`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`2.1 Recommended Dosage
`
`The recommended dosage is taken orally once daily with food. Swallow tablets whole. Do not cut, crush, break or
`
`

`
`
`Preparation Instructions for BOSULIF Capsules Mixed with Applesauce or Yogurt
`
`
`
`
`
`
`For patients who are unable to swallow capsules, the contents of the capsules can be mixed with applesauce or
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`yogurt. Remove the required number of capsules from the container to prepare the dose as instructed and the amount of
`
`
`either room temperature applesauce or yogurt in a clean container. Carefully open each capsule, add the entire capsule
`
`
`content of each capsule into the applesauce or yogurt, then mix the entire dose into the applesauce or yogurt. Patients
`
`
`
`
`
`should immediately consume the full mixture in its entirety, without chewing. Do not store the mixture for later use. If the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`entire preparation is not swallowed do not take an additional dose. Wait until the next day to resume dosing.

`
`
`
`2.2 Dose Escalation
`
`In clinical studies of adult patients with Ph+ CML, dose escalation by increments of 100 mg once daily to a
`
`
`
`maximum of 600 mg once daily was allowed in patients who did not achieve or maintain a hematologic, cytogenetic, or
`
`
`
`
`molecular response and who did not have Grade 3 or higher adverse reactions at the recommended starting dosage.
`
`
`
`
`
`In pediatric patients with BSA <1.1 m2 and an insufficient response after 3 months consider increasing dose by
`
`
`
`50 mg increments up to maximum of 100 mg above starting dose. Dose increases for insufficient response in pediatric
`
`
`
`
`
`patients with BSA ≥1.1 m2 can be conducted similarly to adult recommendations in 100 mg increments.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The maximum dose in pediatric and adult patients is 600 mg once daily.
`
`
`2.3 Dosage 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 National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (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 a dose reduced by 100 mg taken once daily. If clinically
`
`appropriate, consider re-escalating the dose of BOSULIF to the starting dose taken once daily.
`
`
`
`In pediatric patients, dose adjustments for non-hematologic toxicities can be conducted similarly to adults, however
`
`
`
`the dose reduction increments may differ. For pediatric patients with BSA <1.1 m2, reduce dose by 50 mg initially

`
` Withhold BOSULIF until ANC greater than or equal to1000×106/L and
`
`
`
`
`
`
` platelets greater than or equal to 50,000×106/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, or by 50 mg in pediatric
`
`
`patients with BSA <1.1 m2 and resume treatment.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`If cytopenia recurs, reduce dose by an additional 100 mg upon recovery and
`
`
`
`
`resume treatment, or by an additional 50 mg in pediatric patients with BSA
` <1.1 m2 and resume treatment.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` followed by additional 50 mg increment if the adverse reaction (AR) persists. For pediatric patients with BSA ≥1.1 m2 or
`
`
` greater, reduce dose similarly to adults.

`
`
`
` CONTRAINDICATIONS
`
` BOSULIF is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to BOSULIF. Reactions have included
`
` anaphylaxis [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
`
`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 randomized clinical trial in adult patients with newly-diagnosed Ph+ CML, the median time to onset for
`
`
`
`diarrhea (all grades) was 4 days and the median duration per event was 3 days.
`
`
`
`
`
`Among 546 adult patients in a single-arm study in patients with CML who were resistant or intolerant to prior
`
`
`therapy, the median time to onset for diarrhea (all grades) was 2 days and the median duration per event was 2 days.
`
`Among the patients who experienced diarrhea, the median number of episodes of diarrhea per patient during treatment
`
`with BOSULIF was 3 (range 1-268).
`
`
`
`
`Among 49 pediatric patients with newly-diagnosed CP Ph+ CML or who had CP Ph+ CML that was resistant or
`
`
`
`intolerant to prior therapy, the median time to onset for diarrhea (all grades) was 2 days and the duration was 2 days.
`
`
`Among patients who experienced diarrhea, the median number of episodes of diarrhea per patient during treatment with
`
`
`BOSULIF was 2 (range 1 – 198).
`
`
`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
`
`
`Bosutinib may cause elevations in serum transaminases (alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate
`
`aminotransferase [AST]).
`
`
`Two cases 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) have occurred
`
`
`
`
`
`
`without alternative causes. This represented 2 out 1711 patients in BOSULIF clinical trials.
`
`
`
`In the 268 adult patients from the safety population in the randomized clinical trial in patients with newly-diagnosed
`
`
`CML in the BOSULIF treatment group, the incidence of ALT elevation was 68.3% and increased AST was 56%. Of
`
`
`
`patients who experienced increased transaminases of any grade, 73% experienced their first increase within the first
`
`
`
`
`3 months. The median time to onset of increased ALT and AST was 29 and 56 days, respectively, and the median
`
`duration was 19 and 15 days, respectively.
`
`
`
`Among the 546 adult patients in a single-arm study in patients with CML who were resistant or intolerant to prior
`
`
`
`
`therapy, the incidence of increased ALT was 53.3% and AST elevation was 46.7%. Sixty percent of the patients
`
`
`
`
`experienced an increase in either ALT or AST. Most cases of transaminase elevations in this study occurred early in
`
`
`
`
`treatment; of patients who experienced increased transaminases of any grade, more than 81% experienced their first
`
`increase within the first 3 months. The median time to onset of increased ALT and AST was 22 and 29 days, respectively,
`
`and the median duration for each was 21 days.
`
`
`
`
`Among 49 pediatric patients with newly-diagnosed CP Ph+ CML or who had CP Ph+ CML that was resistant or
`
`
`
`
`
`intolerant to prior therapy, the incidence based on laboratory data that worsened from baseline of increased ALT was 59%
`
`
`
`
`and of increased AST 51%. Seventy-six percent of the patients experienced an increase in either ALT or AST. Most cases
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of increased transaminases occurred early in treatment; of patients who experienced increased transaminases of any grade,
`
`
`
`
`84% of patients experienced their first increases within the first 3 months. The median time to onset for adverse reactions
`
`
`
`of increased ALT and AST was 22 and 15 days, respectively. The median duration for adverse reactions of Grade 3 or 4
`increased ALT or AST was 26 and 12 days, respectively.
`
`
`
`Perform hepatic enzyme tests monthly for the first 3 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)].

