`
`
`FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION
`
`
`1
`
` INDICATIONS AND USAGE
`
`BOSULIF is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with chronic, accelerated, or blast phase Philadelphia
`chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy.
`
`
`DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
`2.1 Recommended Dosing
`
`The recommended dose and schedule of BOSULIF is 500 mg orally once daily with food. Continue treatment with
`
`BOSULIF until disease progression or patient intolerance.
`If a dose is missed beyond 12 hours, the patient should skip the dose and take the usual prescribed dose on the
`following day.
`2.2 Dose Escalation
`
`Consider dose escalation to 600 mg once daily with food in patients who do not reach complete hematological
`response (CHR) by week 8 or a complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) by week 12, who did not have Grade 3 or higher
`adverse reactions, and who are currently taking 500 mg daily.
`
`
`2.3 Dose Adjustments for Non-Hematologic Adverse Reactions
`
`Elevated liver transaminases: If elevations in liver transaminases greater than 5×institutional upper limit of normal
`(ULN) occur, withhold BOSULIF until recovery to less than or equal to 2.5×ULN and resume at 400 mg once daily
`
`thereafter. If recovery takes longer than 4 weeks, discontinue BOSULIF. If transaminase elevations greater than or equal
`to 3×ULN occur concurrently with bilirubin elevations greater than 2×ULN and alkaline phosphatase less than 2×ULN
`(Hy’s law case definition), discontinue BOSULIF [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
`Diarrhea: For NCI CTCAE Grade 3-4 diarrhea (increase of greater than or equal to 7 stools/day over
`baseline/pretreatment), withhold BOSULIF until recovery to Grade less than or equal to 1. BOSULIF may be resumed at
`400 mg once daily [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
`For other clinically significant, moderate or severe non-hematological toxicity, withhold BOSULIF until the
`toxicity has resolved, then consider resuming BOSULIF at 400 mg once daily. If clinically appropriate, consider re-
`
`escalating the dose of BOSULIF to 500 mg once daily.
`
`2.4 Dose Adjustments for Myelosuppression
`
`Dose reductions for severe or persistent neutropenia and thrombocytopenia are described below (Table 1).
`
`2
`
`
`
`
`
` ANCa less than 1000x106/L
`
`or
`
`Platelets less than 50,000x106/L
`
`
`Table 1:
`
`Dose Adjustments for Neutropenia and Thrombocytopenia
`
`
`Withhold BOSULIF until ANC greater than or equal to1000x106/L and
`platelets greater than or equal to 50,000x106/L.
`
`Resume treatment with BOSULIF at the same dose if recovery occurs within
`2 weeks. If blood counts remain low for greater than 2 weeks, upon recovery,
`reduce dose by 100 mg and resume treatment.
`
`If cytopenia recurs, reduce dose by an additional 100 mg upon recovery and
`resume treatment.
`
`Doses less than 300 mg/day have not been evaluated.
`
`a Absolute Neutrophil Count
`
`
`
`2.5 Concomitant Use With CYP3A Inhibitors
`Avoid the concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A and/or P-gp inhibitors with BOSULIF as an increase in
`bosutinib plasma concentration is expected (strong CYP3A inhibitors include ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, saquinavir,
`
`ketoconazole, boceprevir, telaprevir, itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, clarithromycin, telithromycin, nefazodone
`and conivaptan. Moderate CYP3A inhibitors include fluconazole, darunavir, erythromycin, diltiazem, atazanavir,
`
`aprepitant, amprenavir, fosamprevir, crizotinib, imatinib, verapamil, grapefruit products and ciprofloxacin) [see Drug
`Interactions (7.1)].
`
`
`
`Reference ID: 3664292
`
`2
`
`
`
`
` 2.6 Concomitant Use With CYP3A Inducers
`
`Avoid the concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inducers with BOSULIF as a large reduction in exposure
`is expected (strong CYP3A inducers include rifampin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, St. John’s Wort, rifabutin and
`phenobarbital. Moderate CYP3A inducers include bosentan, nafcillin, efavirenz, modafinil and etravirine) [see Drug
`Interactions (7.2)].

