• Hyperglycemia: TRUQAP can cause severe hyperglycemia, including diabetic ketoacidosis and fatal outcomes. Evaluate blood glucose levels and hemoglobin A1C prior to starting and at regular intervals during treatment. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity. ( 2.2 , 2.5 , 5.1 ) • Diarrhea: TRUQAP caused diarrhea in most patients. Advise patients to increase oral fluids, start antidiarrheal treatment, and consult with a healthcare provider if diarrhea occurs while taking TRUQAP. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity. • Cutaneous Adverse Reactions: Monitor for signs and symptoms of cutaneous adverse reactions. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity. • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: TRUQAP can cause fetal harm. Advise patients of potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. Refer to the Full Prescribing Information of fulvestrant for pregnancy and contraception information. ( 5.4 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Hyperglycemia TRUQAP can cause severe hyperglycemia, including diabetic ketoacidosis and fatal outcomes. Withhold TRUQAP in clinical situations known to increase the risk of severe hyperglycemia or ketoacidosis (e.g., suspected serious infection or acute illness). Before initiating treatment with TRUQAP, test fasting glucose levels (FPG or FBG), HbA1C levels, and optimize fasting glucose. After initiating treatment with TRUQAP, monitor or self-monitor fasting glucose levels on Day 3 or 4 of the dosing week during weeks 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8; then monthly while on treatment with TRUQAP; and as clinically indicated. Monitor HbA1C levels every 3 months during treatment with TRUQAP and as clinically indicated and manage changes as appropriate. Patients with a history of well-controlled Type 2 diabetes mellitus may require intensified anti-hyperglycemic treatment and require close monitoring of fasting glucose levels. For patients who experience hyperglycemia during treatment with TRUQAP, monitor fasting glucose at least twice weekly, on days on and off TRUQAP, until fasting glucose decreases to baseline levels. During treatment with anti-diabetic medications, monitor fasting glucose at least once a week for 2 months, followed by once every 2 weeks, or as clinically indicated. Consider consultation with a healthcare practitioner with expertise in the treatment of hyperglycemia and initiation of fasting glucose monitoring at home for patients who have risk factors for hyperglycemia or who experience hyperglycemia. Advise patients of the signs and symptoms of hyperglycemia and counsel patients on lifestyle changes. Withhold TRUQAP immediately when ketoacidosis is suspected. If ketoacidosis is confirmed, permanently discontinue TRUQAP. The safety of TRUQAP has not been established in patients with Type 1 diabetes or Type 2 diabetes that is uncontrolled or requiring insulin at baseline as these patients were excluded from clinical studies . Based on the severity of the hyperglycemia, withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP . CAPItello 291 Increased fasting glucose from baseline occurred in 37% of patients treated with TRUQAP, including 11% of patients with Grade 2 (FG > 160 to 250 mg/dL), 2% with Grade 3 (FG > 250 to 500 mg/dL), and 1.1% with Grade 4 (FG > 500 mg/dL) events. The median time to first occurrence of hyperglycemia was 15 days (range: 1 to 367). Dose reduction for hyperglycemia was required in 0.6% of patients and permanent discontinuation was required in 0.6% of patients. Diabetic metabolic decompensation occurred in 0.6% of patients, including diabetic ketoacidosis in 0.3%. In CAPItello-291, 12% (43/355) of patients who received TRUQAP had an anti-hyperglycemic medication regimen either initiated or changed during the study, including treatment with insulin in 4.8% (17/355) of patients. CAPItello 281 Increased fasting glucose from baseline occurred in 69% of patients treated with TRUQAP, including 25% of patients with Grade 2 (FG > 160 to 250 mg/dL), 12% with Grade 3 (FG > 250 to 500 mg/dL), and 1.2% of patients with Grade 4 (FG > 500 mg/dL) events. The median time to first occurrence of hyperglycemia was 71 days (range: 1 to 1454). Dose reduction for hyperglycemia was required in 8.7% of patients and permanent discontinuation was required in 2.4% of patients. Diabetic ketoacidosis occurred in 1.2% of patients. In CAPItello 281, 41% (204/503) of patients who received TRUQAP had an anti-hyperglycemic medication regimen either initiated or changed during the study, including treatment with insulin in 16% (81/503) of patients
