cause allergic-type reactions (including bronchial asthma) in certain susceptible patients. Although the overall incidence of FD&C Yellow No.5 (tartrazine) sensitivity in the general population is low, it is frequently seen in patients who also have aspirin hypersensitivity.

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are also described elsewhere in the labeling:
• Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1)]
• Cardiac Failure[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.2)]
• Cardiac Ischemia and Arterial Thromboembolic Events[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.3)]
• Venous Thromboembolic Events[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.4)]
• Hemorrhagic Events[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.5)]
• Proteinuria[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.6)]
• Thyroid Dysfunction[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.7)]
• Risk of Impaired Wound Healing[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.8)]
• Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS)[seeWARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.9)]
Because clinical studies are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in clinical studies of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical studies of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The pooled safety population described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to FOTIVDA administered at 1.34 mg orally once daily with or without food for 21 days on treatment followed by 7 days off treatment for a 28-day cycle in 1008 patients with advanced RCC in TIVO-3 and five other monotherapy studies. Among 1008 patients who received FOTIVDA, 52% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 34% were exposed for greater than one year.
Relapsed or Refractory Advanced RCC Following Two or More Prior Systemic Therapies
The safety of FOTIVDA was evaluated in TIVO-3, a randomized, open-label trial in 350 patients with relapsed or refractory advanced RCC who received 2 or 3 prior systemic treatments [see CLINICAL STUDIES (14)]. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive FOTIVDA 1.34 mg orally once daily for 21 days on treatment followed by 7 days off treatment for a 28-day cycle, or to receive sorafenib 400 mg orally twice a day continuously until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Among patients who received FOTIVDA, 53% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 31% were exposed for greater than one year.
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 45% of patients who received FOTIVDA. Serious adverse reactions in > 2% of patients included bleeding (3.5%), venous thromboembolism (3.5%), arterial thromboembolism (2.9%), acute kidney injury (2.3%), and hepatobiliary disorders (2.3%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 8% of patients who received FOTIVDA, including pneumonia (1.7%), hepatobiliary disorders (1.2%), respiratory failure (1.2%), myocardial
infarction (0.6%), cerebrovascular accident (0.6%), and subdural hematoma (0.6%).
Page 7
Permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 21% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of FOTIVDA in > 2 patients included hepatobiliary disorders, fatigue, and pneumonia.
Dosage interruptions of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 48% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in > 5% of patients included fatigue, hypertension, decreased appetite, and nausea.
Dose reductions of FOTIVDA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 24% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in > 3% of patients included fatigue, diarrhea, and decreased appetite.
The most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions were fatigue, hypertension, diarrhea, decreased appetite, nausea, dysphonia, hypothyroidism, cough, and stomatitis, and the most common Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥ 5%) were sodium decreased, lipase increased, and phosphate decreased.

7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on FOTIVDA
Concomitant use of FOTIVDA with a strong CYP3A inducer decreases tivozanib exposure [see
Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)],which may reduce FOTIVDA anti-tumor activity. Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inducers with FOTIVDA.
Page 10
Risk Summary
Based on findings in animal studies and its mechanism of action, FOTIVDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY (12.1)]. There are no available data on FOTIVDA use in pregnant woman to inform the drug-associated risk. In embryo-fetal developmental studies, oral administration of tivozanib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis caused maternal toxicity, fetal malformations and embryo- fetal death at doses below the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis(seeData). Advise pregnant woman of the potential risk to a fetus.
The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. 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 data
In an embryo-fetal developmental study in pregnant rats, daily oral administration of tivozanib at doses ≥ 0.03 mg/kg/day (0.2 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis) during the period of organogenesis resulted in maternal toxicity, increases in early and late resorptions, and an increase in fetal external malformations (body edema, short/kinked tail), and skeletal developmental delays.
In an embryo-fetal developmental study in pregnant rabbits, daily oral administration of tivozanib at 1 mg/kg/day (14.5 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis) during the period of organogenesis resulted in fetal malformations including ventricular septal defects and major vessel anomalies. No maternal toxicity was reported at doses up to 1 mg/kg/day.
8.2 Lactation
Risk Summary
There are no data on the presence of tivozanib in human milk, or the effects of tivozanib on the breastfed child, or on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise a lactating woman not to breastfeed during treatment with FOTIVDA and for one month after the last dose.
FOTIVDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman[see USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS (8.1)].
Pregnancy Testing
Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to starting treatment with FOTIVDA.
Page 11
Females
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with FOTIVDA and for one month after the last dose[see USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS (8.1)].
Males
Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with FOTIVDA and for one month after the last dose [see NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY (13.1)].
Infertility
Females and Males
Based on findings in animal studies, FOTIVDA can impair fertility in females and males of reproductive potential[see NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY (13.1)].
The safety and effectiveness of FOTIVDA in pediatric patients have not been established.
Animal Data
Juvenile animal studies have not been conducted with tivozanib.