`
`
`
`CONTRAINDICATIONS
`Hypersensitivity to BOSULIF. In the BOSULIF clinical trials, anaphylactic shock occurred in less than 0.2% of
`treated patients.
`
`5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`5.1 Gastrointestinal Toxicity
`Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain occur with BOSULIF treatment. Monitor and manage patients
`using standards of care, including antidiarrheals, antiemetics, and fluid replacement. In the single-arm Phase 1/2 clinical
`
`trial, the median time to onset for diarrhea (all grades) was 2 days and the median duration per event was 1 day. Among
`the patients who experienced diarrhea, the median number of episodes of diarrhea per patient during treatment with
`BOSULIF was 3 (range 1-221). To manage gastrointestinal toxicity, withhold, dose reduce, or discontinue BOSULIF as
`necessary [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Adverse Reactions (6)].
`
`5.2 Myelosuppression
`
`Thrombocytopenia, anemia and neutropenia occur with BOSULIF treatment. Perform complete blood counts
`
`weekly for the first month of therapy and then monthly thereafter, or as clinically indicated. To manage
`myelosuppression, withhold, dose reduce, or discontinue BOSULIF as necessary [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)
`
`and Adverse Reactions (6)].
`
`5.3 Hepatic Toxicity
`One case consistent with drug induced liver injury (defined as concurrent elevations in ALT or AST greater than or
`equal to 3×ULN with total bilirubin greater than 2×ULN and alkaline phosphatase less than 2×ULN) occurred in a trial of
`BOSULIF in combination with letrozole. The patient recovered fully following discontinuation of BOSULIF. This case
`
`represented 1 out of 1209 patients in BOSULIF clinical trials.
`In the 546 patients from the safety population, the incidence of ALT elevation was 17% and AST elevation was
`14%. Twenty percent of the patients experienced an increase in either ALT or AST. Most cases of transaminase elevations
`occurred early in treatment; of patients who experienced transaminase elevations of any grade, more than 80%
`experienced their first event within the first 3 months. The median time to onset of increased ALT and AST was 30 and
`33 days, respectively, and the median duration for each was 21 days.
`Perform hepatic enzyme tests monthly for the first three months of BOSULIF treatment and as clinically indicated.
`In patients with transaminase elevations, monitor liver enzymes more frequently. Withhold, dose reduce, or discontinue
`BOSULIF as necessary [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Adverse Reactions (6)].
`
`
`
`
`Reference ID: 3664292
`

`
`
`
`
`5.4 Fluid Retention
`Fluid retention occurs with BOSULIF and may manifest as pericardial effusion, pleural effusion, pulmonary edema,
`and/or peripheral edema.
`In the single-arm Phase 1/2 clinical trial in 546 patients with CML treated with prior therapy, severe fluid retention
`was reported in 14 patients (3%). Specifically, 9 patients had a Grade 3 or 4 pleural effusion, 3 patients experienced both
`Grade 3 or Grade 4 pleural and pericardial effusions, 1 patient experienced Grade 3 peripheral and pulmonary edema, and
`1 patient had a Grade 3 edema.
`
`Monitor and manage patients using standards of care. Interrupt, dose reduce or discontinue BOSULIF as necessary
`
`[see Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Adverse Reactions (6)].
`5.5 Renal Toxicity
`An on-treatment decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) has occurred in patients treated with
`
`BOSULIF. Table 2 identifies the shift from baseline to lowest observed estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) during
`BOSULIF therapy for patients in the global Ph+ Leukemia studies. The median duration of therapy with BOSULIF was
`approximately 17 months (range, 0.03 to 95) for patients in these studies.

