AUGTYRO Capsule Ref.[107392] Active ingredients: Repotrectinib

Source: FDA, National Drug Code (US)  Revision Year: 2024 

1. Indications and Usage

1.1 ROS1-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

AUGTYRO is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)].

1.2 NTRK Gene Fusion-Positive Solid Tumors

AUGTYRO is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with solid tumors that:

  • have a neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusion [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)],
  • are locally advanced or metastatic or where surgical resection is likely to result in severe morbidity, and
  • have progressed following treatment or have no satisfactory alternative therapy.

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s).

2. Dosage and Administration

2.1 Patient Selection

NSCLC

Select patients for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with AUGTYRO based on the presence of ROS1 rearrangement(s) in tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. An FDA-approved test to detect ROS1 rearrangements for selecting patients for treatment with AUGTYRO is not currently available.

Solid Tumors

Select patients for the treatment of solid tumors with AUGTYRO based on the presence of NTRK1/2/3 rearrangements in tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. An FDA-approved test to detect NTRK1/2/3 rearrangements for selecting patients for treatment with AUGTYRO is not currently available.

  • In patients with secretory breast cancer or mammary analogue secretory cancer, consider treatment without confirmation of NTRK rearrangements in tumor specimens.

2.2 Important Information Prior to Initiating AUGTYRO

Prior to initiating AUGTYRO, discontinue strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors for 3 to 5 elimination half-lives of the CYP3A inhibitor [see Drug Interactions (7.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

2.3 Recommended Evaluation and Testing Before Initiating AUGTYRO

Prior to initiation of AUGTYRO, evaluate:

  • liver function tests including bilirubin [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]
  • uric acid level [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]

2.4 Recommended Dosage

The recommended dosage of AUGTYRO for adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older is 160 mg taken orally once daily with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] for 14 days, then increase to 160 mg twice daily and continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

2.5 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions

The recommended dosage reductions of AUGTYRO for the management of adverse reactions are provided in Table 1.