In a 13-week repeat-dose study, oral administration of tivozanib to young and growing cynomolgus monkeys resulted in growth plate hypertrophy, absence of active corpora lutea, and no maturing follicles at doses ≥ 0.3 mg/kg/day (4.4 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis). In a 13-week repeat-dose study in rats, teeth abnormalities (thin, brittle teeth, tooth loss, malocclusions) and growth plate hypertrophy were observed following oral administration of tivozanib at doses ≥ 0.1 mg/kg/day (0.7 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis).
8.5 Geriatric Use
Of the 1008 patients with advanced RCC treated with FOTIVDA, 29% were ≥ 65 years of age and 4% were ≥ 75 of age. No overall differences in safety were observed between patients ≥ 65 versus < 65 years of age.
Of the 175 patients with advanced RCC following two or more prior systemic therapies randomized to FOTIVDA, 44% were ≥ 65 years of age and 9% were ≥ 75 of age. No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between patients ≥ 65 versus < 65 years of age.
No dosage modification is recommended for patients with mild to severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CLcr] 15-89 mL/min, estimated by Cockcroft-Gault). The recommended dosage for patients with end-stage renal disease has not been established [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
Page 12
Reduce the dosage when administering FOTIVDA in patients with moderate (total bilirubin greater than 1.5 to 3 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. No dosage modification is recommended for patients with mild (total bilirubin less than or equal to ULN with AST greater than ULN or total bilirubin greater than 1 to 1.5 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment. The recommended dosage of FOTIVDA in patients with severe (total bilirubin greater than 3 to 10 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment has not been established[seeClinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
Overdosage with FOTIVDA can cause severe hypertension and hypertensive crisis that may result in death[see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5.1)].
During clinical studies, three patients inadvertently received doses ≥ 2.68 mg (≥ 2 times the recommended dose) of FOTIVDA. One patient who received two daily doses of 8.9 mg of FOTIVDA experienced hypertensive crisis with severe hypertensive retinopathy; a second patient who received three doses of 1.34 mg in one day experienced fatal uncontrolled hypertension; and a third patient who received two doses of 1.34 mg FOTIVDA in one day experienced persistent hypertension lasting over 5 days.
There is no specific treatment or antidote for FOTIVDA overdose.
In cases of suspected overdose, withhold FOTIVDA, closely monitor patients for hypertension and hypertensive crisis and other potential adverse reactions. Immediately manage signs or symptoms of hypertension and provide other supportive care as clinically indicated.
Tivozanib is a kinase inhibitor. Tivozanib hydrochloride, the active ingredient, has the chemical name 1-{2-chloro-4-[(6,7-dimethoxyquinolin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl}-3-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)urea hydrochloride hydrate. The molecular formula is C22H19ClN4O5 • HCl • H2O and the molecular weight is 509.34 Daltons. The chemical structure is:

Tivozanib hydrochloride is a white to light brown crystalline powder that is practically insoluble in water (0.09 mg/mL).
Page 13
FOTIVDA 1.34 mg capsule contains 1.5 mg of tivozanib hydrochloride (equivalent to 1.34 mg tivozanib) with inactive ingredients: mannitol and magnesium stearate. Capsule composition: gelatin, titanium dioxide, FDA yellow iron oxide, and Blue SB-6018 (ink).
FOTIVDA 0.89 mg capsule contains 1.0 mg of tivozanib hydrochloride (equivalent to 0.89 mg tivozanib) with inactive ingredients: mannitol and magnesium stearate. Capsule composition: gelatin, titanium dioxide, FDA yellow iron oxide, FD&C Blue #2, Blue SB-6018 (ink) and Yellow SB-3017 (ink). The Yellow SB-3017 ink contains FD&C Yellow No.5 (tartrazine).
Tivozanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In vitro cellular kinase assays demonstrated that tivozanib inhibits phosphorylation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-1, VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 and inhibits other kinases including c-kit and PDGFR β at clinically relevant concentrations. In tumor xenograft models in mice and rats, tivozanib inhibited angiogenesis, vascular permeability, and tumor growth of various tumor cell types including human renal cell carcinoma.
Exposure-Response Relationship
Tivozanib exposure-response relationships and the time course of pharmacodynamic response have not been fully characterized.
Cardiac Electrophysiology
At the recommended dose of FOTIVDA, no large mean increases (i.e., 20 msec) in QTc interval were observed.
The pharmacokinetics of tivozanib were evaluated in patients with solid tumors administered
1.34 mg once daily unless otherwise specified. Steady-state tivozanib AUC and Cmax increased in a dose-proportional manner over the dose range of 0.89 to 1.78 mg once daily (0.67 to 1.3 times the recommended dose).
Steady-state was reached by 14 days and the accumulation ratio after administration of 1.34 mg once daily was approximately 6- to 7- fold. Mean steady-state tivozanib [coefficient of variation (CV%)] Cmax was 86.9 (44.7%) ng/mL and AUC0-24h was 1510 (46.1%) ng*h/mL.
Absorption
The median Tmax of tivozanib is 10 hours with a range of 3 to 24 hours.