`
`Notes: Grading is based on Modification in Diet in Renal Disease method (MDRD).
`
`
`
`KDIGO Classification by eGFR: Normal: greater than or equal to 90, Mild: 60 to less than 90, Mild to Moderate: 45 to less than
`60, Moderate to Severe: 30 to less than 45, Severe: 15 to less than 30, Kidney Failure: less than 15 ml/min/1.73 m2 .
`
`
`*Among the 818 patients, eGFR was missing in 5 patients at baseline or on-therapy. There were no patients with kidney failure at
`
`baseline.
`
`
`Monitor renal function at baseline and during therapy with BOSULIF, with particular attention to those patients
`
`who have preexisting renal impairment or risk factors for renal dysfunction. Consider dose adjustment in patients with
`baseline and treatment emergent renal impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.7)].
`
`5.6 Embryofetal Toxicity
`
`There are no adequate and well controlled studies of BOSULIF in pregnant women. BOSULIF can cause fetal harm
`
`when administered to a pregnant woman. Bosutinib caused embryofetal toxicities in rabbits at maternal exposures that
`were greater than the clinical exposure at the recommended bosutinib dose of 500 mg/day. Females of reproductive
`potential should be advised to avoid pregnancy while being treated with BOSULIF. If this drug is used during pregnancy,
`or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus
`
`[see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].
`
`ADVERSE REACTIONS
`
`The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling:
`
`
`
`
`6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
`Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical
`trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates
`observed in practice.
`
`Serious adverse reactions reported include anaphylactic shock [see Contraindications (4)], myelosuppression,
`gastrointestinal toxicity (diarrhea), fluid retention, hepatotoxicity and rash.
`Adverse reactions of any toxicity grade reported for greater than 20% of patients in the Phase 1/2 safety population
`
`(n=546) were diarrhea (82%), nausea (46%), thrombocytopenia (41%), vomiting (39%), abdominal pain (37%),
`rash (35%), anemia (27%), pyrexia (26%), and fatigue (24%) [see Clinical Studies (14)].
`
`Adverse Reactions in Patients with Imatinib-Resistant or -Intolerant Ph+ Chronic Phase (CP), Accelerated
`
`Phase (AP), and Blast Phase (BP) CML
`
`The single-arm Phase 1/2 clinical trial (Study 1) enrolled patients with Ph+ chronic, accelerated, or blast phase
`
`
`chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy [see Clinical Studies (14)]. The
`safety population (received at least 1 dose of BOSULIF) included 546 CML patients:
`
`
` 287 patients with CP CML previously treated with imatinib only who had a median duration of BOSULIF
`
`
`treatment of 24 months, and a median dose intensity of 484 mg/day.
`
`
` 119 patients with CP CML previously treated with both imatinib and at least 1 additional TKI who had a median
`
`duration of BOSULIF treatment of 9 months and a median dose intensity of 475 mg/day.
`
` 140 patients with advanced phase CML including 76 patients with AP CML and 64 patients with BP CML. In the
`patients with AP CML and BP CML, the median duration of BOSULIF treatment was 10 months and 3 months,
`respectively. The median dose intensity was 483 mg/day, and 500 mg/day, in the AP CML and BP CML cohorts,
`
`
`respectively.
`

`
`DRUG INTERACTIONS
`7.1 Drugs That May Increase Bosutinib Plasma Concentrations
`
`CYP3A or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors: Avoid the concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A and/or
`P-gp inhibitors with BOSULIF as an increase in bosutinib plasma concentration is expected [see Dosage and
`Administration (2.5)]. In a dedicated cross-over drug-interaction trial in healthy volunteers (N=24), concomitant
`
`ketoconazole (strong CYP3A inhibitor) increased bosutinib Cmax 5.2-fold and AUC 8.6-fold compared to BOSULIF alone
`[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

`
`
`
`
`7.2 Drugs That May Decrease Bosutinib Plasma Concentrations
`CYP3A Inducers: Avoid the concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inducers with BOSULIF as a large
`
`reduction in exposure is expected [see Dosage and Administration (2.6)]. In a dedicated cross-over drug-interaction trial
`in healthy volunteers (N=24), concomitant rifampin (strong CYP3A inducer) decreased bosutinib Cmax by 86% and AUC
`
`
`by 94% compared to BOSULIF alone [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
`Proton Pump Inhibitors: In a dedicated cross-over drug-interaction trial in healthy volunteers (N=24), concomitant
`
`
`lansoprazole (PPI) decreased bosutinib Cmax by 46% and AUC by 26% compared to BOSULIF alone [see Clinical
`
`Pharmacology (12.3)].
`Consider using short-acting antacids or H2 blockers instead of PPIs to avoid a reduction in bosutinib exposure.
`Separate antacid or H2 blocker dosing and BOSULIF dosing by more than 2 hours.
`7.3 Drugs That May Have Their Plasma Concentrations Altered By Bosutinib
`
` Substrates of P-glycoprotein: An in vitro study suggests that BOSULIF may have the potential to increase the
`plasma concentrations of drugs that are P-gp substrates, such as digoxin [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