Diarrhea TRUQAP can cause severe diarrhea associated with dehydration. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of diarrhea. Advise patients to increase oral fluids and start antidiarrheal treatment at the first sign of diarrhea while taking TRUQAP. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity . CAPItello-291 Diarrhea occurred in 72% of patients. Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea occurred in 9% of patients. The median time to first occurrence was 8 days (range 1 to 519). In the 257 patients with diarrhea, 59% required anti-diarrheal medications to manage symptoms. Dose reductions were required in 8% of patients, and 2% of patients permanently discontinued TRUQAP due to diarrhea. In patients with Grade ≥ 2 diarrhea (n=93) with at least 1 grade improvement (n=89), median time to improvement from the first event was 4 days (range: 1 to 154). CAPItello 281 In CAPItello 281, diarrhea of any grade occurred in 264 (52%) patients, Grade 3 occurred in 31 (6%) patients and Grade 4 occurred in 1 (0.2%) patient. The median time to first occurrence was 12 days (range: 3 to 48). In the study, dose reductions were required in 26 (5%) patients and 6 (1.2%) patients discontinued TRUQAP due to diarrhea. In the 264 patients with diarrhea, anti-diarrheal medication was required in 64% (170/264) of patients to manage diarrhea symptoms
Cutaneous Adverse Reactions TRUQAP can cause cutaneous adverse reactions, which can be severe, including erythema multiforme (EM), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of cutaneous adverse reactions. Early consultation with a dermatologist is recommended. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue TRUQAP based on severity . CAPItello 291 Cutaneous adverse reactions occurred in 58% of patients. Grade 3 or 4 cutaneous adverse reactions occurred in 17% of patients receiving TRUQAP. EM occurred in 1.7% of patients, and DRESS occurred in 0.3% of patients. Dose reduction was required in 7% of patients and 7% of patients permanently discontinued TRUQAP due to cutaneous adverse reactions. The median time to onset of cutaneous adverse reactions was 13 days (range 1 to 575 days). Among the 204 patients with cutaneous adverse reactions, 44% (90/204) required corticosteroid treatment. Of these, 37% (76/204) were treated with topical corticosteroids and 19% (39/204) with systemic corticosteroids. In patients with Grade ≥ 2 cutaneous adverse reaction (n=116) with at least 1 grade improvement (n=104), median time to improvement from the first event was 12 days (range 2 to 544). CAPItello 281 Cutaneous adverse reactions occurred in 53% of patients. Grade 3 cutaneous adverse reactions occurred in 84 (17%) patients and Grade 4 occurred in 1 (0.2%) patient. In the study, dose reduction was required in 58 (12%) patients and 38 (8%) patients discontinued TRUQAP due to rash. The median time to onset of rash was 13 days (range: 11 to 63 days). Among the 265 patients with cutaneous adverse reactions, 80% (212/265) required treatment and 91% (242/265) recovered in the study. Of these, 54% (115/212) were treated with topical corticosteroids and 25% (54/212) with systemic corticosteroids
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on findings from animals and mechanism of action, TRUQAP can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman . In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of capivasertib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused adverse developmental outcomes, including embryo-fetal mortality, and reduced fetal weights at maternal exposures 0.7 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dosage of 400 mg twice daily. Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TRUQAP and for 1 month after the last dose. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TRUQAP and for 4 months after the last dose . TRUQAP is used in combination with fulvestrant or abiraterone. Refer to the Full Prescribing Information of fulvestrant or abiraterone for pregnancy and contraception information.