Effect of Food
No clinically significant differences in tivozanib AUC or Cmax were observed following administration of a high fat meal (approximately 500-600 fat calories, 250 carbohydrate calories and 150 protein calories) in healthy subjects.
Distribution
Page 14
The apparent volume of distribution (V/F) of tivozanib is 123 L.
Protein binding of tivozanib is ≥ 99%, primarily to albumin in vitro and is independent of concentration. The mean blood-to-plasma concentration ratios ranged from 0.495 to 0.615 in healthy subjects.
Elimination
The apparent clearance (CL/F) of tivozanib is 0.75 L/h and the half-life is 111 hours.
Metabolism
Tivozanib is metabolized predominantly by CYP3A4. Following oral administration of a single radiolabeled 1.34 mg dose of tivozanib to healthy subjects, unchanged tivozanib constituted 90% of the radioactive drug components in serum.
Excretion
Following oral administration of a single radiolabeled 1.34 mg dose of tivozanib to healthy subjects, 79% of the administered dose was recovered in feces (26% unchanged) and 12% in urine (unchanged tivozanib not detected).
Specific Populations
No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of tivozanib were observed based on age (18 years to 88 years), sex, race (93% Caucasian, 3% African American, 2% Asian, 2% others), body weight (39 kg to 158 kg), mild to severe renal impairment (CLcr 15-89 mL/min as estimated by Cockcroft-Gault) or mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin less than or equal to ULN with AST greater than ULN or total bilirubin greater than 1 to 1.5 times ULN with any AST). The effect of end-stage renal disease or severe hepatic impairment on tivozanib pharmacokinetics is unknown [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6, 8.7)].
Patients with Hepatic Impairment
Compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, tivozanib AUCtau increased by 1% in patients with mild (total bilirubin less than or equal to ULN with AST greater than ULN or total bilirubin greater than 1 to 1.5 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment. Compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, tivozanib AUCtau increased by 62% in patients with moderate (total bilirubin greater than 1.5 to 3 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment. The effect of severe (total bilirubin greater than 3 to 10 times ULN with any AST) hepatic impairment on tivozanib pharmacokinetics has not been studied [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.7)].
Drug Interaction Studies
Clinical Studies
Strong CYP3A Inducers: Concomitant use of multiple doses of rifampin (strong CYP3A inducer) did not change tivozanib Cmax but decreased tivozanib AUC0-INF by 52%.
Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of tivozanib were observed when multiple doses of ketoconazole (strong CYP3A inhibitor) was coadministered with tivozanib.
In Vitro Studies
Page 15
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Tivozanib does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 at clinically relevant concentrations. Tivozanib does not induce CYP1A, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP3A at clinically relevant concentrations.
Uridine Diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyl Transferase (UGT) Enzymes: Tivozanib does not inhibit UGT at clinically relevant concentrations.
Transporter Systems: Tivozanib inhibits BCRP but does not inhibit P-gp, OCT1, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, BSEP, OAT1, OAT3, OCT2, MATE1 or MATE2-K at clinically relevant concentrations. Tivozanib is not a substrate for P-gp, MRP2, BCRP, OCT1, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, or BSEP.
13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with tivozanib.
Tivozanib was not mutagenic in a bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay and was not clastogenic in an in vitro cytogenetic assay in Chinese hamster ovary cells or in an in vivo mouse bone marrow micronucleus assay.
In animal studies assessing mating and fertility parameters, oral doses ≥ 0.03 mg/kg/day (0.2 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis) in rats were associated with increased epididymis and testis weights, and doses ≥ 0.3 mg/kg/day (2 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis) reduced mating and produced infertility. An increase in embryo lethality was noted at doses ≥ 0.1 mg/kg/day (0.7 times the maximum recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis).
The efficacy of FOTIVDA was evaluated in TIVO-3 (NCT02627963), a randomized (1:1), open- label, multicenter trial of FOTIVDA versus sorafenib in patients with relapsed or refractory advanced RCC who received 2 or 3 prior systemic treatments including at least one VEGFR kinase inhibitor other than sorafenib or tivozanib. Patients were randomized to receive FOTIVDA 1.34 mg orally once daily for 21 days on treatment followed by 7 days off treatment for a 28-day cycle, or to receive sorafenib 400 mg orally twice a day continuously, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Randomization was stratified by prior therapy [two kinase inhibitors (KIs), a KI plus an immune checkpoint inhibitor, or a KI plus other systemic agents] and by International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) prognostic score. Patients were excluded if they had more than 3 prior treatments or Central Nervous System metastases. The main efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by a blinded independent radiology review committee. Other efficacy endpoints were objective response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS).
The median age was 63 years (range: 30 to 90 years), 73% were male, 95% were Caucasian, ECOG performance status was 0 in 48% and 1 in 49% of patients (respectively), and 98% of patients had clear cell or clear cell component histology. Prior therapy included two KIs (45%), a KI plus an immune checkpoint inhibitor (26%), and a KI plus another systemic agent (29%). At the time of study entry, 20% of patients had favorable, 61% intermediate, and 19% poor IMDC prognoses.