`
`USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
`
`8.1 Pregnancy
`
`
`Pregnancy Category D [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]
`
`Based on its mechanism of action and findings in animals, BOSULIF can cause fetal harm when administered to a
`
`pregnant woman. Studies in animals showed reproductive toxicities. If BOSULIF is used during pregnancy, or if the
`patient becomes pregnant while taking BOSULIF, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.
`Fetal exposure to bosutinib-derived radioactivity during pregnancy was demonstrated in a placental-transfer study in
`pregnant rats. Bosutinib was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at doses of 1, 3 and
`10 mg/kg/day. This study did not expose pregnant rats to enough bosutinib to fully evaluate adverse outcomes.
`
`In a study conducted in rabbits, bosutinib was administered orally to pregnant animals during the period of
`
`organogenesis at doses of 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg/day. At the maternally-toxic dose of 30 mg/kg/day of bosutinib, there were
`
`fetal anomalies (fused sternebrae, and two fetuses had various visceral observations), and an approximate 6% decrease in
`
`fetal body weight. The dose of 30 mg/kg/day resulted in exposures (AUC) approximately 4 times those in humans at the
`
`500 mg/day dose of bosutinib.
`
`8.3 Nursing Mothers
`
`It is not known whether bosutinib is excreted in human milk. Bosutinib and/or its metabolites were excreted in the
`milk of lactating rats. Radioactivity was present in the plasma of suckling offspring 24 to 48 hours after lactating rats
`
`received a single oral dose of radioactive bosutinib. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the
`
`potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from BOSULIF, a decision should be made whether to
`discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
`
`8.4 Pediatric Use
`
`The safety and efficacy of BOSULIF in patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.
`8.5 Geriatric Use
`
`In the Phase 1/2 clinical trial of BOSULIF in patients with Ph+ CML, 20% were age 65 and over, 4% were 75 and
`over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients, and
`other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but
`greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.
`
`8.6 Hepatic Impairment
`
`Treat with a dose of 200 mg daily in patients with any baseline hepatic impairment. In a dedicated hepatic
`impairment trial, the exposure to bosutinib increased (Cmax increased 1.5- to 2.3-fold and the AUC increased 1.9- to
`2.4-fold) in patients with hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C; N=18) compared to matched healthy
`
`volunteers (N=9) [see Dosage and Administration (2.7), Adverse Reactions (6), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
`
`
`8.7 Renal Impairment
`
`Reduce the BOSULIF starting dose in patients with severe (CLcr less than 30 mL/min) or moderate (CLcr 30 to
`50 mL/min) renal impairment at baseline. For patients who have declining renal function while on BOSULIF who cannot
`tolerate a 500 mg dose, follow dose adjustment recommendations for toxicity. In a dedicated renal impairment trial,
`compared to subjects with normal renal function, the exposure (AUC) of bosutinib increased by 60% and 35% in subjects
`with CLcr less than 30 mL/min and CLcr 30 to 50 mL/min, respectively, compared to subjects with normal renal function
`[see Dosing and Administration (2.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
`
`BOSULIF has not been studied in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

`
`
`10 OVERDOSAGE
`
`Experience with BOSULIF overdose in clinical studies was limited to isolated cases. There were no reports of any
`serious adverse events associated with the overdoses. Patients who take an overdose of BOSULIF should be observed and
`given appropriate supportive treatment.
`
`11 DESCRIPTION
`
`Bosutinib is a kinase inhibitor. The chemical name for bosutinib monohydrate is 3-Quinolinecarbonitrile, 4-[(2,4

`12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
`
`12.1 Mechanism of Action
`
`Bosutinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Bosutinib inhibits the Bcr-Abl kinase that promotes CML; it is also an
`inhibitor of Src-family kinases including Src, Lyn, and Hck. Bosutinib inhibited 16 of 18 imatinib-resistant forms of
`Bcr-Abl expressed in murine myeloid cell lines. Bosutinib did no