`

`
`
`5.4 Cardiovascular Toxicity
`
`
`
`
`
`
`BOSULIF can cause cardiovascular toxicity including cardiac failure, left ventricular dysfunction, and cardiac
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ischemic events. Cardiac failure events occurred more frequently in previously treated patients than in patients with newly
`
`
`
`diagnosed CML and were more frequent in patients with advanced age or risk factors, including previous medical history
`
`
`
`of cardiac failure. Cardiac ischemic events occurred in both previously treated patients and in patients with newly
`
`
`
`diagnosed CML and were more common in patients with coronary artery disease risk factors, including history of
`
`
`diabetes, body mass index greater than 30, hypertension, and vascular disorders.
`
`
`
`
`
`In a randomized study of adult patients with newly diagnosed CML, cardiac failure occurred in 1.9% of patients
`
`
`
`treated with BOSULIF compared to 0.8% of patients treated with imatinib. Cardiac ischemic events occurred in 4.9% of
`
`patients treated with BOSULIF compared to 0.8% of patients treated with imatinib.
`
`
`
`
`
`In a single-arm study in adult patients with CML who were resistant or intolerant to prior therapy, cardiac failure
`
`
`
`
`
`
`was observed in 5.3% of patients and cardiac ischemic events were observed in 4.9% of patients treated with BOSULIF.
`
`
`
`
`Among 49 pediatric patients with newly diagnosed CP Ph+ CML or who had CP Ph+ CML that was resistant or
`
`
`
`intolerant to prior therapy, 4 (8%) patients had Grade 1-2 cardiac events, including tachycardia (n=2), angina pectoris,
`
`
`right bundle branch block, and sinus tachycardia (n=1 each).
`
`
`
`Monitor patients for signs and symptoms consistent with cardiac failure and cardiac ischemia and treat as clinically
`indicated. Interrupt, dose reduce, or discontinue BOSULIF as necessary [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
`
`
`5.5 Fluid Retention
`Fluid retention occurs with BOSULIF and may manifest as pericardial effusion, pleural effusion, pulmonary edema,
`
`
`and/or peripheral edema.
`
`
`In the randomized clinical trial of 268 adult patients with newly-diagnosed CML in the bosutinib treatment group,
`
`
`
`
`
`3 patients (1.1%) experienced severe fluid retention of Grade 3, 1 patient experienced Grade 3 pericardial effusion, and
`
`
`2 patients experienced Grade 3 pleural effusion.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Among 546 adult patients in a single-arm study in patients with Ph+ CML who were resistant or intolerant to prior
`
`
`
`
`
`
`therapy, Grade 3 or 4 fluid retention was reported in 30 patients (6%). Some patients experienced more than one fluid
`
`
`
`retention event. Specifically, 24 patients experienced Grade 3 or 4 pleural effusions, 9 patients experienced Grade 3 or
`
`
`Grade 4 pericardial effusions, and 6 patients experienced Grade 3 edema.
`
`
`
`
`Among 49 pediatric patients with newly diagnosed CP Ph+ CML or who had CP Ph+ CML that was resistant or
`
`
`
`intolerant to prior therapy, Grade 1-2 pericardial effusion, peripheral edema, and face edema were reported in 1 patient
`
`each.
`
`
`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)].
`
`
`
`
`5.6 Renal Toxicity
`
`
`An on-treatment decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) has occurred in patients treated with
`
`
`BOSULIF. Table 5 identifies the shift from baseline to lowest observed eGFR during BOSULIF therapy for patients in the
`
`
`
`pooled leukemia studies regardless of line of therapy. The median duration of therapy with BOSULIF was approximately
`
`
`24 months (range, 0.03 to 155) for patients in these studies.

`
`
` Notes: eGFR was calculated using Modification in Diet in Renal Disease method (MDRD).
`
`
` Notes: Grading is based on Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (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 1372 patients, eGFR was missing in 7 patients at baseline or on-therapy. There were no patients with kidney failure at
`
`
`
`
` baseline.
`
`
`
`
`Overall, 45% of the pediatric patients with newly diagnosed CP Ph+ CML or resistant or intolerant CP Ph+ CML
`
`
`
`
`
`who had normal eGFR at baseline shifted to a maximum of mild, and 40% pediatric patients who had mild eGFR at
`
`
`baseline shifted to a maximum of moderate during treatment.
`
`
`
`
`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 (2.5)].

`
`5.7 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
`
`
`Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, BOSULIF can cause fetal harm when
`
`
`
`
`
`administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data in pregnant women to inform the drug-associated risk. In
`
`
`animal reproduction studies conducted in rats and rabbits, oral administration of bosutinib during organogenesis caused
`
`
`
`
`adverse developmental outcomes, including structural abnormalities, embryo-fetal mortality, and alterations to growth at
`
`
`
`
`
`maternal exposures (AUC) as low as 1.2 times the human exposure at the dose of 500 mg/day. Advise pregnant women of
`
`
`
`the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and
`
`
`
`for 2 weeks after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)].
